Once again HNZ isn't publishing the data. If Simeon wants praise we need to see more transparency from HNZ, especially around use of taxpayer money.

Health NZ sure like to focus on the pay rise and not the others things nurses are protesting for. Like safe staffing levels and staff safety #nzpol

I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees.

No refugee underfunded a school.

No refugee closed a hospital.

No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled.

We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!

In amongst the sheer tsunami of filth the current govt is pushing out, the Pae Ora amendment bill is set to do long term damage to our already compromised health system. This post isn’t mine but summarizes it well: www.reddit.com/r/nzpolitics...

This bill needs more media attention! #nzpol

The Minister of Finance and the Treasury released its Half Year Economic and Fiscal Update today, and with it – its ‘plan’ for the Budget in 2025 in the Budget Policy Statement. The indicators show very clearly that it’s not working for anyone. A long thread (apologies) #nzpol
