Every one is liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 14 years who, wilfully and without lawful justification or excuse, causes or produces in any other person any disease or sickness.
Yup you can now arrest pirates during the day time (also lobbyists if section 105F is to believed)
You can also arrest anyone with covid who coughs near you (provided you get sick)
There are not enough dildos in the world to chuck at this level of punchable fucking incompetence. #nzpol #OneTermGovernment

In the face of endless climate disaster and economic implosion, he always had just the right uplifting words:
"Welcome to IKEA"
"Welcome to State of Origin"
"Check out my Spotify"

Put solar panels on state houses. You could probably do the lot for $1.5b, would reduce energy costs for those least able to afford it, increase our grid resilience and save about the same amount in energy costs overall.

Also, remind me the last time ODT said a road with cars was at capacity…

Who wins and who loses from the regime's LNG boondooggle is clear from this quote: price spikes affect only industrial users. Meanwhile the rest of us effectively pay to reduce their risk.

Today I am announcing my campaign for the Dunedin City Council byelection.
I’m standing to offer leadership that's ready to go on day one; that's willing & able to challenge the government’s reforms; & that's prepared to make decisions in the best long-term interests of the city.

Newspaper headline "life sentence for Trump" paper is folded so you can't see the rest of the headline
Found this headline in today's ODT, sadly the headline continues past the fold

If you campaigned for the presidency on a promise to destroy these assholes, you would win a landslide the size of FDR in 1936, when he campaigned on a promise to destroy these assholes.

It's worth noting that this is not totally new information, this was reported in 2024 by Australian news, the Guardian article shows that the damage has continued and is ongoing.

Cartoon. Big bold black type reads, “Weather! Floods! Disaster!” At the bottom a woman is saying “And climate change?” PM Luxon is saying “Shhh…” and Climate Minister Simon Watts is saying, “Now…” and our Foreign Minister is saying, “Pffft, you’ve been listening to that lunatic fringe group, the World Health Organisation”
Fact: Climate change is making the weather more extreme.

October 2017:
Trump throws rolls of paper towels to starving Puerto Ricans after Hurricane Maria devastated the territory.
The whole world cringed.

Ah yes… Erica Stanford’s way of “Fixing” education.
Force all the politicised Atlas beliefs into children’s minds before they gain enough experience to realize only morally vacuous racist assholes believe that tripe.
Great job, Erica!
You’ve really taken on the Junior Goebbels role with gusto! 🤮

The revolution did not arrive with speeches, pamphlets, or a carefully moderated Zoom call about optics. It arrived in a cardboard box full of clearance-bin dildos, under purple neon light.
