If you are fuming about the derailment of climate ambition in AoNZ, how about helping fund an investigation into where this came from 👇

She is amazing. Because she is making women more visible. Go Jade! (And everyone who even just occasionally writes a Wikipedia article on something under represented).

If big dairy doesn’t have a viable business model in the face of climate change then it has to change or cease to exist

Yes true. The shuffle right of the left middle is wrong, is fascist, is a sharp blade to ecology, is punching down. People need to break shit with love?

You are great Rebecca. Thank you for your service.

My thinking is there is also a lot of clever funded messaging by the likes of the Atlas network influencing the people, (yes lots of racist af), combating any messages of equity and common sense. It's really sad and infuriating and makes me really want to change the systems of government. #MatikeMai

Yes.
I'd be keen to get rid of our ongoing white supremacist colonisation here in NZ. It's really pretty shit for all inhabitants. #nzpol

Sorry to hear this. It's hard searching and searching.

almost at the two thirds mark, just need 34 more people to pledge $5. In my experience, the closer you get to the goal the more pledges pick up, so if you can space $5 please do (note you won't be charged until November 1st, and then only if the goal is met)

I don't know where this revisionism has come from about the suffragettes - people saying "if the suffragettes were around today, they'd be considered terrorists."

The suffragettes were arrested and tortured, sexually assaulted and beaten by the state. They *were* considered terrorists!

How Aotearoa went from Xena, Princess Warrior to Voldemort in less than a year remains shocking.

😱🤮

It's a class war

Reading posts today, news from the US made me think we should do away with money.

This letter is FIRE, and more Democrats should speak up like this.

Excerpt from UK Parliamentary speech records - 1939: It is hardly necessary to point out to your Lordships how grave would be the effect upon revenue if the number of producers and taxpayers were seriously reduced and the effect upon our national finances owing to the burden of pensions for an older population; and the heavy charge of debt which we are handing on to posterity could hardly be borne by a greatly diminished population. Obvious also is the strategic aspect. The manpower of a nation is an essential element in preserving its position in the world. Germany already has a population of 80,000,000, and in the last six years her population, by the excess of births over deaths, increased by 3,250,000 or 4 per cent. Russia is increasing her numbers by 2,000,000 every year, and Japan is in- Toggle showing location ofColumn 606creasing her population by 1,000,000 every year. We have to consider also the duties of this country from the point of view of the population of the Dominions and the Empire at large. It was the overflow from this country which created the American Colonies, now the United States, helped to create Canada, created Australia and New Zealand, and has largely, of course, established our Colonies and contributed to the growth of South Africa.

4. Ghouls have been wailing, wrongly, about this *forever* - see the excerpt from a UK Parliament debate in 1939 below. Sound familiar?
5. The unpaid work that older people do for their families, each other, and their communities has massive value. We should feel good about their UBI! [4/n]

So many sitcoms in the 80s and 90s could never be made today (not because of woke or anything, but because like half the jokes are about answering machines, and everyone has cell phones now)

:(

I'm a firm believer in the statement 'no such thing as too much cheese'.

Keir Starmer's aides are reportedly telling him not to go to the COP30 climate conference, because Reform would attack him for it.
Yes, they might.
And he should wear it as a badge of honour.

Where's the hazard in that?
