@josievryer @rtaonui Jose he's just jealous. He got to the pub too late and missed the bj.

@DameKateePie What did his ancestors do. ? Mine built hospitals, schools, houses for citizens as well as roads, bridges, rail and much more.

@kaiviti_cam Why does maoridom, 6 kids bear relevance to her job. We are expected to do our roles we are paid to do. She was working for a English language news channels, with veiwers across the political spectrum. Internal politics of employers is not really the publics focus

@kiriceilidh @tukakimatt And perhaps in the future journalist learn restraint to say no when offered a gin or three in social gatherings
English

@tukakimatt ‘a booze-fuelled gathering’…! it isn’t compulsory to drink alcohol merely bcos it’s available. U drink u accept the consequences of alcohol fuelled behaviour. Why some workplaces have a no alcohol on the premises policy. It’s a good idea that NZ parliament might want to adopt.

A couple of days ago I made comments supporting Maiki Sherman — and I stand by those comments.
But now it’s time to go further because there are still legitimate questions that remain unanswered.
Firstly, Lloyd Burr now has serious questions to answer himself because there are obvious gaps emerging in what has been publicly presented and discussed.
Secondly, it was completely inappropriate for someone who was not even present at the event to release details publicly. It is increasingly clear that parts of this saga have been agenda-driven from the outset, with selective narratives pushed before all facts were known.
Thirdly, there is the conduct of the Minister of Finance. I personally believe it is entirely inappropriate for a Minister to be hosting what has been described as a booze-fuelled gathering inside a ministerial office in the first place. The public are entitled to expect better judgement and professionalism from those in positions of power.
And finally — the closure of the BSA may well have been politically driven, but to the bloggers, self-styled “journalists”, influencers and online pile-on merchants now weaponising social media:
Be careful.
New Zealand law still applies online.
Defamation laws exist.
The Harmful Digital Communications Act exists.
The Harassment Act exists.
People cannot simply publish material designed to deliberately humiliate, intimidate or cause serious emotional harm without potential consequences.
Freedom of speech does not mean freedom from accountability.
The online lynch mob culture that has emerged in this country is becoming toxic, dangerous and reckless.
Enough is enough.

@kiwiwayne4 They would both fit into Maori television well. They might be understood there but not in mainstream English news. That suits colonisers and Asians better.

@AynRandy666 Imagine if the government abolished taxable expenses for everybody. They would see very little income to pay the beneficiaries who now rely on taxed income. Do a uni degree in economics and then think about those pearls of wisdom.. Might end be able to find the missing billions.
English

Remember that $1.9 billion tax rebate for fucking landlords?
That would have given every university student in NZ free education. For their whole degree.
Think about that 🤔🙄 #nzpol

@gracefool @NZMAGAMike Contract out our prisons to Indonesia. They will do it for $5000 a year..
English

@NZMAGAMike True. But a single prisoner costs over $100,000 annually; that is a far greater misallocation of funds.
English

$2,467 A WEEK — ABOUT $128,000 A YEAR
That is the estimated taxpayer-funded support for one single mother with 13 dependent children, before any extra hardship, disability, childcare, food, school, emergency housing, or one-off assistance.
Core estimate:
• Sole Parent Support: $521.52
• Family Tax Credit: $152 for eldest child
• Family Tax Credit: 12 x $124 = $1,488
• Accommodation Supplement: up to $305
Total:
$521.52 + $152 + $1,488 + $305 = $2,466.52 per week
That is about $128,000 per year.
Punchline:
At 13 children, the welfare system is no longer a safety net.
It is a full-time taxpayer-funded income.

@aniobrien Sherman failed to gain the trust of her audience. Chasing people with a microphone in her hand thinking she was the leader of the wolf pack.. Breaking parliament rules by banging on doors at night.. Then look at her reporting. Biased to say the least. Any more..?
English

Make sure you read what I actually said before you tell me I should kill myself or paint a target on me as “far right”. You people are fucking deranged. open.substack.com/pub/aniobrien/…

@MaikiSherman Your character didnt fit the role. You went after the person. That has now played our in reverse. Moving forward you have the chance to reveiw your approach and rebalance
English

@the_salty_one_ @crfu So it's okay to wear kaffirs and display Palestinian flags.. They both agitate me but I'm told to get over it.

@AntiWokeMemes What a bunch of pussy's. I didn't see any blood and guts.

@TrumpsHurricane Why would a couple of tongue and groovers need birth control?

@AucklandIsland Interiskander is an employment agency for the seaman union. What is going to be capable of operating these ships if the current crowd can't operate the autopilot. Bluebridge should be given the new ferries to operate so they are in safe hands.
English

I'm amazed at the lack of criticism by media towards Nicola Willis who single handedly cancelled our new interisland ferries. Every time the old ones break down she's directly responsible for any casualties and stress to passengers.
Gobsmacking fail.
