To Save Beijing, China Opened the Dams. And Drowned The Rest of China

After devastating floods hit Southern China last week, devastating floods hit Eastern China this week thanks to Typhoon Bavi. But to save Beijing, the CCP diverted flood, drowning other cities.

WE’RE TAKING OUR COUNTRY BACK
And the radicals are panicking.
Because everyday Kiwis are no longer afraid of being called racist, colonisers, extremists, or “not Māori enough” simply for wanting safe communities, lower power prices, strong borders, New Zealand ownership, and a country that puts its own people first.
For too long, political elites, media commentators and radicals on the left have talked down to hardworking New Zealanders while our country has become weaker, poorer and more divided.
Our grandparents and great-grandparents built this country.
Everyday Kiwis keep it running.
That is a fact.
We are done being told to stay quiet while our families struggle and our country moves in the wrong direction.
Everyday Kiwis are finding their voices again.
And together, we are taking our country back.
Me rongo,
Billy Brown

Gutted I can’t make the Auckland protest for Modi’s visit due to family circumstances. 💔

But I’m 100% standing with everyone there. No to Modi and a hard NO to the India FTA!

We must protect our sovereignty, our workers, our culture and our values 💪 🇳🇿

#NoToIndiaFTA #BanModi

🇨🇳突如として「バタン諸島は我が国の領土だ」と呆れた主張を始めた中共

フィリピン国防相はそう喝破した

「彼らの狙いは太平洋全体、いや世界全体を支配することだ」

我々からすれば、根拠ゼロの馬鹿げた「でたらめ」に過ぎない。

「我々は断固として反撃しなければならない。彼らはまず、鏡で自分たちの姿を見るべきだ」

こんな政権、さっさと潰れてしまえ！

MIC DROP: Iranian ambassador to the United Nations, Amir Saeid Iravani: “I have one word only: I advise to the representative of the United States to be polite. It will be better for yourself and the country you represent.”

U.S. Ambassador to the UN, Mike Waltz: “Frankly, I’m not going to dignify this with another response, especially, as this representative sits here, in this body, representing a regime that has killed tens of thousands of its own people and imprisoned many more simply for wanting freedom from your tyranny.”

NUKED!

🚨BREAKING: UK GOVERNMENT TO TAKE CONTROL OF YOUTUBE ALGORITHM

This is pure authoritarianism

Keir Starmer's/Andy Burnham's Government is set to control the YouTube algorithm by LAW stipulating that they must push "APPROVED CONTENT" to UK Citizens

And independent voices who criticise the government will be pushed to the back of the queue making it harder for people to find

YouTube has acknowledged this is happening

This must be stopped

[New Zealand First @nzfirst]

New Zealand First will restore the basic democratic principle that the
right to decide New Zealand’s future belongs to New Zealand citizens.
Voting in general elections should be reserved for those who have made
the full legal and civic commitment to this country.
Permanent residence gives people the right to live, work, study, and
build a life in New Zealand. Citizenship is different.
Citizenship is the formal bond of allegiance, belonging, responsibility,
and democratic authority.
New Zealand First believes that distinction should matter again.

There's a demonstration today in London telling King Charles that he's a sellout to Christians all over the world.

Rightly so after his revised definition of what the monarchy actually is.

We are a Christian country.

Michael Laws to Stand for NZ First

New Zealand First is announcing today that Michael Laws will stand for New Zealand First in the Waitaki Electorate at the general election.

Laws has spent more than four decades serving New Zealand through Parliament, local government, broadcasting and public advocacy. Born in Wairoa and raised in Whanganui, he graduated with First Class Honours in History from the University of Otago before completing a Master of Arts in Creative Writing at Victoria University. He was awarded a University Grants Committee Postgraduate Scholarship and was also a New Zealand Universities debating champion.

Laws entered Parliament in 1990, serving as a Member of Parliament for National and then New Zealand First until 1996. Following Parliament, he served as New Zealand First’s campaign director for the country’s first MMP general election in 1996.

He then established a successful career in broadcasting, publishing and journalism, becoming one of New Zealand’s best-known talkback hosts and the author of three bestselling books, including Gladiator: The Norm Hewitt Story. His work has spanned television, radio and print, earning a reputation as an independent and outspoken commentator.

Laws was elected Mayor of Whanganui in 2004 and re-elected in 2007, while also serving three terms on the district health board. As mayor, he championed innovative local initiatives, including pioneering anti-gang insignia bylaws that were later adopted nationally.

Since relocating to Central Otago in 2013, Laws has remained active in public service. He has represented the Dunstan constituency on the Otago Regional Council since 2016 and was comfortably returned as the leading vote-getter in the 2025 local body elections. He also helped establish Vision Otago, which secured significant representation on the council and now plays a leading role in its governance.

Laws has lived in the Waitaki electorate for more than a decade. His family has longstanding ties to the district: his father was Rector of Waitaki Boys’ High School, his youngest son attends St Kevin’s College in Oamaru, and Laws worked at Oamaru’s Brydone Hotel while studying at the University of Otago. He and his wife Cheryl live in Cromwell.

Laws will be an asset to the New Zealand First team bringing a wealth of experience, skills, and leadership to parliament.
