🚩Book mark this post : This will soon be announced. Yesterday National said they are pausing the (Labour supported) bill for social media age restrictions - FOR NOW, Luxon has promised to push through the law before the election. The reason for the delay ? Well It’s going to be beefed up, made broader to take on full Orwellian proportions. Originally Nationals legislation was based on the Australian system, which has proven to do absolutely nothing to ‘protect kids’, as it isn’t technologically intrusive enough to replace parenting - which is what Govts around the world want. NZ’s own e-Karen Catherine Wedd (Tuki Tuki seat where Tane Randell will stand) & Erica Stanford confirmed yesterday ‘a more wide ranging solution’ will be implemented. Very soon National will announce that they will adopt the EU Age assurance platform instead, which is unashamedly and indisputably - digital ID. 🚨 (EUDI / eIDAS 2.0): The app is a lightweight “mini-wallet” using the exact same technical standards as the full EU Digital Identity Wallets. 🚨The key tool is the EU Age Verification App (also called the “mini wallet”) rollout across the EU by the end of 2026. Everyone will be given a national digital ID wallet, which will be used for their central bank digital currency. 🚨All Platforms (social media, YouTube-style sites, etc.) will be required to block or limit access based on ID verification/assurance. Every single user of the internet will be required to be verified, your phone will become the ultimate digital checkpoint. 🚨The system is designed to be seamless and cross-border operation 🚨The system is built to integrate directly with (and accelerate adoption of ) the full EU Digital Identity Wallets, which will hold not just age but passports, driving licences, education quals, bank details - credit /financial history, travel and movement details, and digital health records. 🚨The initial credential issuance is government-linked, which creates a single point of reliance on state-issued digital ID for everyday internet use, banking, payments, transactions - EVERYTHING. 🚨End of practical anonymity online Social media accounts would effectively require government-ID linkage, this will then extend to all facets of modern society. 🚨Surveillance creep / normalisation: Once the wallet infrastructure exists, platforms & govts will pressure for more attributes over time. 🚨Security issues with the system are many and varied. The system has already proven to be easily hacked, meaning your entire life can essentially be stolen. Despite multiple security ‘patches’ said to address these concerns, independent assessments found the security of the system to be completely “superficial” The Trojan horse of a social media age restriction - embeds government-backed digital ID (and hence control) deeply into every part of your life. Just another reason why Pauline Hanson, Nigel Farage (who are totally opposed to digital ID) are topping the polls in the UK and Australia in a historical political watershed moment. Watch this clip

🚩Breaking New Poll Talbot Mills. National still stuck in the 20’s. Only NZF’s strong numbers lock the left out. Luxon’s India FTA has done zero favours for the Nats. According to Curia via Hooton WP now leads all other leaders in net favourability. NZF have just under 6months to pull in another 5-10%. With Labour voters realising that Labour is now the party of the blue haired drongos, and not the blue collar worker, it’s entirely doable. (May 1 - 10) Nat 29% NZF 14% Act 7% —— lab 36% Grn 9% TPM 2%

New Zealand First has been clear - the Gene Tech Bill will not progress so long as it presents risks to human health or the environment. Laws may be outdated but that is not an excuse to compromise on fundamental safeguards.
