The new host of @radionz Morning Report is... John Campbell.
He was asked whether he would be less left wing, less bias, less woke, less anti current Government...
"The kind of people who are saying that... we need to ask why they're saying it, what their agendas are, who they are..."
"Not everyone we talk to has got a degree from Victoria University like I have..." 🤨
"We often talk about objectivity but actually what we're really talking about is representation and representation is inclusion..."
Remember - this is the guy who wrote a column after the last election where he referred to a photo of Christopher Luxon, Winston Peters and David Seymour as they met to thrash out the new coalition agreement. “It was art imitating life,” wrote Campbell. “Everything in that photo is empty. The room. The walls. The table. The glasses [which are still upturned because Winston hasn’t yet given Chris and David permission to use them]. And the men, too, as it turned out. Empty of ideas.”
Stunning choice, @radionz 🙄

I started doing cocaine about 7 or 8 months ago. It started off at festivals with my friends or nightclubs, but I’m now doing it daily for the past 3 weeks or so.
I knew from the second I used cocaine that it was my drug of choice. I smoke weed daily, I’ve used MDMA, ketamine, 4MMC and a few others, but none ever clicked with me the same way cocaine did.
I work full time and have a good relationship with my family and friends, and I don’t know where this addiction has come from. When I’m not high I don’t crave it, but the second I do a little line or bump, I can’t stop. I’m doing about a gram daily, sometimes more, sometimes less.
It’s not really affecting my life too much—I still go to work, I still see my friends and my family, and no one knows about my addiction. My biggest problem is nighttime, where I can’t put down the bag. I work a manual labour job with an early start, so it’s not at all sustainable to be taking cocaine late at night.
It’s currently 3am as I’m writing this, and I’m up for work in about 2 hours.
I feel like I’m losing control of my life, but at the same time I feel happy throughout the day when I’m not using—but also empty. I don’t even know how to explain it. It’s like one minute I’m inside my head thinking about how much I hate this drug, what it’s doing to me, and how much I want to stop. Then the next minute I’m happy, joking around, full of energy. Then I switch up again and start thinking about railing a fat line when I get home.
I don’t know what to do, how to break this addiction, or how to feel about it. I don’t know how to stop justifying it and telling myself every night that it’s my last time, and then going straight back to it the next day.
I’m using about a quarter ounce a week, and if I go out to party on the weekend, I’ll easily go through a 3.5 throughout the night.
I don’t know what to do. It’s fucking me up, and I’m just stuck in this vicious cycle with no way out.
RECORD SCRATCH: Justin Bieber's return to the stage after a years-long hiatus sparked backlash from fans after his $10M performance at Coachella fell flat.
The 32-year-old singer was heavily criticized online for playing YouTube videos of his iconic hit songs during the set, while he sang along.
"Zero effort, just pure laziness," one X user wrote.
I'm crying this might actually be the worst performance i’ve ever seen. He’s literally just playing music videos from youtube… zero effort, just pure laziness. #coachella

It’s hard to believe so many people still seem so oblivious about what we’re really watching here.
It’s not confusing at all. I’m sure it was one of our military strategies from the beginning. It will cause the rest of the world to pressure Iran to abandon their work on nuclear weapons and open the Strait. It’s an effort to get these other countries to do what they should have done weeks ago.
I’m confused
If Trump now blockades Strait of Hormuz that will mean LESS oil and gas on global market which means WORSE global economic crisis
What am I missing?
"Effective immediately, the United States Navy, the Finest in the World, will begin the process of BLOCKADING any and all Ships trying to enter, or leave, the Strait of Hormuz." - President Donald J. Trump
I am genuinely struggling to understand this logic.
If the rest of the world is willing to pay a small toll to Iran to keep oil flowing and stabilise markets, then why does the U.S. feel the need to block all shipping, especially when it is not dependent on that oil?
JUST IN - Trump orders the U.S. Navy to blockade the Strait of Hormuz to "any and all ships trying to enter, or leave." Also instructing the U.S. Navy to seek and interdict every vessel in international waters that has paid a toll to Iran: "No one who pays an illegal toll will have safe passage on the high seas."
I found $23,000 in cash taped under my landlord’s broken washing machine.
He died last week.
Now his daughter is clearing out the building, telling everyone to make sure everything is “disposed of properly.” She has no idea it exists.
No note. No explanation. Just money… hidden like it was never meant to be found.
And now I’m stuck with a question no one prepares you for:
What do you do with something that technically isn’t yours… but no one else even knows is missing?
Trump is playing a 6-D chess with Iran.
The US has enough oil and with Venezuela's oil, they now have enough to sell.
The Strait of Hormuz is the only route where potential US buyers get oil.
And Trump already advised countries to buy oil from the US if they can't open the Strait themselves.
Now, Iran is thinking that closing the Strait of Hormuz is a big win over the US.
Meanwhile, a closed Strait of Hormuz means extra oil buyers for the US.
No matter how you spin it, Trump still has all the cards in his back pocket.
@nicksortor@AsouthernKaren So basically… Trump had a plan this entire time to close up the Strait of Hormuz so global oil exports would shift to the USA?
Make America Great Again! 🇺🇸
🚨 JUST IN: President Trump is touting the fact that DOZENS of empty SUPERTANKER ships are en route to the United States to export OUR oil, as Iran keeps the Strait closed
American oil is in SUPER high demand around the world now.
“Boats are sailing up and heading out to our country! Big, beautiful tankers, and we're loading them up with oil and gas and everything else. It's a pretty beautiful thing to see!”
