A good time to remind that there was a great research project from the James Henare Research Centre, "Harirū, Hongi and Hau in the time of COVID-19"

Current coalition partner criticising the last govt, which he engaged in, is pretty much NZ1st summed up. Populist bollocks following votes wherever he can get em

Lil Simeon did not get the slam dunk he wanted lol.

Had these people been in power, I shudder thinking where we would be now as a country.

With every syllable from this fuckwit's mouth, I am again thankful that this party was not the govt throughout that time period.

BREAKING: Iran is planning to impose duties on tankers and ships in the Gulf, according to CNN report.

TBH, I lost faith in the party the way they dealt with these two MPs. And while I am happy my MP won their case, I don't know if her future with them is tenable.

I voted for the person over the party.

THIS. Tamatha Paul is right - but if you'd pardon my French it's a little fucking rich of media outlets like The Post who repeatedly laundered and amplified this kind of dirty politics to be riding the ethical high horse. #nzpol

Thank god we spent the last few years massively converting industry to renewables and incentivising household solar. We'd be in so much trouble right now.

The countries also in need of regime change are the ones who have undertaken and supported a genocide before launching an illegal war.

At some point the intl community needs to grow up and fight back against this imperialist shit.

Colonisers.

A Swiss kick in the ass.

Thousands of people in the UK took to the streets to call out the corrupt US and Israel on their illegal war of aggression in Iran.

A lot of this comes back to sons of Europe and their neverending thirst to colonise and oppress.

Shrug off polls all you want. What it shows is a disdain for those snapshots of sentiment. Instead of acknowledging, to brush it off reeks of “now listen to me plebs, i used to run an airline” vibes. But like any self entitled prick, he will expect your support in November. Out of touch.

Remember when the IDF had a squad dress up as medical personnel to enter a hospital and execute an injured man in his hospital bed

We had some clangers but this dude must be the most unrelatable PM we’ve had in a long minute. Every utterance is so out of cadence with reality (not the crowd he was swanning it with over the weekend ofc, great hat btw)

Herbs on the sounds this morning obvs. So embedded in life. Dobbs may have written the soundtrack to many a life but his tunes were always behind Herbs and Tui Teka around our ways. Bloody sad today.

I am thinking that the decrepit sack of dog mince Winston Peters went on radio yesterday and said the 2023 election results stopped NZ becoming a "Venezuela or Myanmar" and we're RATIONING DIALYSIS to hit an arbitrary spend target.
