“As richer and older Australians enjoy the lion’s share of generous tax concessions for landlords, the number of households on public housing waitlists has climbed to about 190,000, up from 169,000 in 2024, and 141,000 in 2018.”
Australia spends more on tax breaks for landlords than social housing, homelessness and rent assistance combined
Exclusive: Acoss report shows property investors received $12.3bn in tax concessions in 2025, while the share of social housing dropped to a record low

NZ has fallen into a 'crisis and response' pattern on climate disaster, experts say. Billions have been spent on storm recovery since 2023, while key climate adaptation funding and planning tools have been cut.

Not saying we must restore lost industries and go back to the golden age before neoliberalism, more that NZ needs to seriously ask wtf the point of the economy is if it’s not materially delivering for people or public spending adding value. Quarrying for export and rent seeking is impoverishing us.

Let’s not forget this #nzpol
This thread that you started @mehr.nz hits the nail on the head. Not sure if you know about Nicky Hager's book 'Dirty Politics', but it is a good read. Collins is a dastardly feature in it. Hager won every defamation suit brought against what he wrote in that book.

It's only KFC if it comes outside a crisis zone, otherwise it's just sparkling tokenism #NZPol
Leaders should absolutely show up, but disaster response isn’t a photo op or should be trivialised. Watching our Prime Minister hand out boxes of KFC to impacted communities was peak cringe IMO. We need serious, systems-level action and that 6b resilience fund like yesterday.

NO! No. No no no no no.

Is THIS what you voted for?
6% of the votes does NOT give NZF permission, let alone a mandate, to destroy our precious whenua for the USA.
