Meet the Greens’ candidate for Mangere:
He celebrated the killing of Charlie Kirk.
He calls police ‘c*nts’ and ‘pigs’.
He’s called David Seymour a ‘piece of sh*t’.

@Fair_and_Biased She looks amazing. I truly dislike those lopsided hats on Camilla though. I find them weird to look at on her, I am not sure why, is it because her hair sort of pokes out?

We have a literal model in the White House and the fashion magazines are allergic to her bc they hate her husband.

Melania Trump is in a league of her own when it comes to fashion and class. No wonder the left hates her so much. No one could even come close.

Dear Jimmy Kimmel, listen to me very closely.
I’m a comedian. I’ve made fun of Jill Biden. I’ve made fun of Michelle Obama. I’ve roasted First Ladies before.
But I have never in my life joked about Jill Biden becoming a widow or Michelle Obama becoming a widow.
I’ve never joked about Joe Biden or Barack Obama having an attempt made on their life. I’ve never laughed at the thought of their wives standing there in fear, wondering if their husbands are going to make it home alive.
Because that is not comedy.
That is sick.
You could have joked about Melania being married to Trump. You could have joked about politics. You could have even gone after her accent like liberals usually do.
But no — you chose to joke about Melania Trump becoming a widow.
And let’s be honest, Jimmy: when you hate Donald Trump as much as you do, that doesn’t sound like a joke.
It sounds like how you really feel.
They always say there is truth in comedy.

Wise words for today:
When one door closes and another door opens, you are probably in prison.
2. To me, "drink responsibly" means don't spill it.
3. Age 60 might be the new 40, but 9:00 pm is the new midnight.
4. It's the start of a brand new day, and I'm off like a herd of turtles.
5. The older I get, the earlier it gets late.
6. When I say, "The other day," I could be referring to any time between yesterday and 15 years ago.
7. I remember being able to get up without making sound effects.
8. I had my patience tested. I'm negative.
9. Remember, if you lose a sock in the dryer, it comes back as a Tupperware lid that doesn't fit any of your containers.
10. If you're sitting in public and a stranger takes the seat next to you, just stare straight ahead and say, "Did you bring the money?"
11. When you ask me what I am doing today, and I say "nothing," it does not mean I am free. It means I am doing nothing.
12. I finally got eight hours of sleep. It took me three days, but whatever.
13. I run like the winded.
14. I hate when a couple argues in public, and I missed the beginning and don't know whose side I'm on.
15. When someone asks what I did over the weekend, I squint and ask, "Why, what did you hear?"
16. When you do squats, are your knees supposed to sound like a goat chewing on an aluminum can stuffed with celery?
17. I don't mean to interrupt people. I just randomly remember things and get really excited.
18. When I ask for directions, please don't use words like "east."
19. Don't bother walking a mile in my shoes. That would be boring. Spend 30 seconds in my head. That'll freak you right out.
20. Sometimes, someone unexpected comes into your life out of nowhere, makes your heart race, and changes you forever. We call those people cops.
21. My luck is like a bald guy who just won a comb.

🚨 Fake Doctor in Auckland Hospital Exposes Massive Risk to New Zealand
For six months, Yuvaraj Krishnan treated patients at Middlemore Hospital using completely forged medical qualifications. He wasn’t caught by background checks — he was recognised by a colleague who knew him from years earlier, when he had already posed as a fake medical student at the University of Auckland.
This wasn’t a one-off. Sophisticated document fraud networks in India are mass-producing fake degrees, transcripts, and professional certificates for jobs and student visas abroad. From massive fake degree scandals involving tens of thousands of bogus qualifications, to migration agents specialising in forged documents — the problem is global and growing.
Now, with New Zealand’s new India FTA removing caps on Indian students and fast-tracking skilled workers, the risks are about to skyrocket. How many more unqualified “doctors”, nurses, and professionals are already here — and how many more are coming?
Read the full article exposing how weak verification systems, organised fraud, and open-door policies are creating a serious threat to patient safety and trust in New Zealand’s immigration system.

Chris Hipkins had a major Freudian slip this morning.
Asked when Labour would be releasing some new policies, he replied they’d be doing it after the election.

SHE TOLD THEM CHILDREN WERE BEING RAPED. THEY CALLED HER "EMOTIONAL."
Maggie Oliver (@MaggieOliverUK) spent years as a detective constable with Greater Manchester Police @gmpolice building evidence that the Rochdale grooming scandal went far beyond the nine men convicted in 2012. Hundreds of perpetrators. Countless victims. She had names, she had evidence, she had traumatised girls who finally trusted someone.
Her bosses dismissed her as an "emotional woman" and closed the investigations down.
One senior officer reportedly told her the victims "should have just been drowned at birth."
She resigned in 2012 rather than keep quiet. At the time she faced the real possibility of prosecution under the Official Secrets Act for speaking out. She did it anyway.
Her evidence became the @BBC drama Three Girls in 2017. It drove the Operation Augusta review. It kept this story alive when every institution with responsibility for these children had already decided to look the other way.
In January 2024, an independent review finally confirmed what she had been saying for nearly 20 years.
The review identified 96 men still considered a potential risk to children and noted that was only a fraction of those involved. GMP and Rochdale Council had told the public the 2012 convictions had resolved the problem. The review said they had barely scratched the surface.
Nearly two decades of children's lives. Hundreds of perpetrators who walked free. An institution that knew and chose cost savings over kids.
One woman who refused to pretend otherwise.
The system didn't protect those girls. Maggie Oliver did.

Has anyone read, seen or heard anything from the Rainbow Community condemning @MaikiSherman and TVNZ for her homophobic slur against a gay man ?
Will TVNZ get their Rainbow award revoked ?
Any condemnation from @NZGreens ?
English
@BlaseWager Yet none of the MSM based in Wellington reported on one of their own using homophobic slurs to a colleague. Effing hypocrisy.
English
@sandysummer353 It’s a hideous situation, they are also proud that they are the alphabet capital to boot.

Can anyone even remember what Israel Falou said? They are so outraged so I'm guessing it was really bad, waaay worse than Maiki screeching 'faggot'?

Here is:
Saudi Prince Mohammed bin Salman confirms that Barack Obama is the world’s number one sponsor of terror.
He gave Iran $150B in cash, and the IRGC didn’t even build a single street with that money.
Instead, Iran used the money to make missiles and drones, finance proxies, and arm terror organizations like Hamas, Ansar Allah, and Hezbollah. With these funds, Iran offers safe harbor to the leaders of al-Qaeda, including one of Osama bin Laden’s sons who was indoctrinated into jihadism.
———
Barack Obama was responsible for the Arab Spring in 2010—which deliberately created ISIS—toppling the Libyan government in 2011 and creating a nuclear Iran. The Obama syndicate, including his chief of staff John Brennan, Hillary Clinton, Valerie Jarrett, Victoria Nuland, Susan Rice, and Samantha Power, did so deliberately in order to keep the region destabilized and to use Iran as a buffer to prevent the Gulf states and Israel from amassing too much power. Now President Trump is undoing everything Barack Obama touched, foreign and domestic.
One man has managed to do all of that while orchestrating the single largest conspiracy in U.S. history to overthrow the United States government—and not a single investigation.

Eduardo was sheared in May.
He stood, as he stands every May, with the patience of a camelid who has done this nine times. He hummed once. The glossary lists it as "acknowledgement of necessary inconvenience." He did not move. He did not flinch.
His fleece weighed three point eight kilograms. The fibre measured 22 microns. Sheep's wool from a typical British breed sits between 28 and 36.
Eduardo's wool is finer than cashmere. No lanolin, so no chemical scouring. Hollow-cored, so it traps more warmth per gram than the wool of any sheep on this island. It does not pill. It does not itch. It sheds water in a way that synthetic fibre engineers have spent forty years trying, and failing, to replicate.
The vegan alternative is acrylic.
Acrylic is petroleum. Polyacrylonitrile, derived from crude oil, polymerised in a chemical plant using a hydrogen cyanide catalyst, dyed in processes that have, on more than one occasion, made the news.
An acrylic jumper sheds approximately 730,000 microplastic fibres per wash. Into the rivers, the seas, the food chain, the placentas of unborn children, the lungs of the rest of us.
Eduardo's jumper sheds nothing. At the end of its life, it goes back to the soil. The acrylic jumper goes to landfill for two thousand years.
Now. The suffering question.
Eduardo was, for eleven minutes, mildly inconvenienced. He stood still. He tolerated the sound of clippers he has heard nine times before. He was handled by a shearer whose hands he recognises by smell.
Afterwards, he was lighter, cooler, and visibly relieved. He hummed twice in the register the glossary lists as "satisfaction with current arrangement," walked to the geometric centre of the field, and kushed.
If he had not been sheared, the fleece would have grown through summer and caused him to overheat. By autumn it would have felted against his skin, harbouring parasites.
The shearing is not the suffering.
The shearing is the relief.
The fleece is in Powys. Eduardo is humming. The summer is properly underway.

In 1981, President Ronald Reagan was shot and nearly killed, by a lunatic who wanted to impress Jodie Foster.
Reagan famously quipped to the doctors in the emergency room, “I hope you are all Republicans.”
Dr. Joseph Giordano, the head of the trauma team, responded “We’re all Republicans today, Mr. President.”
Dr. Giordano’s comment captured the mood of the country at the time. No decent person wanted to see our president assassinated.
If this happened today, Dr. Giordano would be derided and condemned by the lunatic Left. They might even call to revoke his medical license, for “hate speech.”
BlueSky would be lit up with people bemoaning that the shooter’s aim wasn’t better.
A large swath of people would declare Reagan staged the whole thing, to boost his then sagging popularity.
Any of this 2026 behavior in 1981 would have been correctly viewed as deranged.
Today, it’s still deranged imho, but also viewed as acceptable by at least a third of the country.
How did we fall so far?

Wellington City Council is the worst run council in New Zealand.
It is not close. And every dollar they spend was taken from you by force. They do not sell anything. They do not compete. They send a bill, and if you refuse to pay, the state takes your house.
So how is the monopoly performing.
Annual revenue. Around 800 million dollars. Debt. Roughly 2.5 billion dollars. S&P reports tax supported debt is 298 percent of revenue and forecasts 376 percent by 2028. Among the highest of any local government in the developed world.
In 2024 rates went up 16.4 percent. Plus a 1.6 percent sludge levy. The next year, another 12 percent. Compound that. Wellington ratepayers are paying roughly 30 percent more than two years ago. Wages did not rise 30 percent. Inflation did not rise 30 percent. The rates did.
Where did the money go.
Not to the pipes. More than 40 percent of Wellington's water leaks out before it reaches a household. Imagine a business that loses nearly half its product on the way to the customer and demands more money every year.
Not to the sewage system. Moa Point recently leaked 70 million litres of untreated sewage a day into the harbour.
It went to the Town Hall. Original estimate 43 million. Final cost 329 million. One building. Nearly half the council's annual revenue. While the pipes rotted underground.
It went to a 180 million dollar convention centre. A 180 million dollar library. 226 million on bike lanes. 32 million buying a private cinema's building so the cinema could keep the cash.
It went to people. The wage bill went from 107 million in 2020 to 151 million in 2024. Staff paid over 200,000 dollars a year doubled. The CEO earns more than the Prime Minister. To run a city of 210,000.
It went to consultants. They paid Deloitte 435,000 dollars to advise on a restructure that resulted in one net job lost.
This is what happens when you give a bureaucracy a monopoly backed by force. There is no consumer. There is no competition. The customer cannot leave. The dollar follows ideology, vanity, and the next pet project.
If this was a business, the directors would be in jail.
Wellington is the system working exactly as designed.
This needs to be completely dismantled and start again.
