Nothing more “bread and butter” than protecting the climate necessary to grow wheat.

I support you Felix! No one should struggle to pay for their hearing aid batteries.

It’s sad and bizarre some people are spending their energy suppressing simple symbols of the visibility and pride of our - my - rainbow community. You can’t paint over our existence. Love always wins.

[Chlöe Swarbrick @_chloeswarbrick]

I am in touch with relevant authorities to have our Karangahape Rd rainbow crossing fixed immediately.

While National struggles to piece together its trickle-down budget to serve vested interests and gut public services, we must be clear with NZers that these are choices made to uphold a deeply unfair economic model. Different choices can be made.

.@NZGreens welcome Labour to the desperately long overdue conversation on progressive tax reform. We’ve got mountains of reports, including those commissioned but the former Govt, about how desperately unfair our tax system is. What we need is the political willpower to fix it.

Moe mai rā Rod Oram, intellectual giant of progressive civil society; kind, patient and generous human to all. The climate movement has lost a champion far too soon. The Green Party sends our deep condolences and love to his whānau, friends and community at this tragic time.

Did you know that @_chloeswarbrick’s Rental Warrant of Fitness bill would fix this, and ensure all renters have healthy warm homes? Now you do.

[Chlöe Swarbrick @_chloeswarbrick]

To address the nonsense obfuscatory arguments, I also sought to table in @NZParliament correspondence (even just from my side) with the many, many Nats spokespeople I tried to engage on the issue throughout the campaign for my Bill. They also weren’t keen on that.

[Chlöe Swarbrick @_chloeswarbrick]

Wild pretzel logic from @DrShaneRetiMP on @NZQandA re Nat’s position on my Alcohol Harm Minimisation Bill.
Targeted sports? I was v happy to get rid of all marketing/sponsorship, on the record & behind scenes. They weren’t.
No good faith, evidential nor logical argument against.

[Rebecca Matthews @RebeccaJEmm]

It’s not public transport vs bike lanes vs pedestrianisation vs dense housing. With what the climate is telling us, it’s public transport + bike lanes +pedestrianisation +dense housing, as quick as we can.

'We did it' - $15m government pledge to help restore Auckland's St James Theatre.

⁦@_chloeswarbrick⁩, kudos to you for spearheading this effort. Well done. The pity is it took so long for the government to get on board. https://t.co/wsndNrz8nR

Chlöe proving again how valuable local Green MPs are. She listened to her community and fought for this. Love this so much for our city @_chloeswarbrick 💚

[Chlöe Swarbrick @_chloeswarbrick]

Violence like this has no place in our city nor our country. We utterly reject it and are dedicated to ongoing work on evidence-based interventions to prevent it ever happening again, which I fully expect will be openly and thoroughly discussed and debated in due course.

[Chlöe Swarbrick @_chloeswarbrick]

Deep condolences to whānau and friends of those who tragically lost their lives and were injured this morning. I want to acknowledge the incredible work of our front line Police and St Johns Ambulance workers who saved lives and with utmost skill contained the situation.

[Chlöe Swarbrick @_chloeswarbrick]

There will be a time after grieving and reckoning with this senseless violence to address policies and politics.

[Chlöe Swarbrick @_chloeswarbrick]

Police have contained the situation in downtown Auckland City Centre. This is their statement:
