    Message from Hayden Munro today. Unsure of the detail:

    "A new poll has been released this afternoon and it has Labour rising and the centre right falling."

    • Louis 1.1

      Probably the Curia Poll

      National 35.9% [+0.9]

      Labour 27.9% [+1.4]

      Green 10.6% [-2.1]

      ACT 9.1% [-5.2]

      NZ First 6.9% [+3]

      Māori 3.7% [+0.8]

      Preferred Prime Minister

      Luxon 29% [+4]

      Hipkins 27% [+2]

    A surreal animated short (6:25) about work and late-stage capitalism.

    The Employment – by Patricio Plaza & Santiago Grasso

    A man prepares and goes to work in a bizarre world, where the meaning of human workforce is taken to another level.

    TDB has it (phone can't paste, but it's there now). I thought I saw it on an MSM site too, but lost it again.

    National 35.9% ↑0.9

    Labour 27.9% ↑1.4

    ACT 9.1% ↓5.2

    Green 10.6% ↓2.1

    NZ First 6.9% ↑3.0

    Māori 3.7% ↑0.8

    Other 5.8% ↑1.1

    • weka 3.1

      Did you type all that out?

      • Roy Cartland 3.1.1

        Actually no. It's a quirk of the Huawei handset. It copies some things as a quote and you can paste that, but pasting from a copy doesn't work (like links etc) in this text field.

    • James Thrace 3.2

      Careful Roy

      dont forget you need at least 3 verified sources and footnote your comments to put anything referencing things that can be found using a 2 second google search or has been repeated elsewhere by multiple news sources!

    The party’s policies included introducing a 1% transaction tax, wanting to limit the powers of government, remove race-based policies, stopping fluoridation of public water supplies, and end New Zealand’s participation in international bodies such as the United Nations and the World Health Organisation.

    What a 1% transaction tax would do.

    So, basically, a party that wants to:

    -implement a ludicrous tax plan.

    -reduce the power of Government while still being part of “The System” and enjoying any benefits conferred by that.

    -appeal to people’s redneckery and irrational resentment of Māori.

    -implement anti scientific, harmful policies.

    -appeal to the thread of irrational, contrarian, conspiratorial perversity running through some parts of society.

    Good luck yes
