Greens overtake Labour in sensational poll The Greens have polled higher than Labour in the latest poll by YouGov, which puts them only two points off Reform UK and five ahead of the governing party.

Wow.

The Green Party is now the most popular party in all age categories under 50 in the UK.

If clueless Luxon signs up to the Trump war I will be on the parliament grounds the next day.

The first thing this coalition government should have done was scale up the renewable energy sector more than what the previous government had started. If they’d done that singular thing, we’d all be more healthy & SECURE, also with the wealth to raise future generations, in confidence not fear. 🤷‍♀️

I feel like the most proudly relevant ANZAC Day in the last 80 years, will be April 25th 2026. We need to remember the sacrifices so many innocent kiwis made in order for the next generations (us) to never have to even contemplate the pure evil of patriarchal authoritarianism or fascism. #nzpol 💔🕊️

Finding any current NZ National Party MP with even an ounce of integrity would be a bit of stretch at this point, sadly. 🤦‍♀️ #nzpol #OneTermGovernment

In other news, they’re also planning on hiking fuel prices to pay for more rOaDs, which on top of the Middle East inflationary war, means more unaffordable costs being lumped onto struggling kiwi families in the midst of a worsening cost of living crisis. Genius level incompetence. 🤦‍♀️

If you thought petrol prices would rise because of the illegal war in the Middle East, you’re correct…but wait there’s more, the NZ National Party are going to punch you in throat & rob you blind by hiking fuel prices by 12c per litre next year, increasing year on year, because rOaDs? 🤪

Jacinda Ardern's move to Australia renews spotlight on New Zealand's brain drain problem New Zealand has long struggled to keep its best and brightest with about 180 Kiwis leaving a day.

Yeah, we were mentioned in the BBC.
Boo, we are losing 180 cool kiwis a day to Australia.

This NZ Government must really suck for this many to leave

Racism, bigotry & misogyny is always the most expensive & destructive policy. We should be making it a sackable offence & a disqualifying behaviour in local & central government… that’s if we want to protect our democracy from authoritarianism that is. 🤷‍♀️ #nzpol

Government ‘kicked the tyres’ on solar subsidies but went with ‘minor’ tweaks instead It is one of the cheapest ways to cut power bills - yet documents reveal the government shelved a subsidy.

New Zealand has more sunshine than Germany.
But only 1 in 35 homes here has rooftop solar.
Australia? 1 in 3.

Why? I tried to find out - despite some strange secrecy

Including executing hundreds of innocent school girls & a hospital full of the sick, injured or elderly?

War Criminals.

Look. What I say to you is this.

I support any action daddy trump takes, even if it borks global trade, runs up inflation, drives up petrol prices and kicks international tourism in the dick.

Any action is worth it in my eyes. Hell, I won't even speak out against schools and hospitals being hit

PETITION: CONDEMN TRUMP'S ILLEGAL WAR Sign the petition to pressure Luxon to stand up against this reckless war

The NZ government’s response to the illegal attack on Iran by Trump and Netanyahu is a disgrace.

New Zealand should stand for peace, not war.

Sign the Greenpeace petition calling on the Luxon Govt to defend international law and condemn the illegal attack on Iran by the United States and Israel👇
