Dr Ayesha Verrall's repeated challenging of Dr Reti's trying to hide from basic health questions,under the fatuous guise of them operational matters, is exposed. Trying to avoid such questions is as cowardly as Luxon in confronting them openly & honestly.

Bad floods in Male’ today. If we continue to heat the planet we will see more of these. Maldives cannot expect any Loss and Damage funds. We had no part in causing this but have to pay for it. That is the injustice of climate change.

Disappointing start from Simeon Brown. Among the"everyday Kiwis" who make up the health workforce are tens of thousands of union members & delegates who, along with the "everyday Kiwis" who rely on them for care, deserve a lot better than this tired, old divisive rhetoric.

🏥 Good that tertiary teaching inpatient hospital build will be restarted on consented, remediated land with piles in the ground next to the built outpatients building. Bad that (including shelling) there will be fewer beds and theatres. Thread 🧵 thespinoff.co.nz/politics/01-02…

Our Te Atatu MP Phil Twyford has made a formal complaint to Charities Services that says Destiny Church has engaged in serious wrongdoing which is grounds for Destiny’s charities losing their tax deductible status under the Charities Act 2005. 💪

National finally funding its medical school places a year later than promised, and half the 100 places they describe were funded by Labour.

It’s past time Te Whatu Ora Health NZ returned to transparent governance and replaced the destructive Lester Levy with a board. Here’s what I wrote to Minister Simeon Brown on how we could approach this constructively together for the good of our health system.

Hard to believe news coming out of #NZ these days. Country now has a Minister of Health who wants to restrict public health professionals in Ministry of Health speaking out on #socialdeterminants of health. Addressing those is critical to improving health. stuff.co.nz/politics/36061…

Public health doctors say Simeon Brown is meddling in the submissions they can make and it's having a "chilling effect". Doctors and health experts should be free to do their job without being micro-managed by Simeon Brown.

Dark day for New Zealand women as Government announces it will repeal pay equity law and even extinguish existing claims in an unconstitutional overreach. Game on to fight against this!

You can’t trust National with ACC. After to pulling back on this yesterday, the Minister for ACC confirmed today he stands by his statement that it is a "live and current" question as to whether the Government might cut ACC eligibility for survivors of sexual violence.

Predator Free 2050 is being disestablished. They’ve cleared pests from 100,000 hectares and they are working on another 650,000 hectares. They were on track to meet the 2050 goal. Their work led to a 71% increase in native birds in Wellington. rnz.co.nz/national/progr…

Up and down the country people in genuine need are being declined emergency housing. The Government denies this was to save money, but yesterday’s budget confirmed a $1b funding cut. They’ve made people homeless to pay for tax cuts for landlords. thepress.co.nz/nz-news/360694…
