@maxminn8e @henrycooke The fact that a Prime Minister, who is elected to serve all citizens, would say that, regardless of the context, is appalling.

@Banjolopy @henrycooke Yet thecwhole context was NZ should focus on being aspirational, ambitious, " we don't just do bottom feeding and just focus on the bottom". Such a shame people don't want the whole story just twist to own political bias.

Labour campaign chair Kieran McAnulty on his new opposite number Simeon Brown: “Doesn’t matter who the chair is when the PM is still a dud.”

@maxminn8e @henrycooke Like how the PM called people bottom feeders & the deputy PM called people dropkicks?

@henrycooke Wow, this is the professional people want to lead our country and negotiate with leaders of other countries. Attack the policy not the person doest appear to mean anything to McAnulty.

@chrishipkins you are probably already aware of a campaign of harassment against you being spearheaded by Gaye Stradwick, who led the same against Benjamin Doyle. Please use every legal weapon possible to stop her. AoNZ does not need that level of hatred in its politics.

@GayMaxine Yep the NZ Govt is complicit , silently sitting on the sidelines while witnessing the most abominable war crimes. Our nation can not pride itself on standing up for justice under this weak govt.

Israel murdered her. Our Govt refuses to condemn Israel for invading and indiscriminately murdering people in Lebanon. First Gaza, now Lebanon, & they've persuaded America to join them doing the same in Iran. Luxon is too cowardly to stand on the right side of history

@Feijoa_Chutney Equal rights lol but most of the Act party believe that there are 'chosen people' & support their apartheid & genocidal behaviour

Isn’t this disgusting? ACTs stand at HB Home Show… not 1 vote for the environment

@Kenlomax6810 @Feijoa_Chutney Ken, you have just told all of us that you are a silly little parrot

@Feijoa_Chutney Joan, you have just told all of us that you are a very woke idiot

New Zealand First leader Winston Peters to make State of the Nation speech….. anti- Maori, anti-Ardern, anti-immigration, antiquated rnz.co.nz/news/political…

@Birdsong2424 @ClintVSmith Off you go then

@ClintVSmith It is the duty of the free world to free others, we should be participating in this war

I reckon let's not send our 25 year old frigates for live bait duty in the middle of someone else's war. Ukraine has shown how incredibly vulnerable warships are in the drone age. We should rule out sending our sailors into the firing line.

@Mountain_Tui She needs to stop gaslighting. they're silently complicit in an illegal war & a genocide because they believe that land was promised 3000 years ago & despite Seymour harping on about the same rights & the same dignities for every person they treat certain people very differently

Willis says New Zealand PM doesn't need to care whether Iran war is legal or not

@matt_horncastle 'Punishing people for actions that occurred 150 years ago is morally wrong' Wait until you hear about how the Palestinians are being punished for historic beliefs

We need to end Maori settlements Even if we assume that wrongs were committed against Māori in the nineteenth century, it does not follow that modern taxpayers should be paying settlements today. Punishing people for actions that occurred 150 years ago is morally wrong. Justice means holding individuals responsible for what they themselves have done. It does not mean holding their children, grandchildren, or completely unrelated citizens responsible for the actions of people long dead. The taxpayers of New Zealand today did not confiscate land, did not write the laws of colonial governments, and did not make the decisions that are now being debated. Yet they are the ones expected to fund ongoing Treaty settlements and reparations. That contradicts a basic moral principle of Western justice: guilt and punishment must be personal, not hereditary. I am not arguing here about the history itself. For the sake of discussion, we can assume that historical wrongs occurred. The point is simple. Justice cannot mean transferring responsibility across generations and charging innocent people today for events they had no role in. At some point, a country must stop treating history as an open financial liability and instead move forward as a nation of equal citizens under the law.

@unimpotent @ClintVSmith Nah that's landlords & the tobacco industry reaping the benefits of their donations to the current shite govt

@ClintVSmith Labour when they get into government and by extension all your tax dollars

Wage subsidy & other job support: 22b Business support: 15b Health: 11b Housing: 5b Infrastructure: 4b Benefit, Winter Energy Payment increases: 3b MIQ: 2b Transport (incl bailout for Air NZ): 2b Education: 2b There's no 'missing 30b'. they just don't like what it was spent on.

@tauhenare Maybe now dairy farmers can pay for their water pollution themselves instead of taxpayers footing the bill AND having to pay top dollar for products in the supermarket

Whilst I would have liked for “NZ” to hold on to the Brands being sold, I applaud Farmers for taking up the Challenge and getting a return on Their investment. And there it is whanau, not my investment, #TheirInvestment. Their Property and no one else’s.

@Dipper68595393 @CLRenney What a stupid comment

@CLRenney Maybe get your members to work hard in hard times like the rest of us have to.

The CTU is releasing the latest policy on its programme for the next election - a New Deal for Workers. Fair Pay Agreements. Preventing workers from being forced to be contractors, when they are really employees. Simplifying access to Unions. More at: union.org.nz/wp-content/upl…

@KiwiCraig74 @john27230700 lol “individual merits not on the colour of our skin”. You don’t have to scratch too far beneath the surface to find the white supremacy

@john27230700 Yes we already do have equal individual legal rights, that's not relevant to this.

Another great day for ignorant Pakeha racists!

@henrycooke Wait until he hears about what’s happening to Palestinians & their homes

Winston Peters says a protestor smashed a window in his home, getting glass all over his dog thepost.co.nz/politics/36084…

@SaraReyi Free Palestine ❤️🇵🇸

Don't scroll without saying FREE PALESTINE.

@NaloRose @nat_trougher @dbseymour @actparty Employers! Pay decent wages! Pay equity now! So parents can afford rent & to feed their kids. There are no skinny wealthy people anymore, they look like they suck all the wealth from the workers!

@nat_trougher @dbseymour @actparty Parents! make your own kids lunch! Do they not have lunch during the weekend and school holidays, there are no skinny kids anymore they look like they graze all day!

NZ's far right racist David Seymour loses at Oxford, UK. Like Kiwis in Aotearoa, even the British reject this Atlas shill @dbseymour @actparty

@nick_alldag @NewstalkZB Keep making sexist comments about menopausal women tho, I’m sure it’ll work out well for you

@nick_alldag @NewstalkZB That was a journalist you utter moron. ‘Leftards’ what a pathetic little parrot you are
