Milwaukeean by birth, Kiwi by choice. I used to chef. Now I hang out with my wife, play punk rock guitar, umpire New Zealand baseball, and play with my deaf dog.

This dude stopped in to where I work last week. He wasn’t thrilled to hear I’d be voting Greens because I’m looking forward to them pulling Labour to the left when they’re in coalition together next year. And not the point, but I’m 5-foot-6. I didn’t realise he’s so short.

Everyone please write to labour:

Chris Hipkins
Ayesha Verrall
Shanan Halbert
Duncan Webb (as this is a human rights issue)

And ask them to make a strong statement saying they will instantly repeal the regulation. Apply as much pressure as possible to the Government.

Yeah, very cool. Pearl Jam used to do this as well; not sure if they still do.
