For context, these were due to be published in March 2025. The NZ govt prevented their publication because they intended to ban puberty blockers and the guidelines show they are safe, effective, and standard care internationally. Today they were released in an OIA putting them in the public domain.

Great news, but a shame it's at tourist prices. Hopefully over time the price reduces to something that makes more economical than driving or taking a bus

We used to spend time - real, substantive time - on "what does the data mean", "what are we trying to emphasise", "how is it going to be interpreted". But the slop is just... "dear sirmedem have gud ibfrograohic". It's *worse* than any of the bullshit we've ever had.

It's so cool how this government is doing so many Trumpian things- voter suppression, climate denial, interfering in education against expert advice, destroying healthcare, rolling back environmental protections- but we're still largely treating them as normal and being like 'But how's the economy?'

At my NZSL class this evening the teacher said to us, "don't do this sign by mistake, it's rude!" without telling us the meaning of the sign.
So I'm grateful to Luxon for doing vagina fingers today.

Boards Chair here - before our BOT passed a motion affirming our commitment to Te Tiriti, I received emails from parents and teachers urging the board on.
The union never said a word.
Amazing that reaffirming a commitment to Te Tiriti is viewed as "anti-govt" (his words)
