Strypey"I wonder how long it will be before they [the government of the day] go apeshit and use it to open another front in their racist hate campaign against Māori? And will ACT, who back in 2003 claimed to be the "party of property rights" and opposed retrospective expropriation, support or oppose a racist law change?"

*Exactly* what I've been wondering, get out my head! : P
It seems that "productivity" is the new "efficiency" for the corporatists and their reputation laundering machine;

Having shut down the Productivity Commission and ignored its findings ...
... and handed the power to determine what productivity means and how to boost it back to Treasury ...
... the NatACTs and their Winston First hangers-on are using it to mean whatever suits their agenda.
The Agender KiwiYet again David Saymour proves he is a sack of shit in human form. First it was the crusade against the indigenous Māori, and now the removal of voting rights for the newly of age. Next it'll be the voting rights of the poor or something.
Fuck David Seymour, and fuck ACT.

Because the idiots over in National want to import the culture war into my home country, we have to deal with this shit now, instead of... Oh I don't know? Fixing the Public Transport Infrastructure (and making #AucklandTransit suck less)? Reducing the Price of Butter? Fixing Roads? Literally anything else?
No, let's agonize over if English or te reo Māori is at the top of the passport
Māmā takiwātangaActually, I could say labour are out of touch if they think poor people are thinking about butter.
Well, this poor family has always treated butter
as a luxury item, occasionally to be used in baking, but not when canola oil would do. We don’t need instructions on how to mix butter with olive oil either because we can’t imagine why you would want to waste your olive oil on toast.

hauorataiwhenuaRuralFest 2025 is underway!
Welcomed by the sun in Wellington, our rural health and community leaders have arrived at Parliament to share their priorities, successes, and calls to action with key Government Ministers and Opposition Spokespeople.
These critical conversations will help shape the policies and commitments that define rural health in the lead-up to Election 2026.
#RuralFest2025 #RuralHealth #HealthEquity #RuralVoices #AotearoaHealth #NZPolitics #RuralCommunities #VoteForHealth
This week, our Rural Communities Chapter is hosting RuralFest 2025 at Parliament — a chance to hold the Coalition Government to account for their progress so far in achieving the Rural Health Strategy, and to ask all political parties how they plan to prioritise rural health in the lead-up to the 2026 election.
The time to speak up is now. Rural voices. Real change.
