A number of people have recently been asking what we mean when we say ‘woke’. Very good question. Definition of ‘woke’: Adjective: 1. A state of awareness only achieved by politically correct fascists who are dumb enough to find injustice in everything other than their own behaviour and believe they have the right to harass and lecture others about how they should think. 2. Any out-of-touch pearl-clutching virtue signaller who cannot define what a ‘woman’ is. That is what we mean by ‘woke’.

When we treat people based on group identity rather than individual needs, we create division and overlook real solutions. The partnership interpretation of the Treaty has pushed us in this direction, making it much harder to tackle the real challenges facing New Zealand.

A bad housing market and a woke education system combined are a production line for left-wing voters. The hard left prey on young New Zealanders. They tell them that their problems are caused by others’ success. That they are held back by their identity, but if they embrace identity politics, they can take back what’s theirs. Their mechanism is a new tax on wealth. These are the opposite of the spirit brings New Zealanders to our shores in the first place. The state of our nation is that we’re at a tipping point , and what we do in the next few years will decide which way we go.

@MarkMitchellMP Can we rephrase your sentence to include the word ALL “They will continue to proactively target ALL people who break the law.”

Police have done a very good job in Rotorua with Operation Trolley. They will continue to proactively target people who break the law. People and businesses should be free to go about their days without intimidation, theft and antisocial behaviour in our CBDs.

𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗺𝗻 𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗳𝘂𝗹 ‘𝗵𝗼𝘁𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲’ 𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝘀𝗿𝗮𝗲𝗹𝗶 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀 Responding to the Palestinian Solidarity Network’s ‘hotline’ for reporting Israeli soldiers holidaying in New Zealand, @SimonCourtACT says: “John Minto and his followers, in their pursuit of Israeli tourists, would create a real-life version of the Hunger Games movies. Their undisguised antisemitic behaviour is not acceptable in a liberal democracy like New Zealand. “Military service is compulsory for Israeli citizens. This means any Israeli holidaying, visiting family, or doing business in New Zealand could be targeted by John Minto’s hateful campaign. “This is not normal political activism, it is intimidation targeted toward Jewish visitors. It mirrors the worst instincts of humanity and should be condemned by parties across Parliament.”

The Government will ensure your council is focused on the basics delivering essential services and core infrastructure. We will also ensure they are spending responsibly and operating under greater scrutiny.

𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗧𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗔𝗰𝘁 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 “Today’s changes are great news for renters and landlords,” says ACT Housing spokesperson Cameron Luxton in response to the passing of the Residential Tenancies Amendment Bill, which advances ACT coalition commitments. “ACT’s longstanding position has been that Labour’s restrictive tenancy rules hurt both tenant and landlord. They made it harder to get rid of problem tenants, which put landlords off taking a chance on people in need of a home. Everyone lost. “Today’s changes will bring much-needed flexibility to the rental market to restore confidence to landlords and tenants. “Ninety-day no-cause tenancy terminations are back, restoring an essential property right removed by Labour which hurt renters and property owners. In certain situations, like a family member needing to move in or a property selling, the notice period can shorten to 42 days. “Pet bonds are here, an ACT policy celebrated across the political spectrum. Tenants will soon be able to pay a bond to keep their pets in rental properties. Pet Refuge has endorsed the policy saying it will help victims of abuse escape these relationships. “Tenants wanting to exit periodic tenancies can now do so with only 21 days’ notice, down from 28 days. This gives tenants the freedom to more rapidly adjust to their changing life circumstances. “Landlords were scapegoated and blamed by Labour for the housing crisis when the real cause is a lack of housing supply. “Policies introduced to ‘protect’ tenants have ended up hurting them with higher rents. Real solutions for renters don’t involve pitting tenants against landlords but making it easier to build houses to bring rents down and give tenants more choice. "ACT is ending Labour’s war on landlords."

The consultant gravy train is well and truly over. New data shows the public service is on track to save more than DOUBLE the Government’s initial target on contractors and consultants.

BREAKING: The Government is fixing the Marsden Fund. The fund will now focus on core scientific research. Here’s how the fund was spending taxpayer money previously: - $853,000 to investigate relationships between Māori and taxation, aiming to propose new, Te Tiriti-aligned tax systems. - $757,000 to imagine 'honourable kāwanatanga' in preparation for a decolonised nation and a Tiriti-based future. - $360,000 to assess the rhetorics of civic deliberation in true crime podcasting. - $861,000 for research on linking the celestial spheres to end-of-life experiences.

@pungaohiko All languages make up words, that's how languages grow and evolve. For example you wouldn't have used the word woke like this 20 years ago. Before the car was invented there was no English word for it either. The French, Germans, and Chinese all came up with a word for car too.

Why must we accept that words like “motoka”, “kirikiti” and “kirihimete” etc are part of the Māori language? They’re just made up words, part of an artificial language used for ideological and political purposes. They are more closely connected to woke liberals than to Māori.

@TheNzRocketeer And if someone who is Māori and on the Māori roll is not allowed to vote for or against any candidate standing in a non-Māori electorate, no matter how much they agree or disagree with their policies.

@nzfirst Isn't it great how people consider ideas, change views, look for better ways to do things, consider other options rather than always doing something the way it's always been done because that's the way it's always been done. It's called growth
