Still here despite all extradition attempts. It's quite phenomenal how he has survived.

Because of concerns about the safety of using US Tech, France is getting rid of Windows from its Government computers.

It's time, get all US Big Tech, Microsoft, Google, Palantir... out of Europe.

It is a security threat.

As a long term plan this may work. But I doubt we have ships or port capacity.

I wonder if freight trains could increase capacity without infrastructure investment?

We need free public transport. It actually reduces fuel use and the cost of transport (and cost of living). Ans cuts greenhouse pollution. Win win win action.greenpeace.org.nz/petition/fre...

Israeli soldiers are detonating entire villages in South Lebanon while taking selfies. Ancient mosques, churches, cemeteries, schools, hospitals - all being obliterated by the genocidal regime

#NZGovt has introduced 2 bills to replace Resource Management Act. These bills will accelerate the destruction of nature & embed the crony capitalism that has become endemic under this Govt. How the #RMA really works in practice, & why Govt is changing it #nzpol www.greenpeace.org/aotearoa/sto...

If you were reading a history of the Gilded Age and encountered a tycoon who kept pushing insane conspiracy theories about declining white birth rates and who used his vast influence to kill off nearly a million people in Africa, you'd very easily conclude that person was a white supremacist.

Why did NZ First cancel country’s public diesel reserves? NZ First have been busy sowing disinformation. So why don’t they take responsibility for cancelling a decision to stock public diesel reserves and increase duration?

Yes. The UN just tried to get the trans Atlantic slave trade voted as the most evil act ever done. The genocide of First Nations was pretty evil too.
Stopping USAID might have to settle for 3rd place.

Israel is holding 10000 Palestinian POW. The USA still holds POW from the Iraq & Afghanistan wars. The USA has violated international law continually in this latest war on Iran. Bombing schools, hospitals, power plants , bridges & double tapping so they kill rescuers.

Any politician promising roses with #Election26 in AoNZ needs to be reminded of this ⬇️bombed heavy industry doesn't fix fast neither does building a LNG terminal here in #NewZealand that electricity users pay for not gas users such as NZSteel, Oji etc

#economy: The Living Wage in Aotearoa has been lifted

The Living Wage in Aotearoa has been lifted to 29 dollars 90 an hour, with advocates saying the increase is critical for low-paid workers facing ongoing cost pressures. #nzpol waateanews.com/2026/04/01/e...

The coalition wants your vote, but not in a good way.

They are changing voting rules to stop people from voting, including on election day.

Get registered. Keep your vote. Use your vote.

Don't let the govt keep it from you.

I discussed this with a friend on a visit to Chicago. His advise was to always carry the amount of cash you are happy to give away in small value notes. Then scatter it around with no judgement. If they need to get intoxicated to live another day so be it.

The increase in unemployed, unhoused, cost of living, making it harder to get emergency housing, reducing food bank funding & benefit sanctions was always going to drive some people to alternative pathways to meet their needs.

Govt threatens to imprison homeless for 90 days at a cost of $49,680 per person Govt to empower Police to 'move on' homeless with threat of three months prison, costing taxpayer $552 per person per night; Govt adds 2,000 prison beds since election & delivers 420 new homes

FYI I’ve opened this one up for full public reading, listening & sharing after requests from paying subscribers. Their support allows me to do this public interest journalism on Aotearoa’s political economy around housing, climate & poverty in public. #nzpol open.substack.com/pub/thekaka/...

Earthlings!
Bernard discuses the cold economic facts of the “move on orders” policies from this government.
TLDR: Not only is it heartless it is shitty economics. #nzpol #cruelty #economics #prisonindustrialcomplex #homelessness #humanity #kindness

Likewise.

IT'S FEBRUARY 2026.

THE RAIL ENABLED HYUNDAI FERRIES FOR I REX WERE MEANT TO ARRIVE BY NOW.

Instead we have no rail enabled ferries, the two we have are clunky as fuck, and there will be no replacement ferries until 2029 at the earliest.

He did nothing useful at all. Didn't apprehend the thieves. Didn't protect the girls at the outside table. Didn't help the staff organise their customers.
A calm organiser is more useful than a reactionary fighter.

Great news

My wife and I were on a beach in the Wellington area and found this at a car park, in the grass.

It is approximately the size of a person's hand,made of bone, and intricately carved.

I've masked the lower half,as only the legitimate owner will be able to fully describe it.

Please share this...(1)

We have to stop having those photos go viral.

It is a tiny step in the right direction. We need to do so much better.

No!

Yip. We need to move further left than Labour to get out of this mess.

I do wonder if we should search the Epstein files for some NZ politicians & business leaders names.
