I love a good public policy but I'm also partial to vegetables and cute animals.

@grandmundi @MorganGodfery @JoshVanVeen Are you ruling out Winston Peters? A majority is needed to form a government. If they need him for 1 seat, that's the "same amount" of leverage as it would be for 6.

[Craig Neilson @exquire]

@grandmundi @MorganGodfery @JoshVanVeen Is it? If they need him, they need him.

@DylanReeve At least if NZ First is involved we get to do all this again in a few weeks.

@chazharris @StrayDogNZ Journalists we are READY for you to ask Luxon which Taylor Swift tells listeners to calm down

@BenUffindell Hello I'm running for Parliament and have rented this billboard only to put someone else's face and message on it. I'll leave my own name and party off. I am so good at my job.

@AotearoaSam Surely the election is the trigger, right? I'm uninstalling the app as soon as we're done with this topic.

For the true Treasury cognoscenti the Financial Statements of the Government for 2023 were provided today. It provides the real and audited state of the Crowns accounts. They are largely as expected, but a few things may be of interest. A short thread...

@bentorkington They walk among us and there's not really a nice way to talk about the problem

[Craig Neilson @exquire]

@Tim_Batt They might tell their parents they voted that away just cos it's not worth the argument! But what you tick in the voting booth is up to you.

@SimeonBrownMP @drayeshaverrall There's no community notes on this now sooo...

[Craig Neilson @exquire]

@actuallosergal Yeah man, Julie Ann Genter is the real deal and would slay for Rongotai.

[Craig Neilson @exquire]

@actuallosergal Is it the bright, poppy colourful artwork on the cans!? Me too man, threw me across the room.

Report on one of the roads that had speed limits reduced showed 34 crashes avoided in a year and journey times increase by 3.6 minutes. Over a year this equated to $93m in benefits for about 1.3m in costs.

@essigna Yeah why didn't they send the much-younger Chris Bishop??

[Craig Neilson @exquire]

@JessTerraformE @LI_politico @jukic_d Yes just put two and two together! Nice you see you again, keep up the good work.

[Craig Neilson @exquire]

@JessTerraformE @LI_politico @jukic_d Well *that* sure earned you a follow!

@JohnSurico Gonna be so cool when there are like 40 million 90 year olds driving around 🫠

[Craig Neilson @exquire]

@actuallosergal It's a dumb take - on these numbers votes could shift between Labour and Green and one of them would win. The only threat here is National - he should be going after those votes.

[Craig Neilson @exquire]

@GoodBallSport @NewshubNationNZ And one of them is the back.

@queencynethryth @ThisIsCorey Wow this would not fly in my policy analysis paper at uni. No wonder that can't find an economist to put their name to it.
