The #Uber loss in the Supreme Court “highlights a grey area in the law”, says Brooke Van Velden.
It’s been through 3 courts. The judges were unanimous. There’s nothing grey about it. The law is black & white. WORKERS HAVE RIGHTS! That’s the real “problem” this anti-worker govt wants to “fix” #nzpol

Postcard campaigns are quite impactful. A couple hundred emails don’t take up much inbox space and are easy to ignore, but a stack of postcards are impressive.

In almost any other NZ government in *history* Willis would be long gone by now. The only things that are different are a PM who enables it and a media that helps cover it up and move it on

The attack against pay equity for women is disgusting enough.
But then seeing Govt Ministers crowing about how this is good for women?! Insulting gaslighting patronising 'splaining. We know we have to use this to galvanise the many!

Counterpoint - Seymour hijacked a public health issue that his party’s policies will make manifestly worse in order to promote himself and blunt accusations of heartlessness, but you’ve really got to hand it to him that he gets political messaging. Apparently.

And an open door to an Australian mining company to turn the Taranaki seabed into an open-cast mine.
Shane Jones and this Govt seem to see Aotearoa as little more than a resource colony.
It's such a lack of vision and such a failure of leadership.
