NZF was 6.08% party vote in 2023, with no electorate MPs. Winston has been the architect of all its stints in govt & returns to govt. Without him, they’ll struggle & they’ve really failed to set up any convincing new potential leadership.

I think NZF is gone without Winston. Jones has tried to emulate Winston’s populism but he doesn’t have the skill.

It’s a deliberate ‘fuck you’ move though. Displaying bad taste proudly is quintessential rich prick behaviour.

Well I’m no Andre the Giant. I’m just regular tall guy!

I think there’s some weird camera distortion in that shot making the shoes look elongated cause aren’t these the same shoes?

Kudos to those companies who respect the single click to unsubscribe ethic and a curse on those companies that bury it behind multiple verification methods to access ‘accounts’ you didn’t know existed to simply ‘manage your email preferences’. Looking at you Bose.

ED doctors are obviously over worked, but deploying unproven, potentially dangerous tech solutions instead of, I dunno … funding the healthcare system properly, is an admission of defeat not some great innovation.

Alas it lacks the magnetic strength to act as a pet stand.
