We need a strong, funded response now like the Ardern government made after the previous National-led government pissed around instead.

NZ now has a narrow window to stop the Asian yellow-legged hornet – here’s how everyone can help
Unless New Zealand rapidly scales up its search effort, we could soon be confronting an incursion far tougher and costlier to stamp out.

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.
This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

So ... the government just forced us all to have referendums on *existing* Māori wards because Local Communities Deserve Choice, but now they're unilaterally abolishing our regional councils because they don't like the Choices we made?

If they can ban access to healthcare like puberty blockers for one group of people, they can do this with any healthcare for their next target. They will ban abortion again given the chance and they will come after contraception after that. The anti-choice movement is our govt right now. #nzpol

And lastly,the old rationale that privatisation allows for "mum & dad" investors is also bogus.
1. Most investors in state asset sales are corporates.
2. Mum & dads can barely afford a block of cheese or PAYING FOR HIGHER POWER BILLS,never mind buying shares.
Watch out for the coming BS.

* Free dental care
* Income support increases
* Building 35,000 new homes
* Residential clean power subsidies
* Unwinding pretty much all of Luxon's cuts
...and more.
