Outrageous.
Ministers should be listening to scientists, frontline communities and those working towards a green transition – not hosting the interests of oil giants in their own offices.

Thread. Please understand why we have to fight these “digital safety” laws.
Congress is about to make a huge push into online ID verification, entrenching the power of big tech and mandating that they collect even MORE data on users. Mass surveillance/censorship laws are being framed as “child safety” but they’re really abt at removing LGBTQ ppl, repro justice info, etc.

This is what happens when the people with all the power work in your town but don't live in your town.
Luke Pierson: "What we don’t have here is perfection. But what we do have, is a chance to fix a longstanding transport challenge for Wellington."
