🚨 Breaking: Canada to recognise Palestinian state at United Nations
If @winstonpeters wanted to protect women so much, why did he support the cancellation of Pay Equity Claims for hundreds of thousands of them?
It’s time we dropped the bastardised Dutch name “New Zealand” and called this country by its legitimate name: Aotearoa. #nzpol
Disheartening, but unsurprising. From disenfranchising incarcerated New Zealanders to this is a very short leap. Paul Goldsmith is a disgusting human and a shit New Zealanders.
Proud of our history as a country that led the way in electoral rights—first to allow Indigenous people to vote and first to grant women the right to vote. It's disheartening to see any minister attempting to disenfranchise voters .
BREAKING: At least 20 Israeli drones are hovering above the Handala Freedom Flotilla as it approaches Gaza. The ship is unarmed. It carries aid, not weapons. This is a peaceful humanitarian mission, and it’s under Israeli threat.
She was arrested after she & the TEENS (not children) were singing “Death To Arabs” on a plane. They were asked to stop & didn’t. Someone responded with, “Free Palestine” & the woman spit on her. Amazing how they only tell you what happened to them, but they don’t tell you why.
The woman who was arrested and beaten is the director of the Kinneret summer camp. Fifty Jewish French children, aged 10 – 15, were singing Hebrew songs on the plane. The @vueling airline crew said that Israel is a terrorist state and forced the children off the aircraft; they…
What does the race baiting Parmjeet Parmar of ACT Party think of this race-based scholarship at the University of Auckland?
"Demilitarisation of Palestine"? As Israel commits genocide in its most sadistic forms, are new conditions being quietly slipped into the defunct peace process? And still no word on justice, accountability, or reparations, without which peace is unacceptable (post-WWII history…
Fidèle à son engagement historique pour une paix juste et durable au Proche-Orient, j’ai décidé que la France reconnaîtra l’État de Palestine. J’en ferai l’annonce solennelle à l’Assemblée générale des Nations unies, au mois de septembre prochain.…
When Francesca Albanese exposed the “economy of genocide” ‘In 20mnths Tel Aviv 🇮🇱 stock exchange has grown by 213%’ ‘An increase of $220bn’ ‘For many companies, genocide=profit’ Profiteering from the murder of 20,000 🇵🇸 children The truth is disgusting
Mt Smart Stadium has been fitted with solar panels which will provide 60 % of its total power needs. Not only is this environmentally positive it also makes great economic sense. I am pushing for Titirangi War Memorial Hall to be treated the same way. aucklandstadiums.co.nz/news/go-media-…
The government's ban on Palestine Action violates international law, says the UN human rights chief. We ended up with a Labour government led by a human rights lawyer - who breaks international law in order to crush opponents of genocide. Wild. theguardian.com/politics/2025/…
2023 election took UNDER 3 weeks for full count but was DECLARED as soon as the majority was obvious, so Paul Goldsmith is blowing bubbles out of his backside. Also, it took that long due to overseas votes. 2026 will see 10 000s MORE overseas votes. Will possibly take longer.
She is talking to you @chrisluxonmp @winstonpeters
I have never felt so shaken. Children are dying of hunger. Falling one after another, like petals of a dying flower. Under our watch. How do you sleep, Presidents, Foreign Ministers, political leaders, diplomats, civil servants - doing nothing to stop Israel’s starvation…
The sheer intellectual collapse you have to experience to be faced with 122 international aid organisations telling you the same thing... ISRAEL IS STARVING GAZANS... only to decide they are ALL lying & that actually Benjamin Netanyahu, on trial for fraud, is telling the truth.

Have we seen this hatred before? Yes, directed at Jacinda Ardern. It's called "misogyny" (a dislike of, contempt for, or ingrained prejudice against women). Except for Tory, she has had to endure disgusting racist comments as well.
