perpetual pandemic

A quick check of ACT candidates keeping in mind they have sanitised their social media. Matt Fisken - was labelled a "White Supremacist", "Racist", "terrorist", “Nut Job", as well "Knowingly pissing on the graves of those who were murdered by a white supremacist terrorist."

Good to see NZ media getting pushback for their terrible covid disinformation

@kristanoutagate Shane “I cancelled 70 million litres fuel storage capacity” Jones.

@Mountain_Tui Warehouse sold out of petrol cans - National is going to ruin NZ because of lack of action Go soft, Go slow

Hipkins: "If we get to a point where we have to actively ration fuel, we need to know now what that's going to look like. So who's going to have access? Who's not? The sooner people know that, the sooner they can make their own contingency plans." Also calls for PT support

@crazy_lekiwi @Eastandbays Blockitty

@Eastandbays I love how all these numpties come out and espouse wisdom about the NZ fuel supplychain. Here’s a tip. The time to get concerned is when the refineries reduce the send to little old NZ. That hasn’t happened, yet. I suggest you all calm down and take another covid booster.

Six weeks of diesel left and the government is not restricting use or setting up alerts to reduce consumption. They say there's nothing to worry about. Very casual. I beg to differ. Six weeks will fly past and diesel users will be panic buying until then.

19% more deaths from Covid in the US than counted thru 2021 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

@henrycooke I heard Willis's fuel relief plan only requires you to send the next years worth of petrol receipts along with last year's petrol receipts and the IRD will refund a % of the difference but only when they pay out tax return payments for the year in question so July 2027

The govt have got to be kidding! Facing a serious international fuel crisis, homeless crisis, highest unemployment in decades, cost of living crisis and taxpayers are funding Robbie Williams?

If you’re feeling concerned about petrol prices, you’re not alone. We know it’s tough, and the last thing any household needs right now is more pressure on the budget. While these pressures are global, New Zealand is in a stronger position to handle the impact of conflict in the Middle East than we were two years ago, because of the steps we have taken to rebuild the economy. We will continue to manage the economy responsibly and support Kiwis through this unpredictable time, delivering the steady economic management needed to minimise the impact on households.

Asia, Australia all taking moves to enable working from home as the fuel crisis crunches. Our weak government too scared to act. Pathetic @NZNationalParty

@meco78526 Yup he's such a groveller to the right wing ugh

Cooke turns off comments

@mauriceraiti She works for Casey Costello

Wow . Hipkins ex posted then deleted allegation on FB he refutes then giving everyone time to screenshot them deleted the post. Talk about a woman two years down the track scorned.

Ex wife works for big tobacco now did Henry mention that? Wish he had got upset about ACT president being a pedophile 🤦

@HobsonsPledgeNZ Yeah sure ban chiropractor funding then 🤦

Māori medicine cannot cure cancer or fight infections. Medicine and science - which all cultures and people have contributed to - are tested, challenged, and proven to work. We are not rich enough to be paying $9 million for unproven spiritual practices.

If anyone wants an amazing resource on what the govt went through at the beginning of Covid 19 @MattNippert wrote this. It’s a masterpiece from both the govt of the day and journalism. nzherald.co.nz/nz/covid-19-co…

@henrycooke Henry is such a groveller ugh So depressing to see them all kowtowing to such a dishonest government

The second Royal Commission report on Covid is out, with a lot of very tough reading for the last Govt. It suggests the Auckland lockdown went too long and against advice, the Govt did not move fast enough on RATs, and that there was advice against kids getting the vaccine

@mangonui08 Liar jones - shameful

Our fuel security situation was fatally wounded once Labour shut down Marsden Point

@chrisluxonmp “If Jacinda Ardern’s government was guilty of anything, it was of caring too much, and as we have learned in the last two years, that is a hell of a lot better than the reverse.”

Today’s report on the Covid response is a lesson in how reckless spending can derail a country.

⁦@nzherald⁩ not getting the responses they want from their delusional headline.
