Wish I could talk to Chlöe or Marama for 5 mins. Just wanna let them know if they form a government, & during negotiations they made getting rid of relationship means testing for the permanently disabled/chronically ill a non negotiable, & got it across the line, it would change my life. #nzpol

Do the govts announcements this week seem a bit random? Do they feel almost targeted? Like theyre trying to do things to make specific groups of people angry even? Yea, thats the point. Theyre trying to make you talk about anything that isnt the COST OF LIVING CRISIS. It's a trap.

Worth remembering that if it costs the government $4.5b to reverse the gender pay tax, then it costs the women affected $4.5b to leave it in place.

Second PSA for the evening: Cauliflower is cheap right now. You can turn a classic into an “I can’t choose” hybrid and make macaroni AND cauliflower cheese. And if you really want to go overboard, you can add some Gochujang to your cheese sauce. (I also added a little miso. I’m sorry. Try it.)

Remember when Ardern resigned before her preferred PM polling had dropped to 30%? And now we get to choose between Mr 19% and Mr 14% Fucking egotistical white dudes insisting they are the best choice despite it being glaringly obvious that no one wants them as PM.

Hipkins' comments earlier this week that they wouldn't reinstate the (I think) universal newborn payment was revealing. The current govt arrived and changed a ton of stuff under urgency before lunchtime. Labour won't do the same.

They may have been worried about that, but I think the more important observation is that Labour didn't *want* to change things. They were - and are - happy with things as they are. And voting them back in won't change that.

Reality: Labour make this election about one thing: Beige. Beige policies, beige practices, a gradual slide to the right. The focus groups say they can win on all 3. They've not bothered looking beyond that, and haven't read the polls. It should be a slam dunk.
