Omg and he’s so smug. How smug is he? He’s so smug that if you juiced the smugness from Peter Costello and Paul Keating you wouldn’t fill Luxon’s little toe. In a video in which he’s justifying a cost of an extra $800 as if it’s a rounding error (in light ...
It’s almost like someone has told don’t worry get out there it’s part of politics. Unlike being a middle manager somewhere in Canada, being remembered as New Zealand’s Liz Truss will stick. Being remembered as someone who just told the worst and most ...
And on top of Ol King Lux’s House and chariot not being befitting, that the news peasants should cease their begging and their criticism of the government, we had the thousand dollar a week distraction. 52k a year. A distraction because here he’s sent ...
I mean who should we respect? The tobacco sales team straight from HQ? Shane Jones the decider? Chris - Ol King Lux- Luxon? The ones insisting benefit cuts are good for the poor? The ones that are insisting that these boot camps will be different? David ...
She’s worked well with Wayne Brown. Part of the skill is finding areas to work together on.
Luxon’s new numbers come from the public seeing him talk like a c- and walk like a c-. Both on his accommodation and how tough his transport was (no former PMs said I’m better than this, thanks). But here’s a kicker: This shows the pure ignorance at the ...
Rest in Peace.
The cheek to say the coalition is scrapping (the rest of the) successful climate change programs (that we didn’t scrap when I became leader). And a bit with a dog! Not enough to get my vote back tbh. But enough to make this a one term government? Who’s the...
Not very human was it? But I think we need to beware. They’ve attacked our eyes and ears. What’s coming? Something they don’t want us to see or hear until TINA is applied. Or perhaps they don’t want us ever to quite see it. The plan is more than tax cuts. ...
Yes, but your handle suggests you live in a foreign language festival offering. Perhaps looking for the title I once bestowed upon a magnificent acquaintance as Minister for Unpopular Culture’. BTW can NZ watch Last Week Tonight on YouTube? Because the ...
Yeah- imagine rolling out some crap that was old in the 90s and expecting the country to live with it!
This is kind of annoying. Part of the blame lies with the intelligent but dumb, part with a party who refused to defend and articulate the positive work they’d done, but rather empahasised that they were cutting costs, scaling back engagement with Maori ...
Mr ‘Anglo-Saxon simple’ Brown is making a strong case that he, and not Ms. Costello is by far and away the worst MP and minister. Though with the third (?) introduction of military style boot camps (exactly what people who’ve experienced head trauma need ...
Has cutting 3 waters and the uncertainty in response to the floods cost us large scale Amazon investment? Concerns about waste water in West Auckland… https://newsroom.co.nz/2024/03/01/amazons-7-5b-nz-data-centre-plan-quietly-put-on-hold/
Jon Oliver this week on putting the cost cutting managerialists- you know this government of invented panic and arbitrary budget reductions- in charge of a company of product led excellence. The doors start coming off aeroplanes. And we’ve been here before...
He’s got another 100 day plan and this isn’t on it. Premier House getting a new guest ball room though…
Was he ever poor or is life just a money grabbing computer game you must win? How does he get so dead keen on whatever he can grab, but simultaneously so tone deaf?
And miracle of miracles…
And him getting back to parliament riding the votes of people who attacked the whatever the journalism fund was.
And there’s also a kind of aluminum smeltery taste in the air…
Innovate or die, said Christopher to the newsrooms. As I did as head of a state-guaranteed monopoly!
We’re a whisker away from Trump’s America. It took decades of Fox News there. Here we’ve got poisonous mushrooms all sprouting and far right billionaires closing one if our four mainstream newsrooms. A mining company can openly run a candidate. Who knows ...
Actually do some window dressing that is out of the same policy play book as bene bashing: ineffective BS that plays as being tough as the media forget what happened the last (two?) times it was introduced.
You must have hit a nerve there Darien! And while Luxon can just simply make shit up about the state of the economy (rebutted by IMF etc), their 3 water’s replacement, if his government is causing inflation, and if his government actions are likely to ...
He’s a complete tosser who knows. He’s probably looking at Shane Jones with envy and thinking if only I was more racist I could be that corrupt. Et voila, this morning’s inspiration on how to help the country from the man we haven’t heard enough from. An ...
But then the RB sees that as a buoyant potentially inflationary economy and jumps on it, forcing more people out of work? And we used to run government departments to employ long term unemployed. Was it Keynes who said we should invent jobs for the ...
For someone who rails against waka jumpers, when you look back at the crew of MPs NZ First has had, there’s been a diverse bunch of occasionally diametrically opposed folk. Winston is fairly much the only constant. From Neil Kirton to the Maori seats of ...
Or stock being re-routed from the US as Biden walks back EV plans?
And Cancer sticks Casey Costello reveals more of her true self and it is a black soul indeed… https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/political/509863/tobacco-tax-document-leaker-no-longer-working-at-ministry-of-health The important thing at the ministry of tobacco and...
This is dumping stock that was brought in under a friendlier regime surely?
Luxon gets quickly onto filing his application to be our worst PM in…well perhaps back to Lange. Or Muldoon. He’s a lying sack of shit without a moral backbone. His government has rushed to give money to people who don’t need it, taking it from those who ...
Cats, with their independent spirit and beguiling purrs, have captured the hearts of humans for millennia. In New Zealand, felines are no exception, boasting the highest national cat ownership rate globally [definition cat nz cat foundation]. An estimated 1.134 million pet cats grace Kiwi households, compared to 683,000 dogs ...
