For as long as Sweet Noah Animal Rescue has been running, they've always managed to cover vet bills thanks to the incredible generosity of our community. But since losing our old FB page (and with it over 3,000 followers), they're struggling to keep up. If you can koha to help them!

This win belongs to Tāmaki, to every volunteer, & to all who believe in Te Tiriti and the power of our people

#nzpol Congrats to Oriini Kaipara ❤️ and ❤️ Peeni Henare. You both did hard mahi for days on end. Thank you for showing us all how steadfast Māori are in politics and Aotearoa despite this awful govt. This Pākehā is really pleased to see more wahine toa in our parliament

"a councillor complained about the “mayor’s alleged conduct” at a Local Government NZ conference."

To avoid any outrageous rumors which usually occurs, this conduct was me delegating a proxy vote to Mayor Campbell Barry. THAT IS ALL. #nzpol

#NZPol This would be a great time for parties on the left to start making announcements about how they will be rolling back changes to restore Te Tiriti to legislation if they're elected. 90% is a powerful number.
Just because the Treaty Principles Bill is dead in the water at the moment, don't think this #Nact Coalition of 🤡🤡🤡is giving up on their anti-Māori agenda to expunge Te Tiriti in all forms of legislation. #nzpol
Govt moves to replace or repeal Treaty principles clauses from laws
The coalition's ambitious plans to repeal or replace all references to the Treaty principles in legislation are now underway, according to new documents.
