Remember when the Panama Papers came out, revealed that all rich people in the world are part of enormous criminal network to dodge taxes and hoard stolen wealth in offshore accounts, and the journalist who reported was murdered by a car bomb, and no one was held accountable, and literally nothing happened.
Remember that there are 3 million files of documented evidence about powerful men and women who raped, cannibalized, trafficked, filmed, terrorized, tortured, hunted, and murdered 13, 14, 15 year children, and no one was held accountable, and literally nothing happened.
Remember that the United States literally kidnapped a sitting president of a foreign country and his wife and they’ve just been sitting in jail for the past 6 months, and no one was held accountable, and literally nothing happened.
Remember that there are two genocides—one in Gaza and the other in Lebanon—and that there are arrest warrants for war crimes and crimes against humanity, and no one was held accountable, and literally nothing happened.
Remember that the US military bombed a school in Iran, killed 168 schoolgirls, and no one was held accountable, and literally nothing happened.
Remember that there are hundreds of terrorist settlers terrorizing the West Bank and burning people's homes while families and children are asleep inside, and no one was held accountable, and literally nothing happened.
Remember that the US is starving and killing babies in Cuba, blocking 7,000 containers of medicine, food, and power from reaching Cuba, and no one was held accountable, and literally nothing happened.
This is what will happen—and continue to happen—if we do not unite to enforce international law.
Zero debt.

The Greeks coined the phrase for citizens that had the right to vote, but chose not to: “idiots”.
Don’t be an idiot. Make sure you’re registered and go vote this November!
You REDUCE crime by eliminating POVERTY. The reason so called nice neighborhoods have lower crime rates is because people’s basic needs are being met. It is not because of police, alarm systems, or neighborhood associations. Poverty creates crime.
America has gotten to that last part of Monopoly where the game is effectively over and we’re all just watching the Elites suck up all the money, nobody else is allowed to really keep playing the game & we’re all getting more pissed by the minute
Flip the damn board over already
@spider_hoof@VuocoloRiz That happened to me as well - removed from the Maori roll too! After telling my colleagues to check - over 50% had also been removed! This coc govt. Is corrupt - using trumps play book of bs 😡
I’ll vote for a government that stops treating us like we are on an episode of survivor, with high drama, intrigue, manipulation, and straight up propaganda. We aren’t dumb, your job is make this place good, not to mind fuck and gas light us with boogey man tropes.
@KeeganLangeveld@nzfirst Fighting for women? When you SUPPORTED the nullifying of Pay Equity, sanctions for beneficiaries, health/budget cuts for carers, and failure to hire our graduate nursing students?

Gerard Otto Anzac Day holiday post "Lest we Forget"
But lets not forget Nicola Willis
wrecking and vandalism of the NZ economy, driving up the cost of living and ransacking the Treasury with her contractionay stagflation policies of unfunded tax cut bribe choice in combo with unwise austerity while lining her own pockets with Luxon, her big party donors, farmers, landlords, big tobacco and anyone wanting to fasttrack their RMA consent projects some of it litigated as illegal or bad for the environment through our highest courts
Help your fellow New Zealanders in this time of need.
Whatever you may think of Nicola Willis' ability to loudly debate a few talking points and invent wild hypothetical stories about the state of the imaginary books with her finger of blame, conjuring up hypotheticals about had Labour still been in power, it has to be admitted by everyone that those Supermarkets are still charging like wounded bulls in a cost of living crisis made worse by her focus on cost cutting.
Cost cutting has not put food on the table.
Now the costs of living is only set to get worse thanks to Trump and Netanyahu along with Willis' effective protection of her former Board Director colleagues at the NZ Initiative.
Lay out what you get on the kitchen bench for $200 these days and it does not add up to much.
Shoppers spit on the ground when they see it. Is that all I get for may hard earned money after tax and GST and ACC is taken?
Many are paying over 20% more if not double for the same food goods now that they were only a few years ago.
Food banks are overwhelmed with the new surge in demand under Willis after a spike in food price inflation that declined under Labour in 2023 but Willis managed to inflate again in 2024 and 2025.
Cutting funds across the Public Service, moving around the deck chairs and weakening the back room support, claiming she has made theoretical savings, performing studies on the supermarket duopoly, seeking more competition, none of these actions by Willis has meant you walk out of a supermarket with a trolley full of groceries that cost relatively the same as they once did compared to your income.
Things have not improved despite all that loud screeching talk from the chalk swallowed throat of the Finance Minister.
Putting food on the table is harder with Willis as Finance Minister.
Cuts and moving the deck chairs around and dancing around introducing competition has been a FAIL.
During the pandemic the rate of food inflation was higher than it is today but there was very good reason for that, which had to do with the Ukraine War, petrol prices, the price of fertiliser, supply chain issues all of which saw food prices spike and then fall back to more normal levels.
Labour put in place a Groceries Commissioner but more had to be done and National have not done it.
At the same time Supermarkets are swimming in money bins with record profits of over $1 Million per day. But Willis is useless from a shopper's experience. She has not helped make one cent of savings for us at the check out counter.
We can't eat her ghost groceries so we skip meals.
Nicola's other close colleagues at the NZ Initiative are the Gentailers who have also ratcheted up the power bills for the same people looking at the horrendous price of basic essential food.
Mates around the Board Room Table, the Gentailers are creaming the big profits these days after semi privatisation took away affordability for this essential public utility.
Dead slow to invest in renewables over the past decade and still playing catch up, the Gentailers profits are obscene with Forsyth Barr recently estimating a $1.86 billion combined operating profit as people pay through the nose and it's windfall profit time.
Forsyth Barr is also around the Board Room Table at the NZ Initiative as the tight network of aligned interest suck the meagre wealth out of the public for essentials and former colleague. Nicola Willis controls the
