A govt seriously concerned with good faith would have a care for the quality of the bills it introduced to Parliament, and refrain from introducing bills based on partisan lies simply to patronise its client parties
Rather than further rationing democratic engagement

Labour's Future Fund puts a huge dent in National's plans to sell off NZ assets.
As Chris Bishop & Luxon say - everything is up for privatisation under National in their second term. And their economic plans rely on it. #nzpol #kiwi #suckitnational

Damn, I read Judith's letter! I'll leave the politics to others, but, lord, the Govt spending stuff is REALLY BAD! I'll try and keep this short.
First up, this bare-faced lie. The countries in the pink circle have a similar-sized economy to NZ. Govt spending is a lot higher in all but one . [🧵 1/n]

Impressively out of touch for WBD to oppose the @filmworks4pal.bsky.social boycott when they’re already being boycotted by many creatives for their willingness to fund a new show from the transphobic Wizard Fascist. 🤷🏼♂️ Twice the reason for me to continue my boycott of WBD then, thx!

Yup, very disappointing
Another day & still no focus on Tadhg Hickey & the other 15 Irish flotilla hostages in the media
Clearly standing up against genocide & being kidnapped in International waters by a terrorist state is not news worthy in Ireland
Very sad to see that this is where we are in 2025

If you agree that Israel is committing genocide, you should loudly condemn organizations raising money for Israel. That includes churches and synagogues. Period.

It is completely unconscionable to require job losses for the economy to function (supposedly) and then to blame them for their own unemployment that they DID NOT CHOOSE.

As Luxons govt denies Palestinian statehood at The UN, he posts a selfie from a stadium that holds less than the amount of Palestinians murdered in this genocide to date. This man is disgusting.

New Zealand is complicit in genocide. All three coalition leaders belong in The Hague. We have done nothing to fulfil our legal obligations to prevent and punish genocide and history will remember.
Incompetence, cowardice and cruelty: this government has the trifecta.
