🌴 Aotearoa/New Zealand will be "visited" by the tropics later this week, but it won't be as pleasant as it sounds!
💧 It will come in the form of a slow-moving, heavy rain/wind band for Northland & parts of Auckland+Coromandel on Thursday night-Friday 🌬️
Big waves too! 🌊
@NZNationalParty That's untrue
@nzlabour ruled out those taxes and theyve shown us that they honour their word
We really can't say the same for @NZNationalParty
You lot gave enormous tax cuts to the wealthy with a few crumbs to average workers
Then you increased their costs with these new taxes
To be clear- no political party is in a position to rule out post-election policies (like a fairer tax system).
Voters will decide what kind of Aotearoa they want to see in October.
If you want bold action to end poverty, you know what to do.

The Greens are saying ‘enough’ to the politics of indifference.
Everything we need to make life better for people in Aotearoa already exists.
What’s missing is the political willpower to use it.
🚨 Without immediate, deep and sustained greenhouse gas emission reduction, global warming will exceed 1.5°C by 2035.
Key message from the 2023 UN
sustainable development goals report.
The report is yet another loud call for action. No one can do it alone, but together we can!
@GregPresland Hmm, bit of a stretch, if Labour was serious it would guarantee a real return on the investment rather than the pittance our current generators pay.
There was an absolutely electric atmosphere today for Green Party co-leader James Shaw’s AGM speech!
The time for half-measures and excuses is over. The time for bold action is now.

#BREAKING The Green Party 2023 Manifesto has just been released. Our vision for the next government.
Our manifesto speaks to who we are, what we stand for, and the values we will take with us into every decision we will make over the next three years.

@NZNationalParty Top tax rates:
England 45%
Scotland 49%
Australia 45%
Spain 45%
France 48% +
Portugal 48%
Norway 55.8%
China 45%
India 42.744%
South Africa 45%
Germany 45%
Netherlands 49.5%
Sweden 52.3%
Please tell me again why New Zealand is at 39% and should be 33%?
With their brilliant tax policy & now an intelligent problem-solving, incentivising, housing policy, the Greens have come of age as a genuine political force on the left. Labour should be very nervous. Time for them to stop taking the voters for granted.
