@chrisluxonmp Just resign, you are an embarrassment to the country.

Attacks on fuel tankers and energy infrastructure in the Middle East are leading directly to higher fuel prices for Kiwis. That’s why we have joined the United Kingdom and other countries in condemning Iran’s attacks in the Gulf. Iran has forced the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz to ships carrying fuel and other critical goods to places like New Zealand. New Zealand has a longstanding record of working with like-minded partners to ensure open supply lines for global trade. Obviously, any future decision for New Zealand to support multilateral efforts to ensure safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz would need to be considered by Cabinet.

Do put this all over social media. Every little bit helps

The misrepresentation is inevitable because they have no shame. All these Government parties will end up doing is again reminding us how extremely fortunate we were that they were in opposition (NZ First from 2020 obviously).

@mscratchm More evidence from that ridiculously upheld review

Adam silver doesn’t want teams to tank. Utah actually try’s today and plays good, and refs tryna give Denver the game. Lmaoo fuck what Silver saying, Utah keep tanking and tell that guy to focus on his refs

@mangonui08 Says the man who jerked off on the taxpayer's dime

We need to hold responsible those who disregard the rules and obligations of belonging in our community

@MaccaNZeth @farmgeek No, you're asserting that the benefit outweighs the cost.

@maclir @farmgeek The govt do the cost benefit analysis, not me. I’m just explaining why they do it.

This might be a controversial take, but if you want a $5 million game of rugby in Auckland, maybe the people who want to go should pay for it, not taxpayers? Bung $100 onto 50,000 tickets and it’s covered. Or, if it’s all about the economic benefit, let the businesses pay.

When interviewed about the State of Origin, Christopher Luxon said that he fondly remembered his parents letting him stay up late to watch it as a kid.The first live broadcast of State of Origin in New Zealand was in 1989, when Christopher Luxon was 19

@aniobrien Could anyone be more 'look at me look at me, I'm relevant in the culture wars', than you Ani. LMAO

I’m sorry… does this come as a surprise?

National hacks are trying to re-write history As Matthew Hooton wrote last year, Labour's Cullen, under PM Clarke, made significant surpluses for 9 years & even paid down debt National's Bill English delivered seven deficits. Ardern ran surpluses until Covid hit #nzpol #kiwi

@MaccaNZeth @farmgeek Way to spectacularly miss the point. But hey lay out your cost benefit analysis

@farmgeek Well, government pays or it doesn’t happen. And when it happens the government gets GST and extra income tax from businesses. Win/Win but they do such a poor job at explaining to the general public (your post and the comments on your post being evidence of that)

“International research shows that every $1 invested in risk reduction saves at least $4 in response and recovery” We had the ideal fund for projects like this - the $4.5 billion climate emergency response fund. But this govt wasted it on tax cuts. stuff.co.nz/nz-news/360932…

@farmgeek Same in health, "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure", but hey let's support the tobacco industry.

16 year business failure high now. Today, Warehouse cut 270 jobs but last year, Smiths closed, Marbecks too & Kathmandu's 21 stores shut. Zespri cuts 135 jobs, Sealord 79. Eyes Valley Sawmill 142. 6000 jobs lost in Welly in 1 year & 18,000 constructions jobs too #nzpol #Kiwi

@JudithCollinsMP Senior government legal role, and sees no conflict of interest...a bit of self reflection and you might realize how unfit you are for the role

Mildly embarrassed that I’ve forgotten to tell my X friends that I am resigning from the New Zealand Parliament mid this year to take up a new role as President of the Law Commission in New Zealand. It’s a great role with law reform at its heart and I am absolutely thrilled. The Prime Minister has kindly asked me to stay as a Minister for a few months so, until then, I’m keeping on with my ministerial roles and my work as a constituency Member of Parliament. I’ve been an MP for 24 years and during that time have held 18 different ministerial posts. Time for a change! 😊

@NewZealandMFA Lickspittle

New Zealand recognises the leadership of the United States, in close coordination with nations from the region, on advancing peace in Gaza. We see a role for the Board of Peace in Gaza, to be carried out as mandated by UN Security Council Resolution 2803. A number of states, particularly from the region, have stepped up to contribute to the Board’s role on Gaza, and New Zealand would not add significant further value to that. As a leading founder and longstanding supporter of the United Nations, it is important that the Board’s work is complementary to and consistent with the UN Charter. It is a new body, and we need clarity on this, and on other questions relating to its scope, now and in the future. New Zealand will not be joining the Board in its current form but will continue to monitor developments. -WP

@mangonui08 just waiting for you to tell us all how fake climate change is

@NMowbray23 You're full of shit. I know people on the ground, I lived in Minnesota for years.

We have a office is in downtown Minneapolis. In broad daylight, people openly deal drugs outside. Most stores have half their product locked behind screens. Walking a few blocks feels unsafe. I’ve personally witnessed multiple incidents during short stays over the years. The pattern is always the same with the left. Cities go soft on crime, enforcement drops, consequences disappear and public spaces deteriorate. Businesses suffer, residents leave. Am glad something is being done about it. Same can be said for down town Auckland. Glad to see progress being made there.

New rule: if you’re using Nazi slogans, you can’t get upset when people call you a Nazi.

@cjsbishop The Jewish Council of Australia is backing the mass withdrawal of Ardern and others. What's your message to them, dickhead?

lol of course she did
