As a member of the rainbow community I don’t think it’s okay that Labour still hasn’t put out an official press release supporting the trans community - regardless of whether they end up in a coalition with NZ First, I’ll remember that they didn’t use their platform - despite their stated values.

Got everything I wanted done today. So having another date tonight since the boys are going out with friends. Then tomorrow the chaos of final cleaning before my parents arrive.

Got a lot to do today and tomorrow before my parents arrive for their holiday. I’m starting off slow 🥱🥱🥱

Absolutely hilarious that the government had ALREADY had to rewrite their regulation banning puberty blockers because they were so incompetent, and the initial regulation was ambiguous and illogical. Even now the current wording allows side stepping of the regulation.

Thanks

An updated list. Some I missed, some have released statements since I released the original list.

Medical orgs in support of the ban remains at 0.

It’s so gorgeous here! I love them! Makes me smile every day! And I drive by those and they aren’t at full bloom yet but they are gorgeous!

The pōhutukawa trees make me beyond happy! I love them but my favourite tree is the jacaranda (sp?). The purple is amazing!!

Not the best beach day 😂 but we got some hot tub time and had a really good bbq! Love spending time with friends.

Labour have been gifted opportunity by PATHA releasing gender affirming care guidelines, and still haven't said anything (AS A PARTY) to support human rights of trans people

If you're not pushing back on the National coalition then you're helping them along

We had to flee Texas but those who stayed are some of the bravest, most loving souls I know. 💚💚💚
