Indian FTA currently being debated. Winston saying that NAT and ACT are tightening immigration settings specifically for Indians and he’s asking Labour if they knew that NAT & ACT plan on discriminating against Indians. He’s arguing that this places the FTA at risk. The Hansard for his speech will be worth reading as soon as it is available. That just felt quite surreal.

@OpinionistNZ They're not the same person. I was just pointing out a coincidence.

OMG. Indian business owner rorting NZs employment system.
Who would have thought?

You couldn't make this up. The owner of Trade Depot is John Christie. There's a big immigration broker who specialises in migration from India and his name is :

@RealJamesWoods The judiciary is the Achilles heel of American democracy.

Who’s behind the jihad to destroy the American judicial process?

To be honest, the more of these shiny objects there are to split the lunatic vote, the better. They only take votes from
each other. Luxon as usual is being a political incompetent. Instead of exploiting the divisions on the left, he continues to insult his own base and argue with NZF. The guy is just ridiculous. New Zealand wants shed of iwi grifting and the green scam and has rejected his insane immigration plans, but Luxo just trundles on like he was 10 points up.

They have abandoned the dumpster fires that are greens, browns and reds and now see this as the next shiny object.
Or - to be more precise - are polishing up a turd to look like a shiny object.

Half of all college graduates in NYC are immigrants or from immigrant households. So when observers say college grads in NYC are embracing communism this is not a home-grown phenomenon.

Have to disagree about it being too late Trevor. I mean hope springs eternally & all that but we saw what happened in 2020 with Judith Collins.
Is there anyone who could take over from Luxon/ Willis and provide a different result in Nov 2026?
IMHO the Nats have made their bed & now they must lie in it.
If there is indeed defeat, the blame lies with everyone who supported or was too timid to speak out against a leadership cadre who had no business even being in National let alone deciding policy.
After the election, win or lose, this must be sorted.

I don't think it's too late for @NZNationalParty to change its leadership. It's their last chance to escape defeat.
The Redbaiter@TheRedbaiter
The NZ Herald Poll of Polls show National's support falling as NZ First's support grows. Some say that's all good, but National's unpopularity is worsening to the extent that there is now a distinct possibility that it could lose the election for the perceived center right. National were warned time and time again that the Luxon/ Willis leadership combination and their fixation with globalist policies such as Net Zero, mass immigration and internet censorship would bring them undone. However their obstinate refusal to face reality continues. National are putting or have put the whole country at risk by allowing wets and/or progressives to control the direction of their party. And now its too late. Lets just hope NZ First and ACT can make up for National's losses and allow the center right to retain govt. (Unfortunately again for the perceived center right, ACT is not moving or possibly even trending downwards. Something needs to change there, and I reckon anyone with a working brain knows what the problem is.)

@Orb_Royberson @Snowbun85395351 @winstonpeters That is definitely part of the problem. Mate of mine hired a kid on summer break to help prep his house for painting. After the second day, the kid's mother called to say he didn't like the work because it was too hot, so he wouldn't be back.

@Snowbun85395351 @winstonpeters 'Kiwis don't want to work' because we have an entire generation who grew up without learning any sort of work ethic in their teens
Entry-level jobs teach work ethic, it's a learned skill, & it takes time and mentorship
Swapping young kiwis out for adult migrants is destructive

@saltyreigns The Hindus, Sikhs and Muslims hate each other too much to do that.

Nek minnit they launch the Jingly Party representing only Asian migrants and rocket to 18%, and are able to form a govt with te pati racist and the greens, who agree enthusiastically to their demands.
This isn’t actually hyperbolic.

🇳🇿 Indian leaders in New Zealand have warned political parties that they will mobilise their communities to vote for whichever party offers the strongest policies on hate speech and “social cohesion.” The groups claim people of Indian origin now account for around 18.4% of New Zealand’s population and intend to use that voting power to influence policy ahead of future elections.

This post doesn't say or imply that TD's John Christie and the immigration consultant Christie John are the same person. I was pointing out a weird coincidence-the name, the occupations, the timing, the two bald guys. I've pointed out multiple times that it is not the same person, even posting pictures of the two side by side.

Hi Gayle--I know that and the post doesn't say or even imply it's the same person. I was pointing out a weird coincidence-the name, the occupations, the timing, the two bald guys. I've pointed out multiple times that it is not the same person, even posting pictures of the two side by side. I can't help it if people read into what is patently neither stated nor implied.

@MaxWatersNZ @2ETEKA @saraHCP589 @chrislynchmedia Please delete this post. It is incorrect. It has over 100 reposts, and they can't be deleted until you delete this. John Christie of Trade Depot is not an immigration broker.

Thankfully we have @chrislynchmedia who bothered to investigate this story, and contacted Trade Depot MD John Christie who acknowledged the wording was incorrect.
“An advertisement was posted on SEEK for a warehouse and dispatch role at our Hamilton site stating that proficiency in Hindi or Punjabi was essential,” Christie said.
The wording was wrong, and that error is ours. Those languages should have been described as an advantage for this role, not a requirement.
Trade Depot is against discrimination in any form. We hire on people’s skills and attitude. This listing didn’t reflect that,” Christie said.
“Additional language skills can be a real asset at a branch, and that is what this role was meant to address.
We removed the advertisement as soon as we became aware of it, and we are reviewing how our job advertisements are written and approved so this does not happen again,” Christie said.
Everyone is welcome at Trade Depot.
We apologise for it, and to anyone it discouraged from applying.”
Seek should also be asked for comment - do they not ensure advertisements are legally compliant before publishing them?

🚩There are literally hundreds of Jobs popping up online advertised ONLY FOR INDIANS, e.g Trade depot in Hamilton are looking for a forklift driver - “OSH Forklift Licence is essential” and so is : “Proficiency in Hindi or Punjabi is essential for effective communication with team members and clients” NZ’s Human Rights Act 1993 and Employment Relations Act 2000 prohibit discrimination in job ads, and hiring on these grounds • Race or colour • Ethnicity or national origins. Language requirement is discrimination. Treating people differently or less favourably because of these traits is unlawful. But I guess Modhi is now in charge of our discrimination laws in addition to our immigration policies. Indians only hire Indians - everyone knows this. National/ Labour/Act are determined to destroy us with immigration. FFS Vote NZFirst #sol=742bdbd2a2477be8618dae4ef4b0cc91e1f2100a" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nz.seek.com/job/92816782?t…

The days of attorneys abusing and defrauding our immigration system are OVER. @HSI_HQ has filed FIVE notices of intent to fine attorney Vinod Doddamani more than $250,000 for filing 64 fraudulent documents on behalf Indian nationals. Our message to immigration attorneys is clear: if you engage in fraud, you will be held ACCOUNTABLE.

@PDChina Is it true that Xi Jinping is a furry with a Winnie the Pooh fetish? @XHNews Asking for a Tibetan friend.
The Great Translation Movement 大翻译运动@TGTM_Official
From July 1, Criticizing China Becomes a Crime China has just passed the “Ethnic Unity and Progress Promotion Law,” and its content is chillingly authoritarian: It criminalizes any criticism of policies toward Uyghurs, Tibetans, and other ethnic minorities, as well as religious issues. Worst of all is Article 63’s “extraterritorial application” it explicitly targets the speech and actions of foreigners outside China, including in Japan and other countries. Support for Taiwan independence? A single critical post online? Or even commenting the food of Panda Express is a bit salty. Perhaps you don’t like the way your your Neighbour’s Chinese EV is parked. If you ever set foot in China , even for a layover and the risk of detention skyrockets. The Xi regime is attempting to silence ideas and speech worldwide using domestic law. This is extreme authoritarian overreach that should terrify everyone. Will you still dare to visit China? #GreatTranslationMovement #China #FreedomOfSpeech #Uyghurs #Tibet #Taiwan
