@gtiso @David_Cormack @StrayDogNZ Do I like that our landlord got an interest free loan to make their property more livable? No. Did I appreciate the warmer house - hell yes.

[Jamie Penney @jamiepenney]

@gtiso @David_Cormack @StrayDogNZ It's one of those "we're going to have to pay people to make their shit rentals not-shit" pols. I don't like that we have to, but I also know the problem isn't going to solve itself. The EECA grants were a good ex - our cold af 1920s Wellington rental got done up because of it

@geofftnz I'm just glad I'm not still working at Xero. The 12.5 => 15% change still gives me nightmares.

[Jamie Penney @jamiepenney]

@vebatevic @rnz_news Was RNZ always like this? I feel like I've only just started to notice it. Maybe I haven't been paying attention...

Hadn’t predicted wet bulb temperature specifically as a culture war angle but it’s going to be difficult to explain what it is to a lot of people before they’re dead from hyperthermia because of stuff like this.

[Nick Jack Pappas @pappiness]

It's easy to get mad at Ted Sarandos or David Zaslav or Bob Iger, but they get paid so much because their only job is to make rich people richer.

The WGA and SAG-AFTRA aren't fighting against rich CEOs. They're fighting against an entire system incentivized to exploit workers.

With thousands of households struggling, now is precisely the time to change the tax system.

A fair tax on the wealthiest 0.7% people in NZ would raise enough to lift every family out of poverty.

If that's what people want, their only option this year is the Green Party.

"many people are doing terribly under the status quo and that's why I am committing to keep it in place"

Assuming neither of us ends up unemployed (I have insanely precarious work lmao) we're squarely what is considered middle class and it's clear that National Party policy isn't aimed at people like us. Party for millionaires and billionaires lol 💀

[Kyle Church @KyleDChurch]

@NZGreens like, this isn't justifiable on almost any set of news KPIs except if they consider themselves propagandistic gatekeepers for right-wing political interests

How it started: How it is going:

These are exactly the circumstances I'm talking about when I say that the bourgeoisie are the biggest murderers in the country, no competition. Every winter people are killed by their landlords.

[Andrei Simionescu 🍌 @smnscu]

Ho-ly shit. This is the best Game Changer episode ever put out by far, absolutely brilliant

[Dudley Benson @DudleyBenson]

My last duty in this whole despicable saga is to make public what the super-predator James Wallace has done, and how he has been enabled by the complicity of the NZ arts world. I'm now working through the best way to do this. Thanks.
