The controversial 'secondary kill' plan to eliminate feral cats Some Stewart Islanders think they can wipe out all predators from their piece of paradise, allowing endangered native species to thrive. A ‘secondary kill’ 1080 poison strategy to kill feral cats is a...

Far right misinfo networks don't just spread hate and bigotry. In Rakiura, they're trying to drive a species of dotterel to extinction.

That the government is banning this medication only for trans youth – and not for the other cisgender populations who use it – is a blatant show of their bigotry.

Awesome day at the STAND UP FOR TRANS KIDS rally. We utterly condemn the government’s ban on puberty blockers (GnRH analogues) for trans youth. Puberty blockers are life-saving medicine, supported by medical experts, and are already a compromise for many trans youth.

This loser is now being de-banked, but the NZ government is still fine with letting him recruit in Aotearoa.

Submission Guide – Fast-track bill Amendments The Government’s proposed amendments to the Fast-Track Act take an already dangerous and anti-democratic law and push it even further. These changes would hand more power to Ministers and big corporat...

All this to make it EVEN EASIER for their cronies to drill, mine and burn the planet for profit. Fuck this shit.
We love this land Aotearoa and our beautiful planet. Submit against the bill by MONDAY at 2pm.
A guide here : 350.org.nz/fast-track-r...

This regime is ratfucking our democracy.

This regime is ratfucking our democracy. They are giving just 11 days for submissions on the Fast-track Approvals Amendment Bill. The changes would give ministerial powers to dictate outcomes while removing the right to submit on or challenge decisions in court.

Rā Whakamana 2025 is anti-fascism in action! Unity and solidarity with Iwi Māori and Unions working for a better Aotearoa with aroha, kotahitanga and dignity for ALL!

The charter school clown car tootles on in ever reducing circles By John O’Neill

This is a good breakdown from the Aotearoa Educators Collective on where this proposed school fits in the charter school system.

aecnz.substack.com/p/the-charte...

The term ‘Judeo-Christian’ has been misused for political ends – a new ‘Abrahamic’ identity offers an alternative The idea that western values are ‘Judeo-Christian’ has been co-opted by the radical right to advance their anti-Islamic agenda.

There's a good explainer here from @tobygreene.bsky.social

theconversation.com/the-term-jud...

It'd be great if our media approached this subject with a little more healthy scepticism. @annacwhyte.bsky.social www.thepost.co.nz/politics/360...

Which is why we are wondering what right-wing Christian Zionist Jonathan Ayling is attempting to do by starting a "secular" charter school with "Judeo-Christian values" in Pōneke.

There's a reason why religion scholars prefer to use "Abrahamic" over "Judeo-Christian". The latter term is mainly used by Islamophobes trying to paint Islam as a threat to "Western civilisation".

pro-worker, pro-union, anti-fascist. We support striking workers.

The battle for workers’ rights is a fundamentally anti-fascist kaupapa. Unionists worldwide have recognised connections between their own emancipatory struggles and those of others targeted by the extreme right. A core mission of anti-fascism is to see labour rights respected and enjoyed by all.

Pro Worker, pro union, anti fascist. We support striking workers

The march is cancelled but the strike is still on!
Please show your solidarity with striking workers tomorrow by posting a selfie with hashtags #StandTogetherForHealth #SaveOurServices #MarangaAke #MarangaMai

Join in! Stand Up! Thursday 23 October. Wellington: Meet @ Queens Wharf @12:20pm. March to Parliament. 1pm: Rally at Parliament

Our right to strike has been limited by neo liberal governments - but the 23rd October will be a powerful reminder of our collective power. Join us at Queens Wharf on 23 October at 12:20 to march to Parliament. Rally at Parliament at 1pm.

We oppose the additional billions being spent on defence.

And we support a union movement that stands against genocide.

Unions have a proud history of improving conditions for workers and standing with oppressed peoples around the world.

BUT Aotearoa Supports Pay and conditions that ensure our public health and education systems are able to care for us ALL.

We support all those going on strike - the teachers, support staff, health workers, nurses, doctors, dentists, social workers, physiotherapists and mental health staffers.

Aotearoa sees through Judith Collins’ Dirty Politics.
Her open letter reveals the tactics of this Government
- Smear public servants with lies and misinformation
- Claim there is not enough money
- Undermine ethical stances as “WOKE”

If you're over the ditch, please make it to one of the counter-rallies against the far right this Sunday.

3. Overriding Te Tiriti: The Amendment Bill takes an unprecedented approach by including provisions that expressly prevail over the purpose of the Act and the Tiriti o Waitangi provisions

Māori rights matter.
Justice is not negotiable.
A response will come.
Tangata Tiriti stand with Tangata Whenua.

1. Retrospective Theft: The Bill applies retrospectively from 25 July 2024

2. Impossible Standards: The amendments require proof of "exclusive use and occupation from 1840 to the present day without substantial interruption."

The NZ government prepares a major attack on Māori rights today.

The Marine and Coastal Area (Takutai Moana) (Customary Marine Title) Amendment Bill had its third reading today.

This law is UNJUST for three reasons:

Support Seriously Injured Auckland Musicians Jade and Hon We need your help to support two well known Auckland musicians Jade and Hon, who are seriously injured after an incident over the weekend.

Anti-fa just means anti-fascist. If you don't like fascists you're anti-fa too!

Onlookers as clergy pray for sanctions against Israel outside Finance Minister Nicola Willis's Johnsonville office. A man with a Palestine flag hods a sign: "Luxon, Peters, where's your SPINE? Sanction Israel NOW."

Anglican and Catholic clergy pray for sanctions against Israel outside Finance Minister Nicola Willis's Johnsonville office. One holds a sign, "Sanctions speak louder than words"

Anglican and Catholic clergy pray for sanctions against Israel outside Finance Minister Nicola Willis's Johnsonville office. Signs say "Sanction Israel Now", "Love Demands Action" and "Sanctions Speak Louder Than Words"

We went down to support the Anglican and Catholic clergy who have chained themselves to Nicola Willis' office door to call for sanctions against Israel.

Awesome work from the White Rose Society. They've uncovered the neo-Nazis who attacked Indigenous Camp Sovereignty, and were leading double lives as dentists, surveyors and financial planners.

We've now had multiple MPs (notably, people from marganlised groups) resign after campaigns of hate and harassment coordinated by known far-right influencers. This can't be good for our democracy

Picture of the following text: “Kaupapa: We march under Te Kahu o te Raukura, the cloak of peace laid by Taranaki Whanui over the whenua. This protest is jointly organised by Pōneke Anti-Fascist Coalition, International Socialist Organisation Aotearoa, People Against Prisons Aotearoa, Peace Action Wellington and Te Tai Tētēkura. Gather with us at Midland Park at 1pm for speeches, before marching over to the USA Embassy. If you may have trouble walking this distance, we will have transport options available please contact us in advance if you need this. Bring your protest signs and your best chanting voice!”

Picture of the following text: “Why protest? The director of the FBI has stated that opening an office in Aotearoa will “counter China’s influence in the Pacific”. Law enforcement agencies in the USA are repressing the American people, cracking down on protest and resistance at the command of Trump’s authoritarian government. By welcoming the USA military and the FBI into Aotearoa, the New Zealand government is siding with the USA in an imperialist rivalry that threatens the sovereignty and safety of peoples in the Pacific and beyond.”

Organised with our pals; Te Tai Tētēkura, @isoaotearoa.bsky.social , @peacewellington.bsky.social , and @papa.org.nz
