Kiwis want their freedom back. We’ve been let down by this govt’s lethargy and a minority who refuse to get vaccinated. People need certainty and a plan - not uncertainty and spin. Start with ‘no-jab means no dole and no parole’. We’ve had enough of the hand-wringing.

NZ govt explains why it supports the two-state solution but will not recognise Palestine:

This is the person Stanford chose to rewrite our English curriculum, along with a handpicked group of acolytes. No role for our representative body - the Association for Teachers of English. Now "At the Marae' has been binned for 7 words in te reo Māori.

Hard as it may be to imagine Winston working with the Greens in his current posture, it's probably worth remembering that not long before this govt was formed, he was threatening to send David Seymour to the hospital.

One of the greatest journalists of all time. May his killers see justice one day.

هذه وصيّتي، ورسالتي الأخيرة. إن وصلَتكم كلماتي هذه، فاعلموا أن إسرائيل قد نجحت في قتلي وإسكات صوتي. بداية السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته يعلم الله أنني بذلت كل ما أملك من جهدٍ وقوة، لأكون سندًا وصوتًا لأبناء شعبي، مذ فتحت عيني على الحياة في أزقّة وحارات مخيّم جباليا للاجئين،

Weak as piss

Palestinian journalists are the bravest on earth. They know their work is a death sentence as Israel openly hunts them, yet they do it out of duty to their people and defiance of a world that ignores their suffering—heroism western media can’t fathom

Every week I think we’re hit rock bottom, but each week new lows by the NYT. Incitement to murder as editorial policy

Not satisfied with beclowning Parliament by imposing history's longest ban on three opposition MPs on a party-line vote, Brownlee is now just inventing indefinite open-ended punishments that are not specified in Standing Orders now rnz.co.nz/news/political…

Chloe was right, was right to say it & right not to apologize There are multiple govt MPs saying privately they know the govt position is deeply wrong but are putting *themselves* first when it comes to the greatest atrocity of the modern age. That's FAR more than just spineless

"It’s an ancient, spineless, endangered species that literally sucks the life of out of its host, leaving it an empty, useless shell. It’s a New Zealand First" Erica Stanford in the House 11 September 2018

wait. On Q+A, Stanford made it sound like the decision to remove Māori words came from experts because different phonics could be confusing- but it was her reckons? Is she qualified in reading pedagogy? how is word by word censoring of learning materials a Ministerial decision?

From pedophilia to genocide there really is no bottom to what david seymour will provide cover for

I stand with our prime minister and our country against this vicious attack. Where does our deputy prime minister stand?

People are giving Seymour shit about this (and so they should, he's a hypocrite and a cretin who deserves much more shit about everything) - but honestly I really did and do think we should have tried a bit more carrot before the big unemployment stick.

Imagine if a giraffe had wheels instead of feet
