Cartoon. The introduction says, “Worried about the fall out from the war on Iran, Finance Minister Nicola Willis goes to Washington to ask:” and the image shows the Oval Office with President of the USA Donald Trump. He is being Jesus, with his hands raised, eyes closed, and wearing a white gown with a red sash and a long red tie. Nicola Willis says to him, “”When can we expect a return to normal?” Trump opens one eye and replies, “Huh?”

Worried about the fall out from the war on Iran, Finance Minister Nicola Willis goes to Washington DC, seeking answers.

That's something special.

Exclusive: Government quietly agrees to repeal number of Treaty references in laws Ministers made the decision but until now hadn't told the public.

"It’s closed out. It's finished. We voted it down yesterday, and it's over, and we're moving forward." - Luxon

“Cremated and buried”. - Potaka

They lied. Despite over 90% of submitters opposed and massive divisions caused.

Can we have a Luxon vs. Feijoa competition #NZPol?

The feijoa's so much more AoNZ than the bog standard lettuce, so much cheaper (free in every neighborhood) in these times of high costs of living, and so likely to putrefy in the blink of an eye for that added entertainment

So the PM is Chris and he succeeded Chris. Now Chris is Opposition Leader and he wants to have another crack at Chris in November. The only problem is that Chris wants to replace Chris before then if he can get the numbers, so he can face Chris at the election.

We've now raised £50,000.

Anything you can spare, will go towards challenging this Labour Government and taking the fight to Reform.

And most importantly - to creating the hopeful alternative.

Luxon could take a few speech writing lessons from Sánchez:

"Spain is the daughter of migration and will not become the mother of xenophobia.”

Powerful stuff. 🧵 👇

And she wants to lick inside my nose.

Hair on tummy.

Blissed out dog.

My dog is almost orgasmic with having the hair on her tummy pulled gently. Now she wants to bite me.

Not *if* he finally falls.

*When* he finally falls.

I’m always fascinated by how the media portrays our descent into fascism under this govt. It’s just a cute summer break with a person with eccentric things not importing an economic vandalism playbook noooooo of course not.

Funnily enough, that's exactly who I was thinking of too!

Oh, and sorry for the typo in your name :-(

A page in the Edge browser which says: " Think through your finances with Copilot in Edge" which probably means Microsoft will get to see all your finances, once you give it permission.

Errr, no.

Now I *have* to find somewhere to use this word.

Govt reviews Official Information Act costs as requests spike Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith investigates Official Information Act costs as requests rise 394 percent over a decade, sparking concerns over reduced transparency.

The more brazen government in New Zealand has admitted that it is working on this, after I broke the news at a recent parliamentary forum on democratic resilience and transparency:

Me, screaming into the abyss... The abyss: For fk's sake! The void is for screaming, the abyss is for staring! We're not set up to handle screaming! (c) MyWitches1111

Make sure you scream into the right place.

Yeah, we had 24h of HELL I tell ya'. Yes, your 30+ were there, you just couldn't see them. They should be back now.

Only very sketchy access and no way of knowing if a post had made it online. Seems more stable again now though.

Kiran, is this your fess?

That made me LOL 😂 😂 😂

Graysky is just about usable but, yes, it's bad out there.

I'm using my GreySky client app and at least I can post. The main BlueSky one is full of Limit Exceeded and similar errors.

Oh, and all the firms you represent have had *years* to plan for the transition. You've left it to the last minute, and *now* you want handouts?

As a tax payer, I say no.
