I hadn’t realised until I saw it on the news that today’s education announcement was made in a Business NZ environment…

Not in an educational setting…

A business setting…

Goes to show what they think education is actually for

Labour has been hammered on a capital gains tax for so long, that they have belatedly come around on it, meanwhile green are going hard on a wealth tax. Could be a place of friction

This. This is why the likes of Ian Taylor enrage me. Ardern saved lives and whether you like every decision is irrelevant. She made the hard calls better than her peers. Ian Taylor is alive because she didn’t let covid “rip” and all he does is rewrite history with the insight of a spoiled child.

Simon Watts’ climate and fossil fuel hats sit uncomfortably Comment: New gas drilling turns New Zealand away from a future of clean, cheap renewable power in pursuit of a dirty, costly fossil-fuelled past.

Was Simon Watts yesterday replaced with an identical, gas-powered android?

It's the only way to understand him signing an agreement to help the Pacific transition away from fossil fuels at 1pm and then vote to transition NZ back to fossil fuels just two hours later.

So look, it sucks that you have to think like a programmer. But if you're worried about it your best bet is

1. Do not let your phone / computer auto-complete your address
2. Start typing your address and wait till the website suggestions pop up
3. Pick your address from their suggestions

Darkly funny: signs appearing across central London, protesting Starmer’s use of anti-terror laws against peaceful pro-Palestine protesters.

every time I see smiling Israeli's gleefully ransacking aid convoys, grinning for selfies from a hill overlooking an ongoing genocide, Israeli politicians openly stating their aim to wipe out everyone from Gaza...

I feel a cold fury that sometimes surprises even me in its force

Home Enrol to vote in New Zealand’s elections and referendums. Our democracy is better with you in it.

If you go to check your enrolment on vote.nz and find that the website claims you are not enrolled: before you freak out, delete the "city" and "postcode" optional fields and try again

Autocollete broke this for me

It's bad website UX, but not evidence of fuckery
