Do you remember when John Key spent 26 million dollars trying to change the New Zealand flag.

Then we have Winnie saying the $222M breakage fee was "reasonable" when breaking the iREX Ferry contract.

And it costs $3M PA for WHO๐Ÿคฆ

#nzpol The Prime Minister spent longer managing his Spotify Playlists than writing that speech. Nothing new, nothing to help manage growing unemployment, more cuts signalled to government investment. That wasn't a State of the Nation - it was asking people to forget the past two years.

Incredible really that the last period of significant growth in business lending was 20 years ago during a Labour Government.

Iโ€™m delighted to announce I'm standing as the Labour candidate in Wellington Bays/Rongotai in 2026. I'm thrilled to fight for better jobs, housing, and health services in our community. Look in the bio to donate, volunteer, and help us deliver a better government next year.

Who cut the $1000 Kickstarter? National
Who reduced the minimum contribution to 3%? National
Who reduced the member tax credit from $1040 to $521? National
Who then reduced the same member tax credit from $521 to $260.72? National.

Don't believe National on Kiwisaver.

#nzpol Good News Alert ๐Ÿšจ
ETU and @workersfirstunion.bsky.social won their case in the Supreme Court against Uber - meaning the court found some workers were employees rather than contractors.

Opening the door to more workers being able to claim their rights!

Just a reminder Dunedin hospital cost over run was about a 1/10th of this & they cut it immediately.

The tail pipe sucking idiotologues in National's cabinet are not good & proper people to run this country.

I dont object to people being wealthy, owning a $10m holiday home

I object top them abusing their wealth so they contribute less

I object to them abusing their power so they get an ever larger slice rather than helping everyone else

The rest of us dont pull this kind of bs
