The Parents Alliance has a Hindi name पारिवारीक मंच. परिवार = family not parents. मंच is more like platform rather than alliance but okay. Could've paid a proper translator no? Conservative Hindu parents still won't get their Hindutva agenda across the line. Like Savarkar they'll always be servants.

Dear members of the media: Stop saying “had sex with” when you’re referring to minors. Children can’t consent. “Having sex” implies consent. When an adult assaults a child, it’s rape. You’re enabling the predator class by refusing to call it what it is.

Simon Wilson's article is excellent, as always. His question to Quilae Wong is one I would also like an answer to #nzpol

By the way, how good that Qiulae Wong says Opportunity will not join a government in which Winston Peters is foreign minister.

But why stop there? How about a government in which Simeon Brown is energy minister, reinforcing our dependence on fossil fuels? Chris Bishop is fast-tracking the ruination of elite soils and efficient council planning? Louise Upston is the welfare overlord? Shane Jones runs amok in minerals and fisheries? Tama Potaka cancels emergency housing? Nicole McKee oversees the gun laws? Casey Costello protects the tobacco industry? David Seymour tells infectious children to go to school and feeds them abominable school lunches? Paul Goldsmith orders rough sleepers away, even when they’re minding their own business and have nowhere else to go? Where not a single one of them has a decent thing to say about Israel and Gaza?

Or, for that matter, given Opportunity’s clear climate commitments, why support a prime minister who presides over the undoing of climate progress and deliberately, disgracefully, shabbily, greenwashes the whole process?
