@HopeRising19 Has anyone actually seen this OIA response? Can they share a link, because Google can't show me and it is not on the portal

@madmanchap More wasteful spending by a Govt going through a process - and just making a decision based on magic (or some other kind of sleight of hand)

@VotingbearNZ @ArchHeretek @damianchristie People should know by now that "evidence based polices" was just a campaign promise, and didn't make it into the Coalition Agreement

[PeteO @_Pete0_]

@vebatevic @BasRap2008 @damianchristie New way of selecting which "backoffice bureaucrats " to lay off - if you don't have a seat when the clock chimes, you lose your job. The Minister of Finance can reduce staff even more, tell us it isn't her fault people are lazy & remind us of how fun she can be

@yp780201 @ponekeben Some people apparently think it is woke if someone doesn't buy Ford Rangers for their children

@jenparaone @NewsroomNZ I don't understand why you are asking for Palmers expertise in virology - i don'tstalk the guy but i doubt think he has any. He seems to stay in his path and focus on constitutional law, which seems more relevant in a conversation about constitutional law

@jenparaone @NewsroomNZ Are you saying that despite a degree in teaching, you are incapable of educating yourself? Sounds like things have certainly gone downhill in education. You must be pleased our Govt has banned cellphones in schools to get us back on track

[PeteO @_Pete0_]

@jenparaone @NewsroomNZ I guess it is understandable that an experienced academic has a more nuanced view than armchair commentators

@StrayDogNZ @TovaOBrien @radionz So unfair to call Luxon out of touch. Not all of his houses have swimming pools.

@jenparaone @NewsroomNZ Palmer was so concerned with the impact of the emergency public health legislation that he went on record - with his approval of it

@napoleonbusch2 @NewsroomNZ Seymour was never elected to drive these changes either. It was a concession Luxon had to make to get his knighthood

@Scotty04483671 @GaryPayinda I wonder how much Dr Lester Levy gets paid?

@Samanth50500721 @GaryPayinda Ambulance staff can write prescriptions now? This is excellent news. Do they deliver as well?

@terrasea @GaryPayinda Feels like:
- the heated tobacco monopoly needs lower excise tax
- local councils are bad at dealing with money, so we should allow them to borrow more for water infrastructure
- boot camps have gone really badly, but what is the harm in doing it again
- we need more guns

@jameslast831 @Nic18111 @GaryPayinda I heard that Ambulance Staff kept their donations to the National and Act Parties under the declaration threshold just so noone would know. Not like those stupid people in the property industry who donated so much that they appeared on the donations register

[PeteO @_Pete0_]

@StrayDogNZ @devonwebbnz @TovaOBrien @radionz Luxon is entitled to his entitlements. He confirmed it himself. And it's one of the few things he hasn't changed his mind on

[PeteO @_Pete0_]

@gen_vii @nickofnz Seems a bit too similar to the forestry industry.

But hey, if we can take profit today, and our children pay the costs in future, that should be OK right?

[PeteO @_Pete0_]

@CathKakariki @essigna @chrisluxonmp Thank goodness our PM didn't mention borrowing (increased under the new Govt), the record numbers of kiwis leaving, or the strong way our Govt is ignoring climate change

[PeteO @_Pete0_]

@paintedpontoon @NewstalkZB True. It's not news to most of us that there are racists in the National Party, or that the Party misleads people with their public persona

[PeteO @_Pete0_]

@black13830 I'm confused

It is wrong to post to the work social media account, but it's ok to be racist in your spare time, and to mislead the public on social media?
