Live on RNZ Kieran McAnulty just challenged Chris Bishop to a trailer backing contest and Bishop ceded because he admits he can not

If you’re trying to get a submission in and you just can’t get through, please, try again. If after many attempts and much patience that doesn’t work, email the committee staff and ask (politely) for assistance. The address to use is fe@parliament.govt.nz 2/2

I've got to say, the guy who accidentally became the Director of the FBI does 100% look like the guy who accidentally becomes the Director of the FBI in a mid-2000s comedy about a guy who accidentally becomes the Director of the FBI

We should all be entitled to an additional public holiday this year to make up for the unpaid time we had to take writing submissions on stupid Act Party bills

The economy shrank 1% this quarter and New Zealand has tumbled into the depths of a recession of Nicola Willis’ making. Her cuts and austerity has fed the recessionary fire, and today’s GDP figures show this, recording the weakest 6-month period since 1991, excluding COVID-19.

*Jewish protesters.
Some of the largest protests we've seen since this all broke out are by by *Jews* saying: Not in our name. Never again for ANYONE.

Hey, if you'd normally do Secret Santa, but well, won't be doing it this year for obvious reasons, why not consider popping the funds you would have spent on that towards making Christmas merrier for kids who might not otherwise get a pressie from Santa. ❤️
(Let's see how much over $3200 we can go!)

Can we get to $3200 before the end of today? That would mean we have helped 160 kiwi kids get a $20 Secret Santa gift this Christmas. To kids who may not have seen any present from Santa. Soo close givealittle.co.nz/fundraiser/b... @foxylustygrover.bsky.social

That whole smug 'oh Chris, oh Chris, so negative' just shows what a bully Luxon is. The gaslighting in plain sight is astounding.

Christopher Luxon does NOT get to quote Taylor Swift when he's talking about cutting benefits! Given how well she pays her staff, she would definitely not approve!

The Greens have more votes than ACT and NZ First combined, but the press still focus on old Pissflaps Peters and Scabbers Seymour. It's grotesque.

Enough with Mum and Dad investors, I want to hear about Mum and Dad protestors. The ones who marched against the Vietnam War and the Springbok tour, who campaigned for a nuclear free Pacific, women's lib, honouring Te Tiriti, homosexual law reform. These are the values that make Aotearoa

I haven't used the bird app regularly for ages. The negativity and noise were exhausting in my already overwhelmed mental state. This place, however, is an absolute joy and I'm popping in several times a day just because it makes me smile :)
