It’s time to leave Golriz alone. Stop the politicking, demeaning, and slander of past politicians. It’s disgraceful and undermines what politics is about and what politics should be about in our country. The fact that media are stooping so low for headlines and click bait is an embarrassment to not only the media’s role but our role as politicians.

This social media post from @nzherald sums up perfectly why the mainstream media (the Media Party) are losing their influence, trust and legitimacy. They are so threatened by allowing the online community to fact check and keep each other accountable (which works so well on X) rather than their radically left wing so-called “fact checkers”, and losing the ability to label anything they disagree with as “disinformation and misinformation”… .. that they close the comments section to even discuss the issue. 🙄 They are hastening their own demise.

@philipreeve1 hello Philip Reeve! I stumbled across Fever Crumb when my 8 year old boy bought home the book from school but found it a bit tricky to read by himself. Now I’m reading A Web of Air! I haven’t enjoyed a book in this genre - whatever this genre is! - 4 a long time!

With all the issues that Tauranga Council could be focusing on, they've decided that your sexuality and gender 'identity' is the defining one for ratepayers to be concerned about at the moment. (Think about that for a moment as you tackle the traffic mayhem around the city and note the shops for lease in Devonport Rd). According to Official Information Act documents obtained by @familyfirstnz, here's the "feedback" the council got from businesses. * Council staff visited approx 67 businesses and asked for feedback. 32 businesses were “in support” (𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐟!), 17 businesses were “ambivalent” (𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲), 6 businesses were “opposed” (𝐠𝐨𝐨𝐝), and 12 businesses had no specific feedback (𝐰𝐡𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐥 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐫𝐮𝐛𝐛𝐢𝐬𝐡!) * Council staff talked to 𝐰𝐡𝐨𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐭, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐥𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝/𝐨𝐫 𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐝. 🙄 * an email was sent to 42 businesses. A hard-copy newsletter containing the same text was distributed to city centre businesses at about the same time. 𝐍𝐨 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤 about the rainbow crossing was received as a direct result of sending this message. * in a stunning and indepth piece of consultancy by the council, "𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐥 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐟𝐟 𝐦𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐰𝐨 𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 from business owners on an ad hoc basis from recent discussions on other topics. Both business owners felt that the crossing increased the fun and vibrancy in the city centre and that we are “one community”. * A petition with 2781 signatures opposing the $10,000 cost of the crossing was ignored by the councillors - who seem to be more concerned with virtue-signalling and wokeness. But according to the @nzherald the crossing has MASSIVE support. 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑐𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑐𝑖𝑙 𝑠ℎ𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑑 𝑝ℎ𝑜𝑡𝑜𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑐𝑟𝑜𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑖𝑛 𝑎𝑛 𝐼𝑛𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑔𝑟𝑎𝑚 𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑡 𝑜𝑛 𝑊𝑒𝑑𝑛𝑒𝑠𝑑𝑎𝑦.

Impressive. Unfortunately, Devonport Rd businesses are more interested in surviving than virtue-signalling their sexuality, gender & diversity - AS WE ALL ARE! #WOKEUP

🔴 𝗧𝗨𝗘𝗦𝗗𝗔𝗬 𝗣𝗮𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗣𝗼𝗱𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁! | Yesterday two major incidents happened in Western politics - Joe Biden pardoned his own son for serious criminal offending, and NZ Prime Minister Christopher Luxon pledged that NZ would arrest Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu if he ever came here. In this podcast I discuss these incidents, and the crisis of credibility that both highlight in the current state of western politics. 🔥 𝗟𝗜𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗡 𝗧𝗢 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗙𝗨𝗟𝗟 𝗘𝗣𝗜𝗦𝗢𝗗𝗘 𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗛 𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗙𝗥𝗘𝗘 𝗢𝗡𝗘 𝗪𝗘𝗘𝗞 𝗧𝗥𝗜𝗔𝗟 𝗠𝗘𝗠𝗕𝗘𝗥𝗦𝗛𝗜𝗣, by paying $6 for this episode, or by becoming a $5 monthly Patron at patreon.com/LeftFootMedia

🚩🚩Wow!!! The excellent news site @centrist_nz has exposed how when the @nzherald is unhappy with the way comments are going on an issue… they reissue the story & delete every comment! Shocking - but no surprise. You can have an opinion - but only if the NZ Herald agrees.

Remember this quote? How did it make you feel?

I am told by some that today is the day the deep state murdered JFK 61 years ago. What do you think?

This is a first for an @AngelStudiosInc film. ALL the top critics (so far) are giving @bonhoeffer2024 FRESH.

The excess government spending is what causes inflation! ALL government spending is taxation. This is a very important concept to appreciate. It is either direct taxation, like income tax, or indirect via inflation due to increasing the money supply.

I'm German. 16 years ago, the EU and US economies were neck and neck. Today, the US economy is 50% larger than the entire EU combined. Here's the devastating truth behind Europe's ongoing economic suicide 🧵:

Taxpayers shell out millions every election cycle to fund political parties' election ads on radio and TV. It's a rort and it needs to stop.
