Saw an ad on the back of a bus: How NZ’s ‘rock star’ MP went from politics to selling house The politician who is also selling homes in Hamilton.

The general consensus of the locals on the West Auckland street that it got broken into was that it was being stolen for a ram raid.

Funny, because I thought that was fixed thanks to murderer for hire Mark Mitchell.

I mean, its a 21 year old Toyota. Its worth two-fifths of fuck all. But, up until last night it got my family and I from A to B.

Not any more.

Thanks for fixing crime Christopher Luxon.

Siri, could you please define "token effort" for me?

It's alright Fam, Christopher Luxon and his umbrella are on their way!

I'd say using a modern phone for everything except telephone calls is likely not how Alexander Graham Bell intended.

I reckon the first cell phone that included a flash light function was the beginning of the end here.

Why's that? Genuine question.

By "multi generational" he means leaving it to the next generation.

Someone is concerned about her list spot.

This photo suggests it might have been the other way around.

'Incredibly exciting': PM lauds State of Origin coming to NZ, Eden Park to host 2027 match A range of new settings for the venue has been agreed by the Government.

Retail crime group rented expensive Symonds Street space against advice The group is paying $119,000 for the 2025/26 year.

Anyone who thinks that the Super City hasn't been a roaring success is living in denial, particularly if they live in the former Rodney District Council.

Auckland Mayor Wayne Brown slams Kaipara-Rodney breakaway pitch Wayne Brown says splitting off north Rodney would require law changes and risk major investment.

Honestly, if North Rodney wants to join the racist, dysfunctional, clusterfuck that is the Kaipara District Council, all power to them.

Don't kink shame, Graeme is entitled to his interests.

'National can get home with Luxon': Sir John Key shares blueprint for PM to win tight election The former PM urges National MPs to stick with Luxon and avoid a late leadership swap.

Nothing instills confidence in a National Party leader quite like John Key having to come in to shore things up.
