I saw someone from Stuff at the Auckland protest...not sure how far they got with it though.

Labour need to shift left but also capture the centrists....

Huh?

Raping, more like.

So .. Judith Collins is championing the repeal of a bill that ensures access to govt information for low literacy citizens because "it's a waste of money" but can't actually define what the "waste" is other than referring to possible costs that have already been incurred three years ago. #nzpol

And for the rest... I'm just reading "I don't have that information". #nzpol ...

So we're saving money on... something that has already happened...? #nzpol (this is pretty much a direct quote from the press release).....

So on 7 April I asked Judith Collins these questions about the repeal of the Plain Language Act. #nzpol (thread)

So dude who was banging on a out democracy a few months ago doesn't believe in one of the democratic processes.

Public participation is essential to human rights, because it empowers groups that are marginalised and discriminated against. Under urgency, Bills bypass select committee which means they are not exposed to public scrutiny. The people most likely to be affected cannot tell politicians what it will mean for their lives. Consequently, voices of caution or dissent are silenced.

Those guys who are DTF and put their kids on their Tinder profiles are just GCs, amirite?

One of my fav shows. Pax and Nic's chemistry is superb. Nerdy older sister/annoying little brother vibes.

Fuckssssssake! 🙄

I loathe Judith, but at least she wasn't weak.

But many public servants don't need those things, but are still being "managed" back into offices. Make it make sense.

What the fuck is this nonsense of a sausagefest? #aotearoa #nzpol

Another attack on Māori. #aotearoa #nzpol

Exactly.

Well given the current state of things is we are lurching from crisis to crisis because "we haven't invested in enough electricity generation" it's safe to say this hasn't gone well. #nzpol #newzealand
