We had a similar influx in Western Australia, to the point where rugby commentators endlessly opine that when the Boks play here it’s like a home game to them (btw it’s a bit like that with Kiwis these days at Force games 😉)

That moron Abbott and his sidekick Credlin are no doubt behind this.

Wealthy Americans top ‘golden visa’ surge in New Zealand and applications from China double US family who were 100th to be granted residency under investor scheme say they want to give back to ‘amazing’ New Zealand

“Wealthy Americans” loathsome people who should stay in the country they fucked up and face the consequences. #nzpol

… and now also somewhat predictably, with no friends.

Reminder: May 2021. Then Liberal Govt MP Tim Wilson joined a run in support of Indigenous Australians, leading the pack ... for the first 100m as it left Parliament House. Then, when the tv cameras stopped filming, he turned and went back to his office. 🙄 #auspol

I noticed that too on a recent long haul flight.

They also look similar. Has anyone ever seen them together in the same room?

False patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel.

Trump breaks silence on Kristi Noem’s alleged relationship with top aide President Donald Trump says he ‘had not heard’ about the rumored affair, which both the secretary and her adviser Corey Lewandowski have denied, but pledges he will ‘find out about it’

Just goes to show even if you put lipstick on a dog killer it still looks like a dog killer.

Um, no, what on earth made you think that?

… and if they respect a person’s freedom from religion. I am otherwise and equal opportunity anti theists. It’s all nuts. Keep it to yourselves and we’ll get on fine. I will never respect nonsensical or bigoted beliefs but I respect peoples’ rights to hold those beliefs.

Hopefully she’ll go to prison

Abbott and Credlin are still running the show then.

A bit like President Trump then? Why on earth @albomp.bsky.social believes he’s an expert Trump whisperer is anyone’s guess. #auspol

Starmer has finally grasped that Britain’s better off in Europe than with the US The prime minister has shown that the UK needs to stand with the friends it needs - not an American ally that doesn’t need Britain, writes world affairs editor Sam Kiley from Kyiv

And yet Albanese continues to delude himself that AUKUS subs will be delivered. We might be able to salvage the AUK component but the US is cooked. And don’t mention the French! #auspol www.independent.co.uk/news/world/e...

Not very often you can agree with Piers Morgan but hey, even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

Johnson partied as pensioners died alone. Why didn't Johnson get this pressure to resign. Farage appointed a Russian Agent as the leader of Reform UK in Wales. Why doesn't Farage get this pressure to resign The answer is the Tory Press.

Very good from @verybrexitproblems.bsky.social

Rebel Queensland LNP MP urges colleagues to ‘put on the full armour of God’ and speak against abortion Nigel Dalton says he sought to redeem himself ‘in the eyes of God’ by crossing the floor in an attempt to overturn the LNP’s abortion debate gag order
