I saw this #nzpol & thought of David Seymour
I find him morally repugnant in IMO he'd only jump in & save a drowning child if he was "being seen to do so"
Seymour is morally inconsistent, he'd save businesses any day but only save children if compelled by social norms

Hey Chris Hipkins....this is what leadership looks like. There is no place for middle ground, look at the people here who are hurting & make them the fire in your belly or move aside for someone who will.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.
When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

Climate change was hardly mentioned in the last election cycle. The current government is intent on rolling back commitments.
"If they can’t meet the target, they should admit it and fix the policy - not change the target."
I hope Labour will hold to this at the next election. #nzpol

PM tells jobless youth to leave to find a job. So they are going. To Australia.
PM says: "If you want a job, you go where the jobs are." He points to 'plenty of jobs' in horticulture in Hawkes Bay. Hipkins says: "NZers are hearing that signal & leaving the country - 200 a day."

There may have been "a million stories in the naked city" but this was not one of them, however let me tell you about...
When we lived in Southland there were a lot of retail & hospitality jobs that had artificially suppressed wages.

What sectors are barely paying more than minimum wage?

NZ might have a dozen sectors paying at least a median $100,000 a year, but there are almost as many paying barely more than the minimum wage

The more we allow wealth & power to accumulate at the top the worse off the lower 3/4 of the population are.
The money from our rents & our food & more are going to the top tier & were left trying to subsist on lower wages & part time work.

Wondering why grocery prices are high?
Little-to-no competition across the entire food supply chain allows for a price gouging free-for-all.
Corporate monopolies get rich, and we pay the tab.
What is Trump doing about it? Nothing.
