Probably in skill, but he would never had said this about Palestine, or reflexively opposed things like wealth tax and social insurance. I am so ready for the next progressive chapter!

It's like... OK, so yes it fucking sucks that they are so effective at propaganda, but given how utterly predictable it is that Zionists will react in the way they always do to the phrase, public figures would be better off not creating a story about themselves by using it

I have chanted it at plenty of protests and will continue to do so, and I don't think people for Palestinian liberation should be bullied out of using a slogan, but honestly, Zionists absolutely love the opportunity to misrepresent us and Green MPs using it really works for them

My work is politics-adjacent and I am finally seeing real opportunities to do meaningful stuff under this new government, instead of just wallowing in the gloom. It's refreshing!

Interesting! Not surprising that there is a long history not quite grasping the little (and this time inconsequential) details of the Westminster system.

Limiting their damage by keeping their even worse partners out is a rational position. You don't have to agree with it but I reckon it's worth a look given the magnitude of problems we face.

We don't know what they would or wouldn't be able to get. As a long time Green supporter, often voter, and always donor, I would absolutely prefer they explored any options to keep Seymour and Peters out of government

I don't think it would be self-destruction for the Greens membership to have the option of keeping NZ First and Act out of government with some sort of deal. One of the best things about the Greens movement is they have democratic membership participation in this stuff. They should see options.
