Magnificent mullet!

“Opponents of the proposed access warn that without clear, robust safeguards, information could be used by agencies such as the United States’ Immigration and Customs Enforcement – raising questions about how and when biometric details might be stored, accessed or repurposed.”

To be expected given the state of everything

So cute. I hope wee cat does have a home and was just lonely

Interesting analysis here of the structural limitations the left currently faces.

There are times I wish we weren't governed by a mindless sycophant #NZPol

Yes, similar names and looks can be confusing but may I remind you that our NZ parliament has 4 white men named Chris, one with last name Luxon while another guy (different party) is named Luxton, and just the National Party contains all these easily distinguishable bald men:

Simeon Brown MP Labour’s COVID-19 restrictions were some of the most stringent in the world, and Kiwis paid the price. New Zealanders remember not being able to visit loved ones in hospital, struggling to secure a managed isolation spot just to return home, and keeping their kids home from school for months on end. Aucklanders felt this more than most, with Labour’s decisions leading to the region spending more than six months in lockdown – the longest of any region in the country. The uncertainty, the isolation, and the toll it took on families, small business owners, and communities were all a result of decisions made during that time. Those decisions had a significant impact on everyday Kiwis, and it is important we take the time to fully understand why those decisions were made, so that any future response properly weighs the health and economic needs of all New Zealanders. Our Government expanded a Royal Commission Inquiry into the COVID-19 response, and yesterday we received their final report. The Prime Minister has asked me to lead the Government’s response to its recommendations – because New Zealanders deserve answers, and we are committed to making sure the lessons of that period are never forgotten.

#NZpol I’m not liking the tone or angle he takes with this. It feels like foreshadowing pushing negative views "because it was Labour".

This would be rewriting the past to suit election-year politics.

Many of us warned that the second "add-on" phase looked to include political motivations,

The cutest thing you'll see or hear today 🤩

What the actual?

imagine being an Iranian democratic activist staring at a burnt down girl's school and wondering how to make the case for the US being a friend to Iran

completely relatable and I know a lot of us are feeling this way, just remember that we resist + fight best when we are fed, rested and have our foundational baselines taken care of as much as possible.
music helps too:

Finally, to the great, proud people of Iran, I say tonight that the hour of your freedom is at hand. Stay sheltered, don't leave your home. It's very dangerous outside. Bombs will be dropping everywhere. When we are finished, take over your government. It will be yours to take. This will be probably your only chance for generations.

This is a Caligula level insane statement for a President to make. Regime change via air strikes and demanding rubbled schoolchildren & grocers to rise up and complete the mission has never ever happened in the history of the world.

Probably because the port is at Lyttleton?

I’m so sick of being governed by morons. I just hope the majority of voters have noticed this and take action in November. #nzpol

Is major trip generator/drop off point like schools and stuff?

Hey friends! If you’re pondering what type of car to buy for your family, might I humbly suggest a Volvo? I’m partial to them because my very first car was a Volvo, but a week ago when someone ran me off the road at 60mph its safety features absolutely saved my life

Look at all these marshmallows!

Isn't this synonymous with some sort of ner'd'well behaviour that's been buried?

FENZ accuses firefighters of ‘scaremongering’ and ‘gambling with safety’ as union battle heats up Union members are set to strike again on Monday.

Begging journalists to stop repeating the line (lie) "the union continued to escalate industrial action"

A Union represents the wishes of it's members, 97% of whom voted to strike in this particular case
