I wanna see this applied to MPs' salaries and attendance in Parliament first

Good PR, a strong union, and power over people's lives will let you bury a lot of crimes.

Personally I suspect we are headed into a period where goods will be a lot less freely mobile than in recent decades, unfortunately. Probably people too. So if this agreement counteracts that, good.

That would be an interesting topic to discuss. But since you say "it depends if you think [...]", I gather we at least agree it is not axiomatic.

That would be true if FTAs confined themselves to trade issues. They rarely do.

Then why is he agreeing to it now!?

Ffs, what a waste of space he is

I don't think the Allies were saints, but I don't think the trials were a sham either. The Soviet Union was involved in running the trials too; do you think they wanted to protect right-wing ideology?

I think we might have to agree to disagree.

The article actually suggests an increase of up to 34% in the area with extreme landslide densities. Areas near previous landslides, steep, or treeless areas showed the most increase.

Not terribly surprising tbh. "Plant more trees!" was a recurring line in Footrot Flats (NZ comic from 1970s-90s).

It is actually quite easy for "normal" people to become fascists. A mass outbreak of mental illness in 1930s Germany was not the reason Nazis came to power.

Look up "banality of evil".

i’m someone who lives with psychosis. some of the kindest sweetest people i know are psychotic. calling someone a psycho when what is actually meant is “i find their beliefs dangerous & reprehensible” is the fastest way for me to lose any shred of respect i had for whomever says it.

Too deep for me this early in the morning lol

I know it's propaganda, but I find nothing in it I disagree with

It's AI, but it's art

Almost eleven, lol

"we sing this not in anger, but in solidarity"

There are many wrong ways, to be fair

Some people are evil 😡

The way Luxon and co are playing it, there'll be plenty until the day before there's none.

I hope it goes well! 🤞

Some effects of climate change are rapidly getting worse. It doesn't all follow a nice steady trend, even if global temperature increases do.

It's like an abusive cult

"We were in bed with NZ First *before* the racism. Well, before the current racism anyway."

bigger, more detailed story here in the guardian than I've seen in any NZ media

why is that? 🤔🤔

Which is super strange right? Because if teachers pick up anything else wrong with a child’s health, for example hearing loss, vision problems, impetigo etc. you can and must tell the parents to seek medical advice.

Just. Not. COVID.

And they are pretending that the aim is to get back to normal.

It's so awful :(

"IAG wanted to offer insurance to as many people in New Zealand, for as long as possible."

I think there might be an implicit threat there.

WHERE is it circulating RNZ? WHERE was it posted? WHERE did Jones appear? Why should that platform matter, profoundly, for any critical appreciation of what he said? What has that platform seeded, and spread with regards to what Jones noted, and how? What's he signalling, to whom, & why? #nzpol

He'd know all about egotistical rubbish, omg
