Who wants to run when a major political party is posting AI slop depicting 2 women leaders as little girls. Disgusting. That's before we get into the deliberate disinformation campaign attacking a nonbinary MP based in homophobia #nzpol

National: random drug-testing jobseekers. US state schemes and NZ's existing one find the same thing: positive rates under 3%, well below general-population drug use. The policy raises nothing. It deters applications. That's the point. #nzpol

National promises random drug testing for jobseeker beneficiaries
National is promising to introduce random drug testing for those on the jobseeker benefit to ensure they're "ready for work".

This election, the issue of child poverty has been swallowed up by "no new taxes". How did that happen and what should we do about it? New Substack post at Hopetown substack.com/home/post/p-...

Why aren’t we talking about child poverty?
Child poverty was a hot topic in the last three elections. But it’s slipped off the agenda, even though it’s got worse. What’s going on?

Apparently corporate tax in 2025/26 was higher than Treasury forecasts. Lol. Bracket creep has held individual tax revenue up but GST tells the story. Image 2 shows total tax revenue per capita... and the completely predictable result of Government constraining spending into a slump.

National Party electoral hoarding seen beside State Highway 2 in Wellington at night. Beside a claim of "9 new taxes" written on a red background, the adjacent counter claim on a blue background of "No new taxes", has had the central bar of the N overpainted in blue to read "110 new taxes"

The US crossed the moral event horizon long ago and now approaches a singularity of depravity. A public execution only serves as a demonstration of state power. It is not justice, it's fascism. Our own government is far too obsequious in pandering to merchants of filth and death like this. #nzpol
