The tide is coming in! Do we change to inters now or full wets?

Good luck @LandoNorris from SandoNorris in New Zealand

One time it definitely would have been better not to have a spanner in the works.

Honestly, they should have just left that old interislander ferry where it was and turned it into a B&B or something.

Really interested to hear @cjsbishop tell reporters that he'd been talking with environment sector ahead of the #fastrack proposed legislation. As CE of NZ's largest & longest serving ENGO, we weren't consulted. We got a letter & 12 days to respond & a cancelled meeting tho 🙅‍♀️

Fun fact: that $55,000 accommodation benefit Luxon claimed is tax free, so he was receiving, in the hand, what a worker earning $68,000/yr receives after tax.

Sorry, I meant fucked. Fucked fact.

$52k is approximately what a councillor with no chair role gets paid per annum at Whangārei District Council. Remuneration is as misaligned between central and local government as funding is.

[Cr. Scott McKenzie @CrScottMcKenzie]

Ah isn’t this ‘race based’?

[Janette Stratton 😷 @JanetteStratto2]

The new govt is a day old and so far Seymour's smugly promising thousands of job losses, Willis is willing to sacrifice lives to fund tax cuts for the wealthy, Luxon's promoting anti Māori racism in the public service, and Winston's spouting anti media conspiracies.
Bloody hell.

@IsraelInstNZ @NZHumanRights @samuffindellmp Wait a minute we’re supposed to be ok with Zionists (religious extremists) while they excuse the mass slaughter of Palestinian children because apparently there weren’t that many Palestinians on that land 3000 years ago or some shit?

Whoever runs this account is a slimy POS.

[Catherine Delahunty @greencatherine]

National saying they will “ gently “ destroy the Māori Health Authority sickens me, they have no alternative and they don’t care about the discriminatory Pākehā health system,damaging Māori health, it’s shameful.

[Lucy Lawless @RealLucyLawless]

Ooooh, the social profit in freeing up access to cigarettes!This is how we reward our wealthy in NZ now. Mining! Guns! Total deregulation! In fact, why not just scrap taxes for the rich altogether? #NZGovt

“It’s a further insult to our tangata whenua by the newly formed coalition Government on top of the loss of Te Aka Whai Ora – the Māori Health Authority.”
Repeal of smoke-free laws – a massive set back for health

Last time I was on Twitter it was still called Twitter. Now it's called something else, but also still Twitter. Someone said there was a sense of community on here, but I don't feel it. This message brought to you by me just thinking I should keep my account alive, I guess.

I have hope for the future.

The tinkering you hear from the two major parties does not need to be our future.

NZ can be a place where everyone has enough to get by & warm home.

Where we take climate action to make our kids proud.

It is all possible. Party vote Green.
