#BHN Tuesday PM has said several times re cancelling smoke free 2025, that it would be weird to allow 36 year olds to smoke and not 35 year olds
One can only assume that he will now be in favour of lowering the voting age.
Weird that 18 year olds can vote but not 17 #nzpol
Judith Love Cohen was an American aerospace engineer who helped create the Abort-Guidance System that rescued the Apollo 13 astronauts.
When she went into labor, she went to work.
She took a printout of a problem she was working on to the hospital. She called her boss and said she finished the problem and gave birth to Jack Black
A humble plea for ceasefire and peace.
As a child trapped in the shadows of war, I intimately knew its smell, sounds and sights.
I empathize deeply with those now caught in the middle of conflict, feeling their pain as if it were my own.
War brings only devastation, horror, and destruction. Nothing else.
In this critical moment, let us rise above the divisions and embrace the path of peace.
The truest display of courage lies in choosing peace.
I call on world leaders to unite and lead the world towards peace.
Choose peace.
Great interview. @NanaiaMahuta says her mother and father would probably say: “Ka pai, you did really well. You did the best that you could with what you were given, and we’re proud of you.”
I wish more of us could hold that sentiment in our hearts.

There are more renters than landlords - but that only counts if you actually vote. Party vote Labour for healthier homes, better rental standards and tenants rights.
The wealthiest landlords in the country will each rake in $1.3 million on average from National’s tax breaks.
Meanwhile beneficiaries and those on low wages lose out, and public services will be at risk of cuts. How is this fair?
It’s easy to say you’ll be “tough on crime.” It’s much harder to tackle the actual issues that lead to crime. Pushing thousands more kids into poverty, as National’s policies will do, is a recipe for disaster #nzpol#nzpolitics
Never forget that this is how Christopher Luxon views people on benefits & disability allowances: bottom-feeders.
And yet Luxon plans to take from beneficiaries to provide tax cuts for wealthy landlords.
So who's the real bottom-feeder here?
Ryan Bridge's frustration with Luxon refusing to answer his question is palpable here.
Luxon won't answer the question of whether someone on a disability allowance will be worse off under National because he knows the answer won't win him voters.
