The NZ Government is trying to withdraw the free fees year for students which will affect students that started their degree expecting one cost and end up with additional debt. Probably not the worst thing this government has done or tried to do, but it is disgusting. Please sign the petition to show your disapproval.

I read a great post from [Emily Writes Weekly](https://www.emilywrites.co.nz/i-dont-want-to-adapt-to-terrifying-weather/)

That link will want you to enter your email address and verify it in order to read the article. It’s worth it. Here are a couple of quotes:

I'm sick of hearing that every flood or storm is a "1 in 100 year event" as we're hit again and again.

This coalition believes only in making ordinary people absorb the endless shocks of climate change instead of doing anything toward mitigating those shocks.

#NZpol If National need any ideas for their campaign advising the public on how they can cut down on fuel use, I have prepared some lyrics which can be sung to a ripped-off version of Eminem’s “Lose Yourself”…

You better lose your ute, in the moment, you own it
You better never drive more than you need, you know it
You only get one tank, do not miss your chance to save
This opportunity comes once per petrol wave
