This is what local political leadership looks like.

The answer lies in longer term solutions, including the building of more public housing and the resourcing of critical support services.

Instead all we're getting is the criminalisation of poverty.

Isn't it time that the AoNZ electorate recognised that this business/wealth paradigm is all bs? Being a CEO has no bearing on your ability to run a country. Being a corporate stooge doesn't make you a decent finance minister.

We should all be saying this; this is #Trump 's illegal war to distract Fox News viewers from the #Epstein files, this is not our war.
Never mind "No War for Oil!"
It's now "No War for Paedophiles!"

Oh lawdy. That is so Scyzophoa Luxon, grabbing the latest jargon from the cesspool that is LinkedIn to add to his wankernomics repertoire.

I'm not sure I would describe him as an economist. Financial journalist? Yes. Economist? No.

Also, too many people think politics is (for want of a better word) tribalism.

The House: MPs agree infrastructure debate should be politics free

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say *everything is political*.

You want to make a choice between houses or pipes? That's political.

You want clean water? That's political.

Too many people confuse politics with ideology.

MPs are using OIA exemptions designed to protect candid policy deliberation to hide AI chat logs. One minister used AI across 53 logs to shape RMA and infrastructure policy, structuring thinking, framing options, drafting correspondence, but then refused to release any of it.
