Video shows a man pinned to the ground as Australian police strike him repeatedly during an arrest. The man appears already subdued as blows continue. The incident occurred at protests in Sydney against Israeli President Isaac Herzog.

While I do have issues with Bryce Edwards and his repeated quoting of Ani O’Brien and irrational hatred of the greens (not in this piece), this one is really important to consider
One glance at Chris Penk's self published bullshit is all it takes.
This is obvious to anyone who observed their reaction to anything that contributed ANY hardship to one of their wealthy constituents.
Hey guys, friendly reminder to park outside Queensgate if you have a hankering for mall stuff. Parking is a nightmare.

Great party to be late to.
This is mentally scarring
Once a b̶r̶i̶l̶l̶i̶a̶n̶t̶ ̶s̶c̶i̶e̶n̶t̶i̶s̶t̶ marginal sketch comedian, he was exposed to toxic levels of gamma-irradiated far-right bullshit. Now Rob Schneider is ... The Incredible Sulk
Ah, Leftovers and No Obligations Day.
The “master negotiator” couldn’t even line up his own ducks in a row, so it now suits him to be bipartisan - but wouldn’t uphold his end of bipartisanship when it came to housing or climate change. Useless is the only adequate descriptor for Luxon.

The full spiked 60 Minutes CECOT package, clean & subtitled. 1/5
At exactly the moment when sensible heads need to prevail if the US Navy is to rebuild.
They're cooked.
Thinking this year will be the last we do the big trip to Auckland. If we were staying with family it would be different , but accommodation costs are stupid.
A PERMANENTLY LOWER GDP?!
“Treasury reports 45,000 fewer people employed than in 2023, and its latest forecasts show a permanently lower GDP growth trajectory compared with May projections due to this smaller workforce.”
Economic vandalism. 😠 #nzpol #OneTermGovernment

Ah Motels, where everything is fine until you do the one thing you really need to use a motel for and attempt sleep, only to find that the fridge is some kind of ancient Eldridge horror.
Read about this last night (complete with the detail of his own-head-like finger tracing the carefully scripted line as he read it out), and thought it might be a new low for Luxo, and perhaps the most blatantly racist statement from a PM since Muldoon.
LOL. You’ve always been a list candidate. You’ve never won an electorate seat. www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...
Quick reminder: The govt that goes on about "wasteful spending" has spent more money on things that have either failed, given 0 return or produced worse outcomes than any previous govt in decades and thats just in 2 years.
Strong 'ha, you can't dump me because I dumped you first,' energy here.

Thank fuck no one has to put up with her as MP, but for fucks sake fact check her - labour has announced one new tax affecting 1/10 people, she’s borrowing more than Labour has and ANY investment they make will go towards bettering us and future generations.

After the success of Archives digitisation of WW1 service records and knowing how much it has meant to our family to have easy, free access to my Great Grandfather's records I was living in hope that they would be treating this with the same mana.
Any time David Seymour appears in this news claiming to be standing with a minority targeted by prejudice and violence journalists have an obligation to remind us he accepted a donation from a man who threatened to "destroy mosque after mosque until they take me out"

What happened to the NZ Defence force records from WW2? Have they been completed?
I appreciate this graphic issued by the NZ Central Sikh Association in response to the Destiny racists for its inspiring message of anti-discrimination, mutual aid and unity across ethnic & faith communities, and also its subtle reminder that Sikhs are known badasses so why would you fuck with them.
Not only is this blatantly unfair, but for a Party that doesnt believe in collective responsibility,theyre holding ALL children responsible for the actions of others...
