Terrifyingly magnificent writing. John is a consumate gentleman, a wordsmith, and he truly encapsulates the confusion, despair, and disgust most of us feel at this Government.
Even my mother-in-law, a lifetime Nat voter, is appalled.
"New Zealand First would do almost anything for a vote now. They’re as principled as a cigarette": John Campbell

This is fkn great writing. It's a long read, but don't skimp. Treat it as homework but interesting.

Goodbye 2023 - but is it out with the old and in with the even older?

Why are mainstream media outlets (TV1News & TheSpinoff for a start) platforming Sean Plunket/The Platform? This lends apparent endorsement to an 'alternative' 'news' forum, that's at best, highly dubious, and surrenders to Winston Peter's cynical refusal to speak to credible journos

Um, the prevailing narrative of “yay, the long-awaited kiwi summer is arriving” might also want to consider that the forecast map is bright red.
Last year was the 3rd-hottest on record.
We’re expected to get 40°C days.
The highest last year was 35.6°C.
We should be talking about navigating this.

It is not anti-Israeli to condemn Benjamin Netanyahu. It is, in fact, pro-democracy and pro-peace to do so.

'One term governments are possible.  But you have to be prepared and well resourced. Now is the time to start getting organised to making this Government a one term National government.  And for Labour to work out its future'

Don’t get angry, get organised

Thinking about all the essential workers that will keep NZ safe, clean, fed, and moving over the long weekend who will get shafted if FPAs get ditched.

These last few days without a government have been the most relaxing I've had in years and I hope Winston holds off on a decision until at least 2025. We all deserve a break from things happening

Watch the narrative about Māori that will come out in AoNZ if we have to protest a Te Tiriti referendum. The excuses needed to disenfranchise indigenous people are being formulated globally. I desperately hope I'm wrong, but I think it's going to be a heck of a time.

Christchurch! Please email your local councillor to let them know how much our small community libraries are valued. They are not, as our mayor describes them, “just a building with some books in it.” The council is considering closing small libraries to cut costs. Please share.

The sooner Papatūānuku gets around to making humans extinct the better.
We all need to get in the bin. How am I just learning about this? Why isn't this stuff covered on the news?
Anyone else had to turn to YouTube this week to learn about Palestine and Israel?
Now this!

Something I suspect NZ is about to learn the hard way (again): politicians don't run the country. They make laws and high-level decisions, but they don't actually make the country function on a day to day basis. The people who do that are the people the new government is gagging to put out of a job.

So Reti owns shares in the Whangarei private hospital, so directly benefiting from Whangarei public being a mess. It's fine. It's all fine. Ffs

People often wonder why I only work intensively with 27 women. Why our orgs financial resources go to them when most orgs prefer “wide reach”.

I asked the question: what has being part of the aunties whānau made possible for you.

One of them articulates it beautifully.

This is why.
