Act knew there would be enough white supremacists to get rid of a lot of Māori wards and they were right.
Early progress votes indicate the region has voted to remove the seat from the council table in 2028.

Because as soon as one influential investor asks "what are we doing exactly?" the whole bubble pops. Therefore, asking this question must never be allowed.
In this conceptual framework, line can only go up, and will go up forever.

Last local elections VFF encouraged people to run for local council. Their plan was semi-successful, electing dozens of councillors and board members. This time around, they're far more organised. Read: www.thepost.co.nz/politics/360...

Worth expressly noting that the ONLY reason given in Peters' speech for why AoNZ should recognise Israel and not Palestine as a state is that Palestine "does not control its own territory". So, we reward Israel for its illegal actions + will keep doing so until it chooses to stop.

We can never, ever, ever claim moral high ground as a State ever again. This is a stain that we will never be able to remove. I don't actually know if I believe in a soul, but if our country has one, it has been irreparably damaged.

Basically it seems to be enabling a bunch of busywork for civil servants about legislation and then David Seymour and his lackeys will inquire into whether or not you're being Good Little Libertarians about it. Fuck OFF

So either me in the past or a ghost wrote "Fuck" on my window, and it reappeared to me this morning on the cold ass crying window.

My new little mountain forest terrariums delight me in about 50 different ways, not least of which is that Hebe (cat) can't eat them.
Both have little Kahikatea Seedlings in them. Buying some good rocks, smashing them up, and gluing them back together, was a massive upgrade for my setups. 🌱
