Here are just SOME of the reasons that Luxon's war on the climate means NZ now risks losing access to the lucrative European trade market. A Dutch group has lodged a complaint through the European Commission over NZ breaking its climate change promises made in the free trade agreement with the EU.

Luxon’s War on the Climate - a deliberate effort to increase emissions - Greenpeace Aotearoa

The Luxon Government claims they are serious about climate change. They say they are simply taking a different approach to cutting emissions, such as using price signals rather than regulations.

Again, gas prices spiked in 2022-23 because Russia invaded Ukraine which caused a major disruption in global supply. Then they came down. Biden didn’t cause it. Gas prices rose in 2026 due solely to the stupidity of Trump who started a war in the Middle East.

This is an entirely new phenomenon because before the vaccine, most women who survived measles were immune because they had it when they were young. But now, idiots who refuse to get vaccinated are giving birth to babies with measles. Two babies have died. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

America had wiped out measles. Now babies are infected at birth.

Congenital measles has rarely been seen in the U.S. That’s changing as vaccination declines and more pregnant women become infected.
