Yup. Advertising on Sunday etc

OMG the National Party totally screwed up the vote on the Broadcasting Bill. First they didn’t have signed proxies for the conscience vote. Then they didn’t have the 20 members in the house required for a conscience vote - so the vote is a nullity. Politics 101 learn to count !!!

Everyone can access the wrap around community-focused social, health and education services that Te Maata Waka offers, and the results are incredible - even as they fight funding cuts left right and centre. Ka pai to the team at Te Maata Waka, let's continue this important mahi!

This organisation does fantastic work breaking the cycles of crime by offering educational, social and health support that addresses the drivers of criminal offending. There's a common misconception that kaupapa Māori initiatives are for Māori only, but that is simply not true.

Tracey McLellan MP, Reuben Davidson MP for Christchurch East and I visited Te Maata Waka today to understand more about the support services they offer specifically for youth justice. (They do so much other awesome work but I was there in my capacity as Justice spokesperson).

NZ Government refuses to recognise Palestine.
Shameful.

So far the Government has:
❌Halted Pay Equity claims
❌Extended the 90 day trial
❌Implemented real-term minimum wage cuts
❌Repealed Fair Pay Agreements
❌Removed union protections for new workers
❌Cut thousands of public sector jobs
…So I’ve taken the liberty of renaming the Minister’s portfolio.

LOBBYING What is it? Interest groups try to influence lawmaking For example: Unions, teachers and nurses, make it 16, plastic bag ban, mining companies, property developers, tobacco companies, fast-track projects

Lobbying is when interest groups try to influence lawmaking for their benefit.
Sometimes that’s good, and sometimes it’s not.
The key to democratic lobbying is transparency…something the coalition is struggling with.

Nope, I'm opposing projects going ahead without community consultation.

"But what if I'm not wealthy & sorted?"
