Will never trust another politician or government, anti-unkiwi Prime Minister. Dislike PC woke bullshit. Love freedom and less government interference in life.
Not much point in being on here now. Accused of inauthentic behavior so now what ever I post isn’t seen. So much for engaging. Bye 👋 nice knowing you all!
@asukagrypr@RyanHendersonNZ If you want kiwis home, there needs to be a student loan amnesty because that’s one of the main reasons, they don’t want to or feel it’s impossible for them to return. For many it’s a noose around their necks
@RyanHendersonNZ I’ve submitted an e-petition for this and I will submit another one in relation to citizens or naturalized citizens after 7 years can stand at any election!

ACT says the decision to remove amendments related to homeschooling in the Education and Training Amendment Bill is a major victory for the thousands of home-schooling parents who spoke out against bureaucratic overreach.
Following strong feedback from the home-schooling community, ACT Education spokesperson Laura McClure wrote to Education Minister Erica Stanford yesterday warning that Clauses 5F and 51A of the amendment paper risked treating good parents with suspicion and imposing unreasonable compliance burdens. Today, the Minister agreed to recommit the Bill.
"Draconian new restrictions on homeschooling were a mistake, rushed into law at the last minute," says ACT Leader David Seymour.
"We have fixed it, and Parliament will take those clauses out of the law today. This is a victory for democracy, showing that people can be heard by politicians and change can result. It is also a victory for educational freedom, the simple idea that you own your life and can choose your pathway, rather than being a character and a play written by others."
“I’ve spent the last week listening to the deep concerns of the home-schooling community, and I took those concerns directly to the Beehive. Today, common sense has prevailed,” says Ms McClure.
“Wellington bureaucrats tried to use a handful of isolated cases to justify sweeping new powers over thousands of loving, committed parents.
“New section 640A was a free rein for a future government to regulate home-schooling out of existence and force children back into the state system, with very few safeguards in primary legislation. It also raised serious concerns by expanding the Ministry’s powers to demand information from parents.
“In my letter to the Minister, I made it clear that we cannot write laws that treat everyday families with suspicion in an attempt to catch a small number of bad actors. Parents who make enormous sacrifices to educate their children deserve respect, not open-ended powers for future regulation.
“I want to thank the Minister for listening to ACT and to the home-schooling community, and for making the right call to pull this legislation back for further work.
“ACT believes in education freedom and trusting parents. We will be watching the redrafting of this Bill closely to ensure there are strong safeguards protecting the rights of home-schooling families.”
@AntonioTweets2 This is why @Canada 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 wants to lock-him-up...
He’s exposing government corruption ...so they called him "insane" and arrested him...
@EarlFargofbu2a@CPetemateymate That’s what liberal judges will do, keep sentencing under 10 years. Maybe we need 3 judge panels on violent crime and corruption!
@hotahotasa45082@PeteSoudar You mean the ones that did exactly what they were accusing foreign residents of doing, not paying health insurance and pensions. 🤦 hypocritical don’t you think?
@gringoshaman420@matt_horncastle That was the governments bill you dickwhacker. Did he lock down the country and mandate that? No, he didn’t.
You lefties can’t do logic can you!
