@HobsonsPledgeNZ We tried that by being promised the equality of being British citizens when the treaty was signed and yet here we are not without land, and disenfranchised. Yet you remain willfully ignorant of the damage that was done

For years, Treaty clauses have been used to divide New Zealanders into different political categories and expand co-governance through the back door. Standardising these references is a step towards one country, one system, and equal rights for every New Zealander.

@NMowbray23 Do one on the tax payed in Finland by respective income brackets and corporate rates as well. You don’t want to be carefully curating a narrative without all the information

WILD. Comparing the NZ government structure to Finland’s. A picture says 1000 words !! Both countries have similar populations (5.5M). The structures behind are very different. Finland: • 12 core ministries • Clear vertical accountability • Defined ownership • Built for speed, clarity, and execution New Zealand: • 40+ departments • 80+ ministerial portfolios • Layers of overlapping responsibility • Super-ministries reporting across multiple ministers The result? Accountability blur. No improvement. Massive waste. In any high-performing organisation, if everyone is responsible, no one is. NZ has exceptional people. But we need systems designed to deliver outcomes, not a birds-nest structure that creates no improvement or efficiency. Fixing this will be a HUGE unlock on NZ long term. All parties should come together in a bi partisan way to sort this out.@actparty @NZNationalParty @nzfirst @nzlabour

@senatorbabet So you don’t recognise the privilege of a public service and rule of law and how they provide the framework for your success

Capital gains tax shouldn’t exist. I risk my money. I build the business. I make the investment. I do the work. I take the risk. So why the hell should the government take a cut of my success? They risk nothing. They create nothing. They just take. Parasites. F’en parasites.

@HobsonsPledgeNZ So do remember his remuneration is set by the trust a bit like other trust CEs are. So there are many trusts and charitable CEs who do not attract the interest of Hobsons Pledge but they are also adjacent to politics

Nearly $400,000 in bonuses. All while questions continue to swirl around governance, political influence, and the relationship between charities and campaigning. Would any other political figure survive this level of controversy without relentless scrutiny?

@HobsonsPledgeNZ Because he is signalling to his electoral base a bit like you are activating the less supportive of diversity. There is no money in solving an issue only in constantly stirring up fear

Minister Watts has said he’s uncomfortable with the current situation. So why not fix it? A workable amendment is already on the table. Unelected members could still sit on committees, contribute expertise, and participate in discussions, just without voting rights. Simple. Fair. Democratic. This afternoon government ministers will gather for a cabinet meeting. This is your last chance to message the minister and let your voice be heard. Get your message to the the minister before it's too late: hobsonspledge.nz/protect_local_…

@nogps1 So post a picture of what they actually look like for comparison sake. Educate instead of being easily placed as another ignorant person. BTW educators do not say go and do my own research they encourage and support understanding

The "experiment" excuse.. Don't you just love it when the media suggests that something may happen.. decades after it has been used constantly! The rule should always be whenever our governments & media suggest that something might happen.. it's code for its already being done!

@3YearLetterman These parody accounts are so popular

This is a very moving and reverent moment in American history. Absolutely no American president has ever loved or read the Bible as much as Trump, so he deserves this Jesus, himself a great American who literally wrote the Bible, would be honored

@matt_horncastle I agree with the first statements but the last one is a stretch. Often great leaders are those not seeking the role

I know Christopher Luxon, the Prime Minister of New Zealand, and David Seymour, the Deputy Prime Minister of New Zealand. They are decent, honest, respectable, competent people. These are the best options for leadership that we have.

@ZooNealand Do tell us what happened to European forests and American ones. Selective reporting is a great way of reinforcing bias

REMINDER: Maori burned down 30-40% New Zealand’s forests The smoke was so bad that they found traces of soot in ANTARCTICA that had travelled from New Zealand They are not ‘kaitiaki’ - they are environmental vandals

@HobsonsPledgeNZ If Hobson’s Pledge cannot recognise Freedom of speech and expression then maybe they have surrendered and imagined high ground

If the Greens and their candidates won't respect the flag, how can we expect them to respect our democracy, its parliament, and the commitment to treating everyone equally and fairly?

@NicL1904 Nope you need an air temp of less than the dew point of the exhaust. The air mass cools rapidly with altitude

Man möge es mir erklären. Luftfeuchtigkeit draußen bei 30%, in meiner Wohnung 40% (Untergrenze) trotzdem bilden sich Kondesstreifen? Ich dachte dazu bräuchte man 100% Luftfeuchtigkeit? Sagt die KI

@3YearLetterman That’s ok if you want to broadcast your ignorance.

I literally cannot name one thing that Great Britain does better than America

@HobsonsPledgeNZ Reheated left over interview scraps. You might need another stooge to get a new interview to rekindle the fear

Share this video and share all the other videos of Far North Councillor Davina Smolders blowing the whistle on co-governance. Every New Zealander needs to see what is happening and it is not just in the North.

@samfunnetsrost Temperature is the driver. Only need a fraction of a degree to make the difference just like clouds

Sist jeg postet et fly med striper i lufta fikk jeg masse forklaring - påstander om hjerneskade etc Kan de samme personene forklare denne videoen? Stopper kondenseringen her av forskjell i høyde - lufttrykk - temperatur?

@HobsonsPledgeNZ Reheating interviews when the rest of the country has made peace and moved on.

This is what it comes down to. We have to be able to vote out decision makers. SIGN THE PETITION: bit.ly/4tB7quO

@HobsonsPledgeNZ How it started. With a treaty committing to treating Maori as equal to British citizens….how it’s going years of attempting to undermine and eliminate that commitment

how it started: “just advisory roles” how it’s going: voting power over elected councillors

@BGatesIsaPyscho You have seen footage of bomber flights in WWII? Maybe Battle of Britain? Back when people had sufficient science knowledge to build a better world

Another absolutely incredible clip. The people who claim that planes have always left trails like this - can’t explain why nobody ever filmed it for 20+ years… They genuinely believe everyone just suddenly started noticing.

@ValerieAnne1970 Cite your sources otherwise they are just a poor use of correlation

Childhood Vaccines... 1962 = 5 vaccines 1983 = 10 vaccines 2013 = 32 vaccines 2019 = 72 vaccines 2025 = up to 96 vaccine doses Autism Rates 1983 = 1 in 10,000 2013 = 1 in 88 2022 = 1 in 36 2025= 1 in 31 2026 = 1 in 20 boys

@actparty Why just call out TPM. All political parties have other priorities to ACT so how about you talk policy instead of theatre from the house

We're ensuring all New Zealanders, including young Māori, can read and write. Te Pāti Māori has other priorities.

@GravityMan22 Cannot stop condensation of moisture laid exhaust or the sublimation of the resulting ice.

Worst I’ve ever seen it…. Is there no way to stop this???
