If the physical weight in kilos is the reason preventing the government reading the report of the suffering of those in state care, or at least be so relevant as to raise the weight in the context of not having read it, maybe they could read a fucking pdf version or something.

If Luxon says any of these phrases he means "I don't care." or "I'm just trying to stop you asking questions."
#nzpol
"I care deeply..."
"I'm deeply committed..."
"We're looking at the issues..."
"I'm not aware of..."
"We inherited X and it takes time to turn things around."

I know 2024 has been accused of having terrible writing but having the UK election on July 4th and the US election on November 5th seems a bit on the nose.

Francie is here with a BLEP vs. MLEM tutorial. A blep is when the tongue is just hanging out at rest, stationary. Mlem is an action word for when the tongue is performing a licking motion - hence the name which is an onomatopoetic interpretation of the sound it makes.

If nothing else, it has caused a huge problem with trust and democratic participation. Why would anyone—teachers, scientists, etc—put in all those extra hours again in future when their work can be thrown out so easily?

Useful for the next few NZ elections.
…Especially if the public turn on the NACTCOOKER coalition for their overt power grabs & corruption, & Luxon gets angry at the bottom feeders criticizing his hollow, business-fellating faux-governance…
There’s no rage like incompetent privilege rage.

What views can't be expressed in polite respectful ways? If a Code of Conduct is stopping councillors from saying racist or defamatory things, isn't that a good thing? If the Code stops them from pushing junk science like anti vax views, that's good too! #nzpol

Not sure leaving nz during lockdown can be called breaking quarantine. Restrictions were on arrivals, not departures. Anyone could leave. Difficult and expensive to find a flight though. So few planes were coming in those times. But if money is not an issue, then yes, it was very easy to leave

So many Pakeha Dudes Paid To Have Dubious Political Opinions are taking energetic public stances that talking to children via social media platforms foundationally designed to protect the privacy of those messages is not Dodgy At All, Shut Up.
They feel *very strongly* about this.

“Life in Aotearoa is increasingly precarious – and young people shoulder the burden
