Journalists need to raise things like this whenever he attempts to sell his Man of the People schlock - and he will be trying to do a brisk trade in that in the coming months, of that we can always be assured.

Where are they going to? 58% of migrant departures of New Zealand citizens went to Australia. Going to a country with Fair Pay Agreements, a growing economy, low energy prices, and a capital gains taxation system. For some reason that doesn’t seem to so be unpopular.

ACT says: “BILL PASSED: Medicines approved in two trusted countries like the UK or the US will be fast-tracked for approval here.”

But: the US medical approval system currently cannot be trusted as it has been taken over by pseudo-scientists, grifters, & unqualified "yes people" ⬇️

1/n
I’d still like to see all other nations say clearly that at this point in time they are not using health and medicine advice from the affected US administrations,* owing to political interference or 'capture' by inappropriate people, and saying where they get their advice from.
NEW: The entire staff supporting ACIP was laid off, and most working groups haven't met in months.

That means the US may not make routine vaccine recommendations for more than half of children in 2026, and it could halt new vaccines in the pipeline. My latest:

A quick word on kindness - mentions still being a fan of kindness. Frames kindness as fundamental part of being human. Every day people engage in acts of kindness, and even more so when things are tough. Kindness builds trust and results in better performance overall.

At what point do we publicly accept that NZ is deeply corrupt and the only reason why we don’t have a culture of direct payoffs and bribery (that we cite as the evidence for us not being corrupt) is because it’s not needed? The boys club gets what it wants through people playing their social roles.

Solar’s price drop is astonishing: panels are now 98% cheaper than when I first analyzed them in 2004.

Today, building a fence with solar can be cheaper than using wood.
