[NZPol Parker TPPA]
Interesting to see David Parker's resigned. I haven't had any time for him since he (from what I could see) single-handedly shoved the #TPPA / #CPTPPA ratification down Labour's throat after they campaigned against it. What a stupid thing for NZ to sign up to.
I do not trust the #USA anymore, I have written to my government imploring them to seek deeper cooperation with the #EU #UK #Australia #Canada and other #TPPA Partners.
They are clearly an empire in decline and we should let them pass before they drag us down with them
Protecting members of the #TPPA from predatory behaviour from #USA and later I will write again encouraging them to look at #EU suppliers for military equipment, if trusted allies are to be treated so disrespectfully we must act
#Australia just like #NZ needs to seriously consider it’s economy and security relationship with #America as they have proven beyond doubt they can no longer be trusted, as signatories to the #TPPA I have already written to my govt reps and asked for them to look at what actions we can take
Your welcome ALOT of Kiwis and our mates in #Australia have mad respect for our #Canadian friends and I hope this incident with unreliable #America helps cement our relationship even more! As members of the #TPPA Lots of mutually beneficial trade and exchange all our country’s can gain from!
Note I’m personally horrified at #Trumps treatment of #Canada as proud NZ citizen who is also a #TPPA member nation I’ve already written to my foreign affairs minister and shadow govt decrying unreliable #America & asking how we can support help you!
#EU #Canada and selected #TPPA countries could also improve their economic prospects by allowing freedom of movement and easier access to med term work visas
Can someone please tell @POTUS that it was the #ParisAgreement who was supposed to be rejoining, not the #TPPA?

UN expert: "The #TPPA is fundamentally flawed and should not be signed..." without protections for human rights etc. https://x.com/nzhrla/status/694623169181806592
Jane Kelsey fairly takes @nzlabour to task over progressively backing down on the #TPP / #TPPA thedailyblog.co.nz/2015/11/07/exclusive-ope...
The @sierraclub's analysis of the #TPPA is pretty damning. And I for one would trust @bruneski over @nottimgroser. www.sierraclub.org/sites/www.sierraclub.org...
Well, the #TPPA text is out. No mention of #climate in the environment section, huh? www.mfat.govt.nz/Treaties-and-Internation...
Rob Salmond: We can expect the #TPPA to compromise efforts to curb NZ house price rises. http://ift.tt/1Q2kgti
Also, why is it that Groser et all still call it the #TPP not #TPPA? The rationale was that it wasn't an agreement *yet*. Uh, now it is?
Would it be too much to ask for those in our government who've read the #TPPA to at least agree on what the costs will be?
Oh, and ONLY movies etc will cost more under the #TPPA (says our magic lobbyist). Except government admits Pharmac will cost more as well.
Also, why is it the #TPPA deal was so secret Parliament couldn't see it, but not too secret for a government PR lobbyist to read? #ttrtpt
TLDR: Paid government lobbyist shills for the #TPPA, gets criticised for it, shills more. http://bit.ly/1KXlxjT
Did the activists fight hard over things that were never going to happen, or did they not happen because they fought so hard? #tppa
This last minute cliffhanger thing is actually pretty exciting. #tppa
Good analysis of failure of #TPPA talks from John Garnaut. Great cartoon too. www.smh.com.au/world/in-tpp-talks-barac...
Read the quotes from John Key on #TPPA increasing Pharmac costs in this Hive News email from Wednesday #nationtv3 www.hivenews.co.nz/articles/984-hive-news-w...
@HeatherRoyNZ says John Key was not sure #tppa would hike Pharmac costs. I was at Monday standup where he said it probably would #nationtv3
So what's in the #TPPA for NZ if even the dairy farmers' representative says it is "disastrous"? www.stuff.co.nz/business/farming/dairy/7... #realheadscratcher
Bailey on #TPPA: "If we can't get something reasonable for dairy it's just unthinkable for NZ to conclude here." www.radionz.co.nz/news/national/280154/can...
David Mason: 1st of Woodrow Wilson's 14 points for peace was no more secret treaties. Makes me wonder about contrast with #TPPA. #ANZSIL2015
The govt could soon sign the #TPPA which could give corporations the right to sue our country. Tell them #TPPANoDeal http://thndr.it/1AhKaCK
