The govt was advised that two shots came with increased risk of myocarditis for young people who were at much lower risk of serious covid infection anyway. Officials advised the govt not to mandate 2 vaccines for 12-17 year olds. But they did & they made this youth campaign.

Takuta Ferris posted this. Keen to know what other New Zealanders think. We don’t have a constitutional document (we have a collection of docs said to make up an unwritten constitution). If you are non-Māori do you have different constitutional rights from Takuta?

The Finance Minister distributes the Budget to all the party leaders. Well, the ones that show up to the Budget Debate. Look who is missing.

This is so telling of how the NZ media view the general public. They think we are morons who can’t be trusted to form our own political opinions. They detest democracy because the “experts” should run our lives. Thank goodness for Winston Peters

What we define “woman” as underpins everything else. We can’t deal with inequality, violence, representation etc if we cannot define the people we are advocating for.

Another election, another round of “Harry Tam is a good guy” from the left. Beware the fact checkers, guys. They need fact checking too.

Filming yourself complaining about petrol prices… while filling up a vintage Holden Kingswood 🤔 It’s like moaning about grocery prices while pushing a trolley full of caviar! A car designed in the 1970s… Carburettor. Built like a fridge. And drinks fuel like it’s still 50 cents a litre and Muldoon’s on the telly. I asked AI to do the maths: Kingswood: ~12–22+ L/100km Corolla: ~4–7 L/100km Hilux (ute): ~7–11 L/100km That’s 2 to 4 times the fuel burn. So yeap, if you choose to drive a rolling museum exhibit, filling it up is going to hurt. Normal Kiwis don’t have the luxury of turning inefficiency into a lifestyle. But here we’ve got Labour MP Dan “Koru Club” Rosewarne staging a social media moment in a gas-guzzling classic and presenting it as evidence of hardship. Mate, skipping one Kingswood fill could probably keep a few Corollas running for a week.

I do no consent to my rights, protections, and opportunities being taken away because a bunch of the most privileged women on the planet have used their positions of influence to sell women out. Our sport is not yours to give away.

Today Casey Costello used general debate to call out Benjamin Doyle for his “insulting” final speech. It’s worth s watch.

“Love and affirmation” I was there. Right up the front where all the violence happened. If they would’ve succeeded in getting Kellie-Jay on the ground they wouldn’t have stopped. The mob was rabid. Green Party NZ needs to take responsibility for the violence they justified.
