@BasitSubhani Then what? Boundary countback? #justice

That was a wide though. A tied test match would have been even better

@cjsbishop @BLACKCAPS This tweet aged well

That moment the aircraft doors close with England needed 10 to win and NZ needing two wickets. Come on @BLACKCAPS when I turn off airplane mode I’m hoping for good things!!! #NZvENG

For anyone who doubts, this is why test cricket is and always will be the pinnacle. #ENGvsNZ

@jo_moir So just another day?

Current state of play in the House: National is annoyed with Labour, Labour is annoyed with ACT, ACT is annoyed with National and Te Pāti Māori, Te Pāti Māori is annoyed with ACT and National and National is also annoyed with Te Pāti Māori and the Greens are annoyed with National

Then you could do another with a batsman in cricket and a red clad bowler who keeps talking up how fast he’ll bowl. It gets dark, he’s still at the crease “mate, what are you still doing?” “Waiting for the delivery”

@NZNationalParty idea for campaign add - average Joe keeps checking on a parcel. He keeps looking outside and sits on his deck until after dark, his neighbour asks him what he’s doing and he yells back “still waiting for the delivery”

@BenThomasNZ to what extent was the govt’s poll bump a result of them promising to scrap everything, and to what extent does that go back down now that they’re not (quite) scrapping everything? #nzpol

@coughlthom Telling Aucklanders to “be kind to one another” (while important) might not have been the best way to separate himself from the covid narrative

This is an incredibly defensive press conference. The subject, so far, is more about why the Mayor did not declare a State of Emergency earlier, rather than what the situation is right now.

4 yrs waiting for @eltonofficial, 2 hours battling traffic, 40 mins walking through rain. Piano and drums wrapped in plastic were the warning sign. Completely the right call if it’s unsafe but it’s not like they couldn’t see it coming?!?? Just gutted #eltonjohncancelled

Elton John. Cancelled ⁦⁦@NZStuff⁩

Rumours circulating that @avancenz has started working on a sequel called “red blood” - first chapter to be copied and pasted #nzpol

@coughlthom This is the equivalent of John Key resigning and Bill English going “no thanks” - massive, he was their next best chance. #nzpol

Grant Robertson also not putting himself forward as a candidate for leader.

There are about to be a hell of a lot of people who can’t afford their mortgages, especially those that borrowed up to the max with at 2-3%. Watch for fire sales in Akl especially #rbnz #interestrates

@MatthewHootonNZ Why is no media outlet reporting this yet? Is it embargoed?

Can anyone tell me why this isn’t big news on @NZStuffPolitics @nzherald @NewshubPolitics? Is it embargoed?

Roy Morgan’s latest poll: Labour: 35.4% Greens: 8.5% National: 31.5% Act: 18.5% National and Act would be able to form a govt on these numbers. #nzpol roymorgan.com/findings/8889-…

The new 3-phase plan to fight Omicron: Phase 1: we use the increasingly outdated tools we currently have to fight it until we reach 1000 cases a day Phase 2: the above tools are beginning not to work but don’t panic Phase 3: we’ll have the detail sussed by then dw #nzpol

Strong contender for loveliest roundabout in NZ @TheACCnz

@BLACKCAPS are looking at batting once and batting big, so we may be witnessing Ross Taylor’s last ever test inning 😢 #NZvsBan
