The assault on Maori continues---more reference to maori to go in forthcoming legislation. thespinoff.co.nz/atea/04-07-202…
Of course she will be OK with it...as long as they are not mixed caste like Fijian Indians.
Should the migrant of Mumbai be commenting on this?
So now we have the prospect of these bottling companies getting 35 year bottling rights to our water.....if the RSB is in place then if a future guv'mint shuts them down, they get taxpayer compensation.
Overseas investment changes will undo water bottling safeguard newsroom.co.nz/2025/07/23/ove…
First time I have seen her talk-Minister of the Environment, outside Cabinet.....when asked about nitrates and the bad water in Gore, all she said was "that the farmers do not apply fertilizer in winter"..FFS..cows still urinate and take a dump in winter...leaches into water.
Tame is interviewing the awful Tory Simmonds (who is messing up everything she touches) in front of several NZ flags... weird to see it.
Remind me of an AI story. A person told AI that they were depressed and what could they do about it? AI gave some answers ,to no avail, but finally came to a logical conclusion. AI told the person that he should kill himself.
This is bad. There’s already some “councillor’s “ out there, giving fckd up advice 😔
The Chinese have snubbed her---she is a RWinger and far too chummy with Trump.
I completely agree with China govt's decision to arrange a bus to welcome the delegation led by EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, as it's an environmentally friendly move. You know, Europeans like to be environmentally friendly.
Works for me ---Most of us like the Union but we do not like/unsure of the Jack.
How proud would you be if this were our flag and the name of our country?
When the opposition asked Hoggard about clean water in QT, he deflected by saying he was more concerned about arsenic or lead.....they are totally irresponsible!
Federated Farmers say Kiwis are 'lucky' to have 'premium' ‘grass-Fed’ butter, but neglects to mention the rainforest destruction, polluted rivers, contaminated drinking water and climate change that goes with it. #TooManyCows rnz.co.nz/news/business/…
Perhaps they should ask Penny " groundswell" Simmons about the environment, for a change...sound of crickets.
Penny Symonds on #nzqanda explaining how education must be a profitable business rather than a social investment. Or rather failing to explain because of course that's nonsense.
BVV said it was to reorientate everything to English---part of the "rollback everything Maori" campaign which is ongoing.
I repeat, Our design is unique, the wording is unique, and if the customs officer opens the passport the inside is unique,so why change anything at all, this is simply an NZ1 arrangement made to elevate their ideas and nothing else.
So how will you be able to tell if someone is qualified to be a counselor and what sort of advice will they be giving....maybe I should give it a go as I am not qualified? rnz.co.nz/news/political…
A bloody stupid idea--arriving 3 mins earlier is nothing espec. if you arrive dead/injured. rnz.co.nz/news/national/…
Would be good to see this updated in order to see if progress has been made/or not on the metrics. macrobusiness.com.au/2025/06/new-ze…
Luxon does not mention the $2 tax cut the superannuants got...
Luxon should skite when he takes NZ Superannuation up $183 per fortnight, like @nzlabour did in their last 2 Super increases. Luxon can only gloat when he adds $55 increase from measley $129 That may help superannuitants with cost of living crisis #nzpolitics #LuxonNonDelivery
Yup---my neighbours wife (from India but it could be anywhere overseas) , has done exactly this----first you get PR status here then jump the ditch....he told me over the fence that this is what they planned.
This is one of the reasons Aussies are sick of the NZ passport. Because if you can't get into Aussie the first time around, they come here, get their citizenship, and go in that way. They all deny it's deliberate. Which is bs. It's totally planned
TPM and the Greens have called it right.... BVV spelled out the real reason Internal Affairs Minister Brooke van Velden said the positioning of text on passports will change to reflect the government's commitment to using English first. rnz.co.nz/news/political…
What a pile of BS from Court. New Zealand is on the front of the passport as well...and when it get scanned guess what ---it flags up as a "New Zealand Passport".
Except that all the existing passports in stock will be issued before the new version is printed...facts matter Nick. So does making sure other countries border force can see "New Zealand Passport" instead of wondering "where is Aotearoa?"
They also do not have the intellectual depth to debate---they are driven by RW ideology.
National will never stand up to debate. They don't care about NZ or Kiwis.
So true---the RW coalition guv'mint in Aotearoa( oops New Zealand) is a prime example of this observation.
