@coughlthom @MHReddell Volunteered time is not a donation. See Electoral Act s207(2). The term "Party donation ... excludes (i) the labour of any person that is provided to a party free of charge by that person"

@SamSachdevaNZ As an investment in journalistic research, I suggest you make with the $10 and see what we ask you for next. With several of these research investments, perhaps you'll crack our algorithm. Scoop!

I totes sacrificed five clones of me to save me. I’m not proud, but I’d do it again. Down with clones of me.

My Jake “The Snake” Roberts action figure (not toy) grapples my DFA, poured in honour of ⁦@beerlytweeting⁩ who everyone farewelled so warmly today.

@nzdavidh @beerlytweeting Thanks @nzdavidh - big loss for a lot of folk in the debating community, and Neil's other circles as well. Nice photo of you with him there, too.

[Rob Salmond @rsalmond]

So sad to learn we lost @beerlytweeting today. Neil was a debating hero then partner of mine. And every time I butcher a song at karaoke, it’s Neil’s fault cos he got me hooked. He was sharper than most tacks, but thoughtful and kind to his core. Moe mai rā.

@JGreenbrookHeld @beerlytweeting I had facial hair AND top-of-my-head hair, yo! It was The Great Overlap.
