@MaximusNortius I heard the same thing from your mum Must be true

Pssst! I just read on fb that the ACT chief of staff (Lynch’s husband) was caught by security staff shagging Ms Willis in her office and eventually had to resign. Does anyone know if this is true?

@SeanPlunket @Pete20221

Deep and fundamental Constitutional reform is the only way forward for NZ. I doubt it will occur in my lifetime but we must have a democracy based on equality before the law. A contentious, expedient treaty creating a colony without conquest should not be our nation’s founding document.

@LuxonNotMyGovt They won’t But fuck me I wish they would.

A second term national led government will Privatise our Health Education Water Asset sales Kiwibank All city council assets Air nz Power companies Conservation land Maori assets More tolls More user pays More fees Judith collins from the law commission will make it legal

“Te Arikinui told King Charles about the disappointment felt by some and that our government is not upholding the Treaty's intent. I thought it was courageous and right that she did so, conveying to our Head of State that our government is failing to meet its obligations.” Open⬇️

@paulabearthe2nd Or goes all Michael Foote on a beach

Cue Andy Burnham -riding a bike -visiting a school -going the pub (obvs) - sleeves up in Factory -talking more Mancunian -wearing ‘working class stuff’ -watching the footy What’s on your Andy Burnham bingo card?

@paulabearthe2nd Or Starmers a punching bag

@paulabearthe2nd I hope he Milibands a sausage

Given the Waitangi Tribunal political overreach in trying to stop needed school curriculum changes today, well overdue. Although like BSA, disband the Tribunal: it's function is finished.

'Major breach': Tribunal says education Treaty overhaul 'may be worse' than #TPB: The Waitangi Tribunal says #NZ Govt breached #TeTiriti principles by pursuing #education law changes without meaningful #Mãori consultation, urging a halt to reforms. #nzpol teaonews.co.nz/2026/05/15/maj…

"I was just quoting some abuse against Māori women that came up during an inquiry about racism, but I did not intend to seem racist."

Shocking racism from the Luxon led National, NZFirst, Act government. It should be repealed/reversed under the next Labour-led government. nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/go…

@Keir_Starmer But yet a DPP you did nothing about rape gangs and as PM you are as much use as a cock flavoured lollipop dealing with the ongoing invasion via southern beaches. Soup fork levels of useless

I’ll always champion peaceful protest. But the Unite the Kingdom march organisers are peddling hatred and division. We’ve already blocked visas for far-right agitators who want to come here to spew their extremist views. They don't speak for the decent, fair, respectful Britain I know.

@kaiviti_cam @Media58Bias He is in great form. How is the Hawkes bay soggy biscuit club?

@barnsleybill @Media58Bias How's your bar mate Fisher

Tamatha Paul wants more protection for female MPs from hate speech. This is the same person who wants to defund the Police. How does that work exactly? stuff.co.nz/politics/36097… #NZPol

@ZackPolanski You utter melt. He needs to secure the borders and remove people with no right to be here. But you keep splitting the deluded left vote.

The next Labour leader must move decisively away from the status quo to beat Reform. That means giving power and wealth to working class people. It means a democratic revolution, rent controls and public ownership of water. It means someone who isn't Wes Streeting.

@EthanLevins2 Milk of the poppy?

Trump has never had alcohol in his life. China gave him a beverage to toast, and Trump drank it. This is a very subtle, but STRONG statement on who’s really in charge. x.com/MAGAVoice/stat…

@Jacob_P_Gould Because they (with some justification) think most kiwis are thick as mince and can’t remember where they left their keys let alone an incredibly racist episode by one of their own.

lmaoooo How did I not realize that Phil Twyford was Labour's immigration spokesperson. How do you have the guy who did the Chinese sounding names list back in that position again.

@ArtoriusNZ @Tiare_MP My vote is for Paul Henry

@Tiare_MP I fundamentally dont support any hereditary monarch being a head of state, but if we have to have a monarch then yeah it should probably at least be one who's actually from this country.

I think the Māori Queen should be our head of state

@Tiare_MP Who paid for her and the gang to live it up in London? And nice to see Tuku still likes to dress like a pimp

@labourlewis Cool story.. It is about the not so silent invasion by people who shouldn’t be in the UK. You clowns need to stop screaming far right and wake up to why the working classes hate you.

I know the news Andy Burnham has a route back to Westminster will divide opinion. So, before anything else, I want to speak plainly – to Labour members and voters, to those who have left us, and to anyone on the centre-left, whether you vote Green, Lib Dem, or are simply looking for a politics that hasn't given up on you. Last week's local election results were, for many of us, existential. Not disappointing. Not a setback. Existential. Look across Europe and beyond at what happens to social democratic parties that refuse to step outside the economic orthodoxy of the last forty years – the one that hollowed out our public services, privatised what was ours, drove inequality to indecent levels, and cleared the ground for the authoritarian right to march into. That is the path we are on. Keir Starmer has refused to see it, and the country cannot afford another general election spent finding out the hard way. So let me be direct. The Prime Minister should set out a timeline for an orderly transition. I have said this before. I say it again now because the stakes have changed. Reform is not a protest – it is a project. And it will not be beaten by a Labour Party that mistakes managerial caution for strategy. As regards Andy, I want to set down here that I do not see him as some kind of messiah. Far from it. As someone who has been around frontline politics for more than twenty years, he has made his fair share of mistakes. But for the last ten years he has been a serious, grounded, and effective Mayor of Greater Manchester. The party and the country need their strongest players on the pitch, and he has a great deal to offer at a moment when the national stage has rarely mattered more. I hope the NEC will listen to the overwhelming view of the Cabinet, the PLP, the membership, and the unions, and let Andy stand. And I hope and believe the people of Makerfield will send him back to Parliament. But that is not a given. We know Reform will throw everything at this by-election. We must do the same and then some. Reform have spent a year being told they are inevitable. Makerfield is where we find out whether that is true. Every advance has a limit. This is where we set it. Millions of people, including my constituents in Norwich South, need this government to succeed. They need housing, working public services, secure jobs, water and energy that serves them rather than extracts from them. That work is not finished. But the honest truth is that stopping Reform and rebuilding the country is bigger than any one party. It will take a progressive politics willing to listen, willing to cooperate where the public interest demands it, and willing to drop the tribal habits that got us here. The country is ahead of us on this. It is time we caught up. Makerfield is one of many places where Labour has lost trust. It is an area Andy knows and has lived in for many years. If selected, he will work hard to win that trust back and make the case for a Labour Party worth voting for again. That case has to be made not only to people who once voted Labour, but to everyone who believes the answer to Reform is a serious, democratic, social alternative – not a paler imitation of the politics that created the problem. This by-election is not about one seat. It is a test of whether Labour understands the moment we are in. No single party is going to stop Reform on its own. The progressive majority in this country is real – but it is scattered across Labour, the Greens, the Lib Dems, nationalists, independents, and millions of people who have stopped voting altogether. Our job is not to demand they all come back to us. It is to earn the right to work with them, on shared ground, for a shared future. To former Labour voters: come and talk to us again. To Green and Lib Dem voters: we are not enemies. To Labour members and MPs: this is the fight. Let's get on with it. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

@AynRandy666 Conveniently skipping past Dover Samuels.. But yes.. Right up there as the biggest gravy sucking figjam we have seen

I've been around for a fair few NZ govts now, and have seen some pretty shocking MPs come & go. But no-one as obnoxious, crude, arrogant & just sheer cunty as Mr Matua Masturbation here. #nzpol Shane Jones doubles down as iwi calls for apology rnz.co.nz/news/political…
