Protection of New Zealand as our country’s name is literally enshrined in our National Anthem:

Let our love for Thee increase,
May Thy blessings never cease,
Give us plenty, give us peace,
God defend our free land.
From dishonour and from shame,
Guard our country’s honour’d name,
Crown her with eternal fame,
God defend New Zealand.

We have our AOC

I tend to agree with the suggestion 👇

What I don't agree with is public servants being able to overspend OUR MONEY to this extent and get away without being publicly held to account.

We have seen far too much waste and too little accountability - we need laws to stop it.

@rosey_nz @radionz I suspect RNZ promoted the left to the utmost extent to enable their huge deficit to be covered by the hoped-for new Left government. We need a whistle-blower because this is very likely a huge scandal brewing. @chrislynchmedia

[🗣 Free Speech Union ✊ @NZFreeSpeech]

In July, Labour told RNZ it would share its position on hate speech law “in due course”.

Its 101-page manifesto said nothing.

“In due course” turned out to be Friday prayers at Kilbirnie Mosque, the day before the election, where Chris Hipkins promised Labour would implement the Christchurch Royal Commission recommendations the coalition had “abandoned”.

Those include Recommendation 40, which would move hate speech law into the Crimes Act and extend it to religion, covering “threatening, abusive or insulting” communication intended to stir up hatred. A blasphemy law by another name.

By then, more than 1.4 million people had already voted. Labour never put it to them.

If it’s good policy, why wasn’t it in the manifesto?

The fact UN climate conferences are not held on Zoom meetings is all the proof that you need that the “climate crisis” is a government-sponsored scam.

My film was pulled from cinemas and I was cancelled for sitting next to an Aussie veteran. Here’s my official statement.

Turns out that the Starlink software, built for managing the movement of vast amounts of data through space and to the ground, is also very well suited to training super intelligence

I think we're entering a civilizational rupture that nobody can predict. Not me, not the labs, not governments.

I don't know how much people realize how fast we're moving.

Look at what Anthropic's new model did during testing.

It solved two open problems in theoretical physics, both on black holes. One of the calculations was laid out in 2003 and nobody had ever finished it, because it was too laborious.

It formalized the proof of Fermat's Last Theorem in 30 hours, with a thousand agents that organized themselves. The first attempt took 11 days.

It wrote an operating system that boots on a laptop, starting from an empty folder, in 8 days.

It designed three electronic devices, boards, enclosures and software included. All three worked without a single electrical modification.

It found a new method to predict the structure of viral capsids, the shells used to deliver gene therapies.

And on robot control, it more than doubled the previous version's score.

All of that in a single announcement, on a Monday.

I think discoveries are going to stack up so fast that they'll produce an abundance we've never known: energy, health, materials, food. And with it a phase of immense joy, the joy of a civilization realizing that scarcity was never a law of nature.

Except that joy is going to land in a world order that's cracking everywhere, and that was designed by Malthusians. People convinced that resources are finite, that there are too many of us, and that the job of an enlightened elite is to manage scarcity on everyone else's behalf.

To me, Bill Gates is the most famous face of that worldview: a man nobody elected, who has weighed on the planet's health, agriculture and climate policies for twenty years. The degrowth crowd is the militant version. They don't even want to manage scarcity anymore, they want to organize it.

Abundance is the worst possible news for that worldview. If energy becomes nearly free and diseases fall one after another, nobody needs anyone to ration anything for them.

So I don't think they'll fight it. I think they'll try to capture it.

In the name of safety, climate or public health, we'll be told this power is too dangerous to be left in everyone's hands. We already saw the movie during Covid: the permission slips, the passes, the QR code to go get a coffee. Now imagine the same logic with an AI that can see everything, trace everything and decide everything in real time. Orwell never imagined a tool like that.

The technology is winning on its own. The question of the next ten years is who abundance will belong to.

We are living through the greatest civilizational revolution in human history. It's happening right now, and most people are looking the other way.

I’m looking forward to seeing more of Craig Stobo. He was the first New Zealand politician in a very long time — if ever — who I thought: “I’d love to see that guy be PM”.

[Lee Donoghue @LeeDonoghue]

This is what you would have had NZ if National voters had given their party votes to NZF. Can’t believe you only gave them 3 more seats. What a joke. When will NZ understand what’s happening in the world? We are at war with the globalists. This was our chance to stop mass immigration through “LuxTons” globalist agenda. Good luck. 🍀 🙏

@Lisa9Sophia @Ryandally08 @grok What is a subclass 444 Visa? New Zealanders don’t normally require visas for Australia

[Aus Integrity @QBCCIntegrity]

How do we live in a country, run by a government that sells out its citizens, to enrich other countries through asymmetrical “free trade agreements”?

When did we agree to be the subcontinent and Africa’s welfare provider?

Companies getting rich off Aussies, outsourcing our jobs to India

[Senator Sarah Henderson @SenSHenderson]

A very good job?
❌ Dangerously vague definitions which threaten free speech
❌ Sweeping powers moved from Parliament to the Executive
❌ Mass surveillance risk of private email to comply with age assurance
❌ Major red tape burden on low risk small businesses
❌ Threats to religious freedom
❌ Unfettered ministerial discretion on user empowerment tools
❌ Any seriously harmful children’s content can be prohibited
❌ Anonymous sock puppet accounts to track users online
❌ No age assurance privacy restrictions on use of govt/digital ID.

The digital duty of care must be scrapped.
