After submission to Ministry of Justice on Arms Act rewrite attempting to loosen gun laws in New Zealand, re-focussed on the proposed expansion of citizen's arrest powers. It's terrifying, really. Warned former colleagues at The Disinfo Project to expect offline, physical aggression against them.

Luxon's approach to #climatechange means NZ will have to pay BILLIONS of dollars to buy carbon credits from other countries to meet our Paris climate pledge.
That's because they are failing to reduce emissions here.
It's going to cost us all dearly.

There’s nothing organised or strategic about the staffing cuts within Health NZ. They’re just slashing staff, hoping to figure out what work it’s possible to keep doing later.

Even NZ media outlets who claim & preach impartiality for their hosts & reporters STILL regularly platform the country's worst, most toxic bad political actors to act as columnists, commentators & panelists.
This isn't about balance, it's about knowingly inciting rage & reaction.

"Let’s leave aside the overt partisanship of some commentators".
Why?
Isn't that the exact cause of the problem in our media (from left or right perspectives)?
