@SeanPlunket Get used to it, unless you start ticking the ‘correct’ boxes on ethnicity

@FCDOGovUK Don’t be ridiculous. Just stay out of it & how about you concentrate on the problem of little British girls being raped by middle eastern rape gangs & the knife crime your govt imported.

@Suitandtie9999 @kaiviti_cam Hipkins himself looks bewildered 😂

@the_salty_one_ Can you add to list get rid of unelected list MPs being able to vote.

YOU'RE WEEKLY REMINDER OF WHERE YOUR MONEY WENT UNDER THE LAST GOV. ( a few of thousands of examples)

1. Wallaby eradication — $2.7 million to kill 18 wallabies. $153,000 per wallaby and 26,000 labour hours. Cheaper to fly them home business class.

2. Virtual job expos — $835,000. 126 people attended. $6,626 per Zoom attendee.

3. Global health recruitment campaign — $514,000. Result: 3 interviews. $171,000 per interview.

4. Let's Get Wellington Moving — $35m on consultants. Just $250k on actual construction. You read that right.

5. Auckland Light Rail — $229 million. Six years. Not one metre of track. Burning $1.2m/week on consultants at peak.

6. Three Waters — ~$1.2 billion torched on a policy nobody wanted, scrapped before delivering a single pipe. Included $14,500 to write a job description for a CEO who never existed.

7. iReX ferries — $500m+ sunk. Ballooned from $551m to a projected $3 billion+ before cancellation. (NZ First also had fingerprints on the original deal — worth being upfront about.)

8. RAT tests — $531 million sitting in warehouses. Storage at $100,000/day. Approved over a year late.

9. Mongrel Mob meth rehab — $2.75 million. $239k catering. $157k marae hire. $100k hiring a van.

10. Shorter shower campaign — $2.8 million. Printed in 7 languages. To tell you to take shorter showers.

11. Auckland Harbour cycle/walking bridge — $51 million on planning before scrapped. No bridge.

12. Lake Onslow pumped hydro — ~$100 million on feasibility studies. Not a shovel in the ground.

13. Workforce Development Councils — $65 million/year for bodies critics said delivered little tangible value. Disestablished.

14. RNZ/TVNZ merger — $20 million. Abandoned by Labour themselves.

15. Ethnic women in politics research — $842,000. A university grant could've done it for a fraction.

16. "Ulu Cavu Wig Tour" — $73,000 in taxpayer funding for the Arts Minister's husband's tour.

17. Abandoned China immigration office — ~$3 million in rent on an office closed for over a year.

18. Promoting Australian citizenship to Kiwis already in Australia — $10,000. Funding the brain drain with our money.

…and we could keep going.

We should never FORGET Labour. Just a small fraction of their wasteful ways.

More bonkers from Massey University & radical activist Mohan Dutta who can find whiteness in every problem known to mankind.

Think twice before enrolling there.

Apparently biology and male & female was violently imposed by white Christians.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

“The binary the bill wants to write into law is not a universal human inheritance. It is a colonial artefact. The two-sex, two-gender scheme that European empires carried across the world was a product of a specific historical moment in Western thought, tied to whiteness, to Christian theology, to the consolidation of property and patriarchal lineage. It was then violently imposed on societies that already had their own, often more capacious frameworks for understanding gender and sexual difference.”

Why Chris Hipkins is unfit to be Prime Minister

Forget the spin. Look at the record.

Hipkins ran the COVID response. He ran the spending. He built Te Pūkenga. Three of the biggest calls of the last decade. All three went wrong.

Start with COVID.

The Royal Commission has now reported. It found the exit from elimination was mishandled. It found decision making drifted away from expert advice. It found Auckland was locked down longer than it needed to be.

Longer than it needed to be. Sit with that. Businesses shut. Families kept apart. Kids kept out of school. And the official inquiry says it went on too long.

Hipkins says he made mistakes "with hindsight." Hindsight. People were saying it at the time. He just was not listening then. He still will not apologise to Auckland now.

Now the money.

Labour spent tens of billions during the pandemic. Much of it untargeted. Much of it with no real link to the virus at all. That spending helped fuel the inflation that pushed up your mortgage, your rent, your groceries. You are still paying for his decisions today. Every week.

Then Te Pūkenga.

He took 16 polytechnics and merged them into one. The merger went further than officials recommended. It then collapsed into deficits and dysfunction. A flagship reform that became a flagship failure.

So that is the record. COVID exit mishandled. Spending out of control. His signature reform in ruins.

And here is the part that should bother every New Zealander.

When the Royal Commission offered him the chance to front the public and answer for all of it, he refused. The man who stood at the podium every day at 1pm telling the country to trust him would not stand up once and be questioned. He hid behind lawyers instead.

This is the same man whose Cabinet paper carried advice about heart risks from a second vaccine dose in teenagers. He now says he does not recall it.

Does not recall it.

You cannot run the country on "with hindsight" and "I do not recall."

A Prime Minister owns the call. Owns the cost. Owns the consequence. Hipkins owns none of it. He admits mistakes only when the evidence forces him to, apologises for nothing, and ducks the room the moment real accountability arrives.

That is not bad luck. That is a pattern. And that pattern is the reason he is unfit to be Prime Minister.

Exactly

When Clint Smith refers to ‘means testing’ superannuation, I’d like some parameters please

You could have two people that have earned the same over their careers, but one blew it on holidays, cars, gambling and booze, and one saved $300,000 in cash

Do they both get super at 65?

[Bluebird @Bluebird262626]

Hipkins at pains to argue fees free was designed not to burden the next generation.

Meanwhile his government got the country into debt levels that will cripple the economy for our children & their children for years to come.

@RupertLowe10 Starmer is another version of Jacinda Arden. Absolute poison for any country to have these socialist leaders, they wreak countries.

@WomensNN You are 100% correct.
There isn’t a woman in the world who would have to take me to court to enter a woman-only space I created.
It takes a man for this case to exist.

@British_4Ever @RupertLowe10 Yes

@De234Genius @RupertLowe10 It’s a war on women. Stand up our men we need you to protect us from evil of islam.

@elonmusk I don’t need to read the book, but i will.
I wonder at the rise of women throughout society & the law, and the link to suicidal empathy.
Woman are naturally emphatic & kind, & it has its place.
But it’s systematically destroying the fabric & discipline of our society.

@NMowbray23 This is a big Fkn subject, went to a primary school play recently and was gob smacked as to the indoctrination the wee kids were being taught through play. Its out the gate. And throughout our education system. Home school your kids if you care for the future.

[The Farmers daughter @Bluebyyou66]

@matt_horncastle Matthew you are a brave man and admire your courage. The left are relentless in the lengths they will go too. Go well hold the line. We need strong men to step up.
