CompassNZ is despicable. Taking our tax dollars to provide disgusting mouldy, contaminated food to our children. Read their website, according to CompassNZ they’re “Nourishing Aotearoa’s Future: The School Lunch Collective in Action” The board should be named and shamed for this fiasco. 1/2 #nzpol

'.. it seems that local and regional government are being set up as a target to distract New Zealanders from their dissatisfaction with the current regime.' - Anne Salmond
Anne Salmond: We're reforming the wrong part of government
Coalition Govt ministers insist their reform of regional councils is 'not a power grab' - but all the evidence suggests the opposite, to democracy's detriment

If any other political party pulled what Nats have on Kiwisaver this week and the comments on the regulatory standards bill, they would have been raked over the coals given their history. No one would have made it out alive from the news cycle.

NZ has had two major reforms of subnational government so far: 1876 and 1989
As the guy who literally wrote a book on the demise of that first system, *and* as someone who generally supports more unitary authorities, my considered opinion is that this proposal is completely insane

No more regional councils - major shake-up of local government announced
The government says it is not a power grab, but about "making local government fit for purpose".

Treasury is saying "woe is us" again and suggesting asset sales. So here's a reminder from the OECD that our Govt actually has a net worth ($191bn per Treasury) which makes us an outlier globally.

This is much better advice than what's peopsed in the article.
Savings advice. I have some.
1. Vote in a Govt that DOESN’T gut employment, lower wages & kick pay equity to touch.
2. Vote in a Govt committed to affordable housing for all.
3. Vote in a Govt that is committed to affordable childcare, PT and free healthcare - including dentistry. 1/2 #nzpol

Loved this Jon Stewart and Jacinda Ardern conversation. Too many leaders weaponise fear. True leadership treats power as responsibility—to act with empathy, optimism & courage, and to improve lives. A good reminder right now.

We till the soil & mend the gate
While suits debate another state
They hmmm & haw, they hedge & stall
But justice isn't no protocol
They say “It’s tricky, not our fray”
While more children die every day
“We’re neutral, mate,” they like to claim
That’s code for “we won’t take the blame”
