Anger over West Coast hydro scheme's fast-track approval A plan to fast-track a controversial West Coast hydro scheme has been given an initial go-ahead.

The West Coast Electric Trust, which owns Westpower, is currently having an election. So if you're in the trust area, maybe vote for a better trust? www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...

'May be unusual, doesn't make it wrong': Public Service Commissioner responds to legal action filed by teachers union NZEI, the primary teachers union, filed urgent legal action after the government announced it was offering pay rises to non-unionised teachers.

#nzpol It is totally unacceptable that the Public Service Commissioner is attempting to turn teachers against each other and undermine solidarity across the sector. As New Zealanders we love our teachers. They deserve to be paid what they’re worth.

Winston Peters has 'no doubt' he could've stopped contractors law if unions went to him earlier The Green's Teanau Tuiono says New Zealand First doesn't "give a damn" about workers.

I’d love to see a general boycott of all ‘NZ teams’ where tournaments are in the USA for both USA domestic and global reasons. Key ones off the top of my head include the FIFA World Cup , Olympics and of course the All Blacks… and I love the Olympics and the World Cup.

Time to show a spine.

Anyone thinking of going to the Olympics or World Cup, don't

Every country should be having a very serious think about the safety of athletes, players, officials and fans.

It's morally wrong to go and give affirmation to the regime in the US

Every day gets more disgusting, ENOUGH

GAZA On Philip Crump (Thomas Cranmer) - he’s now on NZ On Air Board thanks to Goldsmith, as well as an NZME Director, plus a friend of someone in Kiwibank Who leaked this information from within Kiwibank? Below is a tweet: "Kiwibank has closed the account of a group that raises money for the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. It appears it has done so with reference to US law, not NZ law. Someone in Kiwibank leaked confidential info about the account to right wing blogger Philip Crump"

Um, again wouldn't Kiwibank need to launch an internal investigation into who is leaking confidential account information to Philip Crumb aka Thomas Cranmer?

Fuck Peters. Fuck Luxon. Fuck Seymour. They do not represent us. Time to step action up. Voting this trash out will take too long for the people of Palestine.
