This is not a slam at Cooke in particular - he does good stuff - but this quote gets at some of the issues with our political coverage.

Being equally critical of Ardern and Luxon is not in fact a sign of even-handedness.

I would like to see far less 'Can he win?' rubbish and much more 'What would it actually mean for the country if we gave the climate denying, asset stripping racists another term?' #nzpol

I feel like the best way to understand the Greenland situation is simply to substitute the word "Sudetenland" every time you time you read "Greenland"

The big lessons the US military is meant to have learned in the last 25 years are "don't do occupations" and "the more overt displays of force you do, the more people hate you, the more pushback you get, and the more of you will die"...
This guy is in Minneapolis standing before an American citizen in an SUV.

The only reason he's brandishing an assault rifle is because he wants the people he's purportedly there protecting to feel terrorized by his presence.

This is not protection. This is occupation.

We can just start naming and shaming NZ institutions who are still on (or say they're on) the nazi pedo site. For example, Parliament is still on the pedo site:

Does the PM not have a phone? Does he not know how to use Zoom, teams etc?

Do reporters also not know these things?

So, he's working from home...you can still interview him, ask him questions, get statements from him...

HOLD POWER TO ACCOUNT!!!

FFS!!!

Morbidly curious about the dynamic between Trump and Miller. Imagine those two in a room for an hour or two just talking shit.

Very different from, say, GWB and whoever you'd cast as Miller in such a secanrio.

Easy and funny to imagine GWB and Miller. Fuck Bush, but he'd yeet Miller

i think what's FUCKING FUNNY is that this is almost indistinguishable from most Stuff/NZME, even RNZ articles where the current government is asked for comment EXCEPT that it doesn't have 3 paragraphs verbatim from David Seymour

what 'brand' you wonder? oh, just the NZ National Party

We are now past the point where corporate media commentary and embedded advertising are justifiable. This is going to get MUCH worse over 2026 unless there are consequences

YMMV, but I think it should be more of a scandal that the Prime Minister or any Government minister is posting or pointing third parties to a site that apparently has ongoing issues with pornographic and violent extremist material. Great leadership folks! #nzpol

Thats $750 per road cone over 2 years. For comparison if you wanted to purchase a road cone theyre only $35.

The govt thats says theyre against wasteful spending is pissing your tax money down the drain like its nothing.
