New Zealand media just ignoring the fact that 200,000 people can’t get a coffee or a restaurant meal, or play rugby or football because they’re unvaccinated-discrimination is not okay in any circumstances #nzpol
Friday thoughts.....
Why have the NZ Police not visited/made a phone call or asked that Rawiri Waititi and Debbie Ngarewa-Packer go to the police station to "discuss" their social media public racist rants which they have been doing on a regular basis for years?
Chris Hipkins has said that Labour is willing to means test superannuation that would affect hundreds of thousands of kiwi seniors - just like they did in the 1980s.
‘Means testing’ is another way of saying the government will be able to refuse to give you your retirement super income if they decide you don’t deserve it.
As the saying goes, when the going gets tough they always go after the young and the old first.
Our Kiwi Super is not a benefit, it is a long standing Kiwi entitlement. Kiwis who are 65 or above have worked 30,40, sometimes 50 years paying taxes and building this country.
We have an obligation as a government to look after our seniors in their retirement and protect their super.
We demanded in our coalition agreement that super won’t be touched - this will never change while NZFirst has a say.
NZFirst is the only party that will never allow the hard-fought Kiwi super to be hacked away from our seniors for any short term gain - the rest want to attack it and take it away.
🇬🇧🇺🇸 King Charles to President Trump:
"You recently commented…if it were not for the United States, European countries would be speaking German."
"If it wasn't for us, you'd be speaking French."
This was King Charles III finest hour.
His address to Congress was witty, clever, cultured and touched the most important issues facing both our nations.
Countless standing ovations and rounds of applause.
The value of our monarchy is truly priceless.
God Save the King 🇬🇧
Brilliant, bold and challenging address by King Charles to the U.S. Congress which was (very unusually!) united in regular standing ovations. The best speech of his life, right when his country needed him to step up and repair the Special Relationship. Bravo, Your Majesty! 🇬🇧 🇺🇸
