Read this verrry slowly. New Zealand & Australian farms & agriculture & exports & prosperity were grown from Pacific phosphate fertiliser mined from Nauru & Banaba in Kiribati for decades. They lost land & culture to grow yours. Ignorance of this is high on all sides of politics

Hello Twitter family. This beautiful young woman is battling the same osteosarcoma that my daughter Ruby had. Her family is not working, to spend their time with her. Any donation, however small, will be a big help to them. Please share. Thanks. gal.to/691d4

As #Matariki appears each morning, it'll shine on restored dunes at Castlepoint on Wairarapa’s wild east coast. 70 people hit the beach on the weekend to plant 1500 native plants in a project led by Te Hika o Papauma hapu and local residents.
