Stuff covered our current scores for Aotearoa here, with comments and context from a range of experts: www.thepost.co.nz/nz-news/3503...

The budget doesn’t seem to address any of these longstanding concerns.

Sadly, it looks like we'll be publishing bad scores for NZ for years to come.

Over the last two weeks I’ve noticed an increase of people out in public hacking up their lungs, sniffling and sneezing. I DON’T WANT WHATEVER YOU’VE GOT.

Not to mention loads of my kids’ classmates and teachers sick at the moment.

We’ve learned nothing.

Also remember, look out of your window, go look at the damage a major storm does...

And our current gov has cancelled every climate related policy we had, and now has just $300m in contingency money in their budget

Why it works:
🔹 The public is swayed by perceived consensus
🔹 Politicians respond to visible “public demand”
🔹 Media often fails to distinguish real grassroots from astroturf

👉 We trust crowds — even fake ones
