I've been active in politics all of my life. There was a time (when FB was cool?) during US elections when I'd comment on my page in real time during debates. Having moved to Aotearoa, my political interests have not diminished & now I get to vote AND run as a Green candidate for Selwyn! #nzpol

I actually can't believe that Luxon said "cry me a river" in response to cost of living crisis. Until I look it up on Hansard. Yep Luxon actually said it. Talk about being out of touch with reality. #nzpol
Hansard 15 September 2026 Oral Questions #2:

Rt Hon Chris Hipkins: When real wages have fallen, power prices have gone up, insurance prices have gone up, rates have gone up, insurance has gone up—all by more than 20 percent, under his leadership, in just the last two years—will he now admit that the cost of living crisis is not only not over; it’s getting worse under his leadership?

Rt Hon CHRISTOPHER LUXON: What I’d say, again—you know, cry me a river. But I’d say if that member was serious about supporting people, why didn’t you support tax relief for the first time for working New Zealanders? Why don’t you come out and support a council rates cap? Why don’t you come out and support structural separation for supermarkets? No idea.

A thing to remember about the Green Party's proposed wealth tax is that wealthy people will still be wealthy after they've paid the tax.
