@jncjncjncjnc@nz_media_watch I don't like what we're getting for our money now. Instead, I'd appreciate real investigative unbiased news & journalism, & New Zealand generated content that helps grow our media and & film industries. Using funding to really benefit NZ & NZ'ers.
@JudithCollinsMP Congratulations on your appointment @JudithCollinsMP The article was interesting. I hadn't realised NZ was so invested in space technology -- it's great to see. Enjoy your time in office; I look forward to what you're able to achieve.
@nzpoliticsgroup It's not behaviour I would like to see in any of our leaders, whether it is Tory or some other leader in the community. Not wanting to see the behaviour doesn't mean I can't be empathetic to her, as a person.
@RexWiderstrom@RebeccaJEmm@lachlanp_ There are plenty of people (I believe most politicians are middle-aged to older men) in politics all around the world who display behaviors that we believe are not the right ones for the office they hold, and they are held to a different standard than we're holding Tory.
@61nails @StrayDogNZ@MattyMcLean Completely agree. I am looking forward to journalistic integrity where we're presented with unbiased facts instead of the "analysis"-opinion of journalists, multiple perspectives are given a voice, and where journalists and their editors don't push their own agendas.
@nzpoliticsgroup@Nic_XRP I get it. I'd love it if all our leaders were above reproach. But they're not. I'm saddened to see how some have fallen in such a public way.
@nzpoliticsgroup@Nic_XRP I totally agree that any behaviour, like that reported, must change. It is not acceptable. I was questioning the need to find a video of the reported behaviour to support your point.
@Nic_XRP@nzpoliticsgroup I understand your point. I guess there's respect for a person for what they have achieved, or the type of character a person has, and there is simply the human respect that we're all people who make mistakes and have to live through the consequences.
@nzpoliticsgroup No, unfortunately, this seems to be a time of public-facing "leaders" working through their personal crises in the public eye. In the past, it would be likely they'd be shown the door with little public awareness of happenings.
@nzpoliticsgroup No, she can't. I agree. Yes, we need honorable role models for our youth. But hunting down a video to make your point??? Maybe a tad too far. Unfortunately, she is a public figure and she will be working through her issues in the public eye. Just give her a little space.
Hey @NewshubNZ did you have canned laughter in the first part of the NZ #leadersdebate Sure seemed that way. The same type of unnatural laughter at unnatural times.
@PippaMacKay1 Ironically, Nicola Willis will most likely be your Finance Minister for the next three years. Bitch and moan all you like, there is nothing you can do about it.
@thetvnews Congrats @TovaOBrien - it'll be good to see you back doing what you're good at; just in time for the upcoming elections too. Keep them all honest.
@NZFreeSpeech@SiouxsieW 2/ Yet a well-informed scientific debater or conversationalist should be able to put forward points with well-sited arguments and like a good research paper be analytical drawing on threads of meaningful and relevant relationship and reason.
@NZFreeSpeech Here’s what @SiouxsieW said “Debates are a terrible forum for discussing important issues like vaccines, where persuasion and charm are more likely to sway an audience than facts.” It’s true, a good debater can sway an audience. 1/
