#ChristopherLuxon's govt has denied #Palestinians visas & passage to #NZ. #EricaStanford lied to NZ public about her ability to get Palestinians here. NZ Palestinians are fighting to get their family members out of the illegally occupied country.
SHAME on you Stanford/Luxon.
SHAME.

If/when Collins gets interviewed next she should be asked where she gets the fucking gall. Honestly, writing 'an open letter to the NZ public' about ongoing employment negotiations accusing the *other* party of playing politics and being dishonest about the cited example.

Code Brown has stated that the senior doctors are paid 325k
The doctors work a 1000x harder than the entitled one and deserve more.
I have more respect for our doctors than Luxon

16.10.2025 05:17 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0To the Right Honorable Simeon Brown Don't lecture us on ethical lines I'm confused about what you think we're crossing As doctor, these are a few of mine Ever heard of non-malificence? That's the one about doing no harm When we're all underpaid and understaffed It risks lives, so we raise the alarm The next one is autonomy Giving people the right to choose But we're struggling to provide all the options As you've gutted all the systems we use Third on the list is justice That's about fairness and equity Pretty much the opposite of your plans Of privatising whilst claiming "efficiency" And the final one is beneficence Taking action that's good for our patients Which includes striking and speaking the truth Whilst our health minister spouts nonsense So those are the principles we work to I often wonder what your ones might be What ethics you use to justify This gaslighting and disinformation spree

Even saying "two executives" appears to be generous. It's 1.32FTE so it's one executive (King) and a part-timer doing about 1.5 days a week.

Hereโs a little wero or challenge. Before you leave the house, place your feet firmly on the whenua, take a big breath in, hold it, then do the biggest sigh. Then do it again.
With each breath, let go of some of the little worries you have, and then leave the house with a clear mind.

Nicola Willis promised affordable tax cuts and zero borrowings - OR she would resign.
Instead, Willis borrowed $12,000 million i.e. $12 billion & has created another $8 billion hole in the budget. She's now down $20 billion and counting #nzpol #kiwi
