If we were to protest at Parliament to object to Seymour messing with the Treaty of Waitangi, what would our song be?

Was going to say that if I was a witch I'd turn Luxon into an ugly green frog, but taking a second look, I think someone's beat me to it.
He is ugly in mind body and soul. How did we get to this?

Reti is unfit to lead a ministry so important to our countries future. It would be morally wrong and a political liability but I suspect Luxon is so naive that he can’t see it. 🤬
It sickens me to think that this kūpapa could be Minister of Health.
Reti lied about suicide stats during Covid, does not support a woman's right to choose or informed consent, supports the privatisation of health, opposes the MHA and we still have leftish men who think he is a suitable health minister.

Christopher Luxon’s plan to reopen NZ to offshore oil exploration is STUPID.
We we can SEE the climate crisis taking an increasingly heavy toll.
We KNOW it’s being caused by burning oil, gas and coal.
Scientists say we can’t afford to burn even known reserves.
It’s stupid and reckless.

Something I suspect NZ is about to learn the hard way (again): politicians don't run the country. They make laws and high-level decisions, but they don't actually make the country function on a day to day basis. The people who do that are the people the new government is gagging to put out of a job.
