Incredible turnaround in #Brazil where voters came out to give #Lula a clear win in 2nd round of election. What a champion! This & #Serbian Student List win must give hope for parties of inclusion, sustainability, & decency everywhere. Next #NZ? theguardian.com/world/2026/o…

Luxon blames 300,000+ Kiwis for not enrolling and blames the Electoral Commission, but takes no responsibility for changing the law in the first place. There's literally no gain. The only outcome is disenfranchising 300,000+ Kiwis! They went out of their way to do this!

Just a reminder that National and Act think freedom of choice means “do as you’re told or else.” They use this argument against collective bargaining. Most Kiwis will not push for higher pay or better conditions. Nat/Act know this. Fair Pay Agreements will help fix NZ

If your solution to homelessness begins with removing homeless PEOPLE rather than creating affordable HOMES, you’re solving visibility. Not homelessness.

Luxon "it'll take as long as it takes"...negotiations would wait for the final count...nearly 3 weeks after polling day. Nat/Act/NZ1st changed the law on a lie that it would give a quicker result. It was about preventing thousands of people from voting. rnz.co.nz/news/politics_elec…

capitalism’s greatest trick was convincing the working class to dream of being rich instead of questioning why they’re poor.

ACT wants to scrap the firearms register, National/ACT want punitive welfare cuts. Both love boot camps & prisons while gutting jobs. That's a recipe for more gangs & violence. Prison doesn't undo a crime. They are soft on preventing crime and their policies cause more of it.

Not exactly a mystery as to why National dropped "back on track" for this election:

First Simeon Brown culled the Health Payment Integrity Team - that had oversight of payments to private providers. Then made it secret. Meanwhile kids can't get cancer treatment 🤮 #nzpol Health NZ under fire for secrecy over private hospital contracts rnz.co.nz/news/politics/5710…

It’s not a "cost of living crisis" - it’s a cost of billionaires crisis. They're bleeding us dry, degrading democracy and propping up the dictators and autocrats.

Capital gains tax has kept the housing market affordable in most of developing countries in OECD and helped diverting money from unproductive (housing speculation) to productive parts of the economy. We are building our economy on housing bubble which is IDIOTIC.

Huge profits for oil companies and NZ government who's done nothing to help us while they take in the 15%gst. Labour will cap public transport at $20 per week and Greens make it free for low income people. #nzpol

There are over 400,000 people wanting work or more work in NZ. There are 20,000 job vacancies (many casual / part-time). Can anyone do their hour of math learning and help Simeon out with this pretty fking basic equation?
ANNOUNCED: National will crack down on long term benefit dependency and will require random drug testing on beneficiaries. If you can work, National believes you should.
