Drs (and nurses, teachers too) only ever strike as an absolute last resort - and because they care about YOU and the service they can provide to you. Unsafe staffing impacts you. Exhausted Drs impacts you. Underpaid Drs means they LEAVE.
I stand with our Drs today, and always.

New Zealand's Chief Human Rights Commissioner Stephen Rainbow shows remarkable, albeit reprehensible consistency: championing bigotry from transphobia at Auckland Transport to Islamophobia in current role. The man tasked with protecting minorities seems oddly committed to marginalising them instead.

Labour's objective is (and has been the entire MMP era) to paint themselves as the responsible party of governance and procedure, and this term their overriding focus is dismissing the government's agenda as unserious. But they keep failing to identify *the harm* being done. And you can do both!
