Its the entire lack of response from politicians that turns me off them and away from the party they represent. If politicians are there for the people, why dont they engage with the clearly hinged responses and ignore the bots that clearly seek division? Difficult to address the bots.

That the media are by and large (with the exception of the irredeemable RNZ) throwing rocks at Luxon from all corners indicates the death by 1000 cuts strategy is already underway.

Husband found a dead ruru outside the house. No signs of attack on it, and looks like it just dropped dead. Anyone know if this is a sign or harbinger of some kind? I know if a ruru sits nearby or enters a house its ominous, but to die outside the house? #kikorangi#matauranga#maori

The rental property market in Brisbane is dire. 50 houses viewed. Over half 👎 due to 0.5zoom photos making lounge seem bigger than reality. 3 applied for. 1 gained. Win! Pool and gym onsite and room to move in the house. Brand new with ducted air con. Im happy. Now to sell NZ house.

If NZ Labour were serious about tackling intergenerational wealth transfer (theyre not) then wealth tax isnt the way to do it (varies each year). The most effective way is a 15% inheritance tax which is levied on the value of the deceased’s assets at the time of death. Partners pay now, or later.

Just wait till the Alpine Fault gives a decent jiggle and then National will be shown up for the utter charlatans they are, and will remain.

From afar I am now convinced that the only way to inject sanity back into parliament is by limiting voting rights to citizens only. NZ is one of a handful of countries that lets non-citizens vote. Citizenship should come with at least 1 perk. #nzpol

Saturday’s result has made me glad now to have accepted a job in Australia. NZ will be pretty shit for the next 3 years. Odds on this govt being a one term cluster.

Maiki Sherman highlighting that Hipkins pointing out Luxon keeping violent people in his caucus being plastered across papers tomorrow is not the W for Luxon she thinks it will be.
