Horrifying.

Fuck Labour, man. A once-in-a-generation majority and what did they do with it? Fucking nothing. Nothing to inspire, nothing to give hope. You can bet National won't be doing nothing with their term.

Lessssgo Takutai. Tāmaki Makaurau looking tight

AND YET HERE WE ARE

We can’t have a PM who believes abortion is murder AND that dinosaurs never existed

I just yelled OH YUCK NAH

I really hope this doesn’t happen in Auckland Central. Chlöe should have it comfortably but there could be a split there too

ahh, thank you!

dumb q: are the advance votes counted in advance? i thought nothing was counted until 7pm - is that right?

yeah i had a look on book my vaccine beforehand and the only qualifiers to book were >30 & haven’t had covid or booster in the last 6 months. I’m not sure why that differs so wildly from advice to pharmacies, it’s so frustrating!

she’s got a bad case of whacked out poo brain

they’re cool chairs! but Moira has commandeered that one

Would a 20-year-old Māori unlawfully entering the home of an ‘elderly Pākehā man’ only get trespassed?

it’s not great eh

ugggh. you think they’d be actively encouraging boosters not discouraging!

oh lordy. this gatekeeping around access is just so weird.

wait…are chemists et all being dicks about giving more boosters? I’m due for another one and thought we could just wander in and do it if it’s been >6 months?
