Ludicrous headline above a picture of the empty suit parading as a PM - Luxon - reads 
Politically Correct:
Could this be the crisis that makes Christopher Luxon?

πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ€£ Honestly, he’s demonstrably worse than he was on day 1 and they’re still trying to sell him like he’s a wine that’s supposed to improve with age but was corked on day 1. #nzpol

Give it a rest Henry, we see him, we hear him and we live with the end result of his actions.

When you're paying $3 a litre for petrol... Remember Luxon's govt crashed the EV market, slashed public transport & cycleway spending & cut fees for importing gas guzzlers by 80% - turning NZ into a dumping ground for the worlds dirtiest most oil hungry vehicles.

Hey look, @bootstheory.bsky.social and @dimsie.bsky.social - I think we can conclusively say where Bryce and Danyl are getting their dog shit ideas from.

Beef, lamb, onions and wine: Kiwi dinner time staples in huge demand offshore How most of NZ's meat goes offshore, driving up local prices.

Daily, if not multiple times are day we are bombarded with the evidence of how we have completely fucked the fundamentals of our economy, all the while being told that exports are the only way to grow NZ Inc.

Food insecurity is a construct of NeoLiberalism

Nothing has changed for National nor their voters
Remember National also vetoed the Dove's Auckland Rapid Transit Plan, they also tried to veto the Mangere Sewerage Treatment Plant because dumping into the Waitemata cost less
Nats tried to Veto CRL until Len and AKL business told Key to pull πŸ‘‰

New shorter ferries: $596 million.

Paid to Hyundai for zero big ferries: $222 million.

Total cost of ferries: $818 million.

So we're paying $409 million per smaller rail enabled ferry.

We would have paid $225 million per larger rail enabled ferry.

Saving money? Pull the other one.

Lawyer: You don't regret that people might have lost income?

Cavanaugh (DOGE): No, I think it was more important to reduce the federal deficit from two trillion dollars to close to zero.

Lawyer: Did you reduce the federal deficit?

Cavanaugh: No, we didn't.

Stuff headline The Covid immunity cycle: Why catching the virus is basically our new booster Lloyd Burr March 12, 2026 β€’ 4:00am

🚨 If anyone has contacts at Stuff to get this headline updated urgently please do so.

Expert advice is that getting Covid repeatedly is not like building immunity, it's more like accumulating damage. Each infection raises your risk of long Covid and serious complications.

This is unacceptable.

If, like me, you joined InternetNZ last year to ensure your point of view was not overwhelmed when it came to board election (thanks) and AGM voting, then it's coming up time to renew your membership to continue that mission.

If you didn't join last year, maybe you'd like to this year?

Ah, Heinz. Closing the factories in New Zealand because you can.

Time to stop selling everything offshore and hoping they keep us employed instead of treating us like a cash cow.

Looking at all of you.

The real lesson of the second Covid-19 inquiry? We live in a post-truth world Government ministers’ creative interpretations of the royal commission’s report took spin to scary new levels.

Remind me again... which nation was busy building the ferries that Nicola Willis cancelled?πŸ€”πŸ€¬
We won't be getting any favours when we have to beg for fuel, and none of it will be discounted.

I'm glad we went through all that pain from austerity and cost-cutting for fucking nothing. Just like every other time it's been tried by every other government. At some point we're going to need a government that is going to invest in the people that live here.
