Whakamataku - Toitū Te Tiriti 🍉

This!

Problem is Centralism Incrementalism that Labour is bewedded to = it says NO to everything that is progressive and National Building

Labour is the Party of No that ironically National harps on about

Whenever I’ve seen a middle manager doing this, they’ve done it with a smug air of “look at me being modern and productive and disruptive, unlike you Luddites who spend time thinking about and crafting your work.”

'Believe we can win': Labour rallies party faithful Labour Party faithful are upbeat as they rally in Auckland, roughly one year out from the next election.

"And where do we even start with the attacks on Māoridom and Te Tiriti?"
'Chris Hipkins took a swipe at Te Pāti Māori in his opening remarks to the membership on Friday'

Chippie, you are not being part of the solution! Stop being CoC-lite!

"These days, when people use the word efficient it can reliably be taken as a sign that ends have become means, and that what started out as a quest for the wise use of resources has now totally jumped the shark."

There’s an old saying

Better to be a split tōtara standing strong in its whenua, than an introduced common pine who gives unsolicited reckons,
stamps out the precious undergrowth around it
& still has the audacity to claim itself as ‘the future of te ngahere' #nzpol

The biggest technological revolution of our lifetime is underway and it's not AI:

This is an 😱. Two quotes:

“Deloitte’s were paid $435,000 to tell the WCC what it could “save” … have billed Wellington ratepayers to the tune of $12,428 per page. Golden words, indeed”

From that report:
“increased customer satisfaction provided through an AI-powered single front door.”

If we don't stand up and collectively exercise our democratic franchise to remove these scumbags from Government, we risk losing our democratic options to resist their anti-democratic authoritarian agenda.😱
Their wealthy donors only want us to be customers, not voters.😡

This shit-show Government' behaviour has triggered flashbacks to my 1960s childhood when it was legal for parents to brutally assault their children while telling them it was good for them and claiming they would thank their parents for the beating later on in life.💩🥚🤡

I would vote for a one issue party that was only about planting Te Tiriti as our founding constitutional document.

I would also vote for the TPM candidate in my electorate.

What say you @rawiriwaititimp.bsky.social

Ki nga toa te kotahitanga

Why can’t the Toitū te Tiriti movement become its own one issue political party with the only bottom line being

Constitutional change:

Te Tiriti as our founding constitutional document.

Sam out here supporting the SPCA. Awesome!

I wonder if he’s asked them whether or not, any unions stood them over and pressured them to write about Te Tiriti on their website ?

Would love to know…

Worst NACT act of the week for me was Erica Stanford’s “frankly disgusting” rant about schools supporting Te Tiriti. We are meant to be a democratic nation and the power are speaking.

Crown cover-up? When the state turned on its victims Offices of the Attorney-General and Solicitor-General have been implicated in what a Royal Commission calls a 'cover-up' of torture and sexual abuse of children in the custody of the state. Who else w...

“But the evidence for its conclusions is there and it is comprehensive. MPs, high-level bureaucrats and Crown lawyers spent tens of millions of dollars across decades on strategies that the Royal Commission found amounted to a ‘cover-up’ of a system of abuse against children.” #nzpol 2/2

Ffs. A Senior Manager that has form for this type of behaviour?? But has had no appropriate or sufficient consequences to make them change. Then, imo, it’s by design to do further harm to the people the state believe harmed the state by speaking out. 1/2 #nzpol

Alongside a picture of the NZ PM his shallow and callous statement reads: I'm wealthy and I'm sorted': The PM's finances, explained

Luxon reckons that people who can’t afford electricity to cook have no business complaining about the high cost of meat and essential food items and they should also desist from raining on farmers’ parade. #nzpol

Part of why this stuff keeps getting underreported is that our media class can’t get it through their thick heads that this is not a weightless debate over political ideology, but a declaration of war on over 100 million Americans, which DHS is announcing an intent to eliminate

Luxury Marmite Sandwich on Instagram: "There’s no place like home… #nz #nzpolitics #politics #politicalmemes #meme #satire #luxon #wizardofoz" New Zealand's political scene is on the verge of a significant shift.

A true classic.

In a functioning democracy, especially one of the parliamentary variety, the Defense Minister would be resigning today & the vote of no confidence in the government/chief executive would be taking place tomorrow. Alas, we are not a functioning democracy, & presidentialism was a grave mistake.

Sadly, but they were also holding them ransom and refusing to release them.

American style vote gerrymandering where politicians want to dictate that only their right-wing voters are allowed to vote, because they know they can't compete on facts or good policies #nzpol

Letter to the editor eviscerating Luxon’s leadership and personality, and describing the mess the coalition has made. A few snippets: ‘The highly-touted meeting with Trump seems eons ago. Even there, Luxon’s diplomatic coup was simply being shorter and balder than the president.’ Luxon’s “hands-free” leadership style has enabled his coalition partners to pursue divisive and extremist policies, allowing him to be relentlessly focussed on securing the next selfie.’ And the kicker: ‘In a work dominated by personality politics, he is at a distinct disadvantage in not having one.’

Found on twitter. Natalie from Oamaru taking Luxon to the cleaners. That last sentence - oof.
