Seymour is panicking and outright telling voters to split their votes, the right are fucking scared. #nzpol

One thing I've found looking at policy is, Labour and Green policy can work really well together. Meanwhile you have a lot of friction between the Coalition parties policy, maybe Opps will realise who can actually be adults come November. #nzpol

That Labour can do better and that Curia/TPU polls are dogshit are not mutually exclusive #nzpol

Honestly, until diseal goes back to at least close to what it was before the fuckwit in the White House and his drunk fascist lackey decided they needed to feel manly, I think not putting the tax on fuel up is fine. #nzpol

I hope that there is a push on all parties in opposition now to actually devolve power to councils properly, after the strong arm wank Luxon and his cronies have pushed on everyone #nzpol

A frustrating vibe I've seen here is people assuming voters on the left annoyed with Labour will go to Greens by default. You need to win people over on the Greens vision, not just Labour bad, and a lot of the energy here carries less "We need to bring them in" and more "How could they not?" #nzpol

You know, the Labour fiscal plan isn't bad IF you include the Greens tax plan with it... just saying. #nzpol

Content warning - long grumpy post about arts funding ahead. South Island based arts organisations were reported as getting just 10% of Creative New Zealand funding. That's bad enough. What I discovered next was astonishing.

The Greens & Opportunity should be calling their policies TAX RELIEF - because for over 70% of the population what you take home after tax is lower. Current language is allowing the right to wrongly depict what happens to the wealthiest 10-20% as the general effect. Smart labelling matters #nzpol

Someone should really ask Luxon how a fuel excise isn't a tax on working people #nzpol

Cait, Jarl of the Bread Makers 🏳️‍⚧️ @jarlbreadmaker.bsky.social · 10/08/2026

Do you think Luxon doesn't think about fuel excise as a tax because he's never personally thought about it, as he never had to fill his own car? #nzpol

I do agree with this, but I will acknowledge the marijuana referendum was the result of a government from 2017-2020 where one Party wanted legalisation (G), one didn't have a particular side (L) and one that did not want it (NZF). We can have a government without the part that didn't want it.

What Stanford is doing with the social media ban stuff is exactly what supposed bipartisan lawmaking should not be. The whole idea of it is meant to be that both sides acknowledge the need for change and agree to put something in place, not "Do it because our friends don't like us." #nzpol

I swear, anytime I link up with my Labour or Greens friends, there is a new situation of Luxon putting his foot in his mouth. Truly impressive levels of ego. #nzpol

I hate that I have to keep saying this, and at this point I'm gonna start being more direct about it. STOP USING AI FOR YOUR POSTS! It stands against everything the left should stand for, and is also frankly, in a word, cringe. #nzpol

One thing I do enjoy about being connected with both Greens and Labour people is, I get to see where there is the alignment and similar vibes. This weekend, it was entirely laughing at Paul Henry, like his named was mentioned by both with such deserved disrespect. Quite heartwarming. #nzpol

The members bill to make stalking a crime was literally lodged by Labour Party's Ginny Anderson in response to a murder that happened in 2022. Luxon wont tell you that though 🤷

Not only is this a really damn good policy, but it actively one-ups National's now very sad looking solar policy. Which is not just a great move, but really, really fucking funny #nzpol

It should be said, you get a lot of immigrant communities who vote against the current government parties, especially for Labour. This is blatantly voter supression against their political rival's electoral base. #nzpol

I do not expect Labour to share the exact same policy as the Greens, if they did, there would be no reason for both parties to exist. And with the current government, expressing their leadership of a government makes sense. It can be done with more respect, disagreement in method, not cause #nzpol

So Greens have policy that both increases tax revenue and cuts taxes for almost everyone, Labour has policy that makes healthcare costs way lower and limits the cost of PT. National meanwhile only have a policy that actively forces your pay out of your pocket for Kiwisaver. It says enough #nzpol

I had not paid any attention to the Rugby, didn't even know it was on last night. However, as soon as I saw this I knew who had won. The Luxon Curse is strong, and I request he say ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about the Blackcaps.

The poll today is great, but these numbers also prove both this election is very much winnable, and will be very close. Please if you can, get out and help. Be that with Greens, Labour or TPM do what you can, there is so many ways to help and efforts are already in full swing. 💚❤️🖤 #nzpol

Just putting a thought out before bed, seeing a bit of an uptick of AI or AI looking images in #nzpol and can I say... don't just don't. AI is stupid, steals from creatives, sucks up resources and is the aesthetic of fascists now. Just don't.

I do feel like in the question about Labour policy is somewhere between extremes, honestly, I can not expect all the policy now, and it's still 5 months out. However, gimme something to chew on (to a lesser extent, this also applies to the Greens and TPM.) #nzpol

The Roy Morgan poll is strange, like jumps like that in polling don't really happen, and there isn't any event that would make sense to explain it. Maybe just some outliers that can happen just all lined up at once? I dunno it's really weird #nzpol

One of the best ways to demonstrate that this hate is not welcome in AoNZ (or anywhere) is to vocally show the love that replaces it - remind the minority pushing for this that they *are* the minority.

Just to be clear, saying it's a distraction isn't wrong. It's true because the culture war bullshit is equal part distraction and real hate. Hipkins got it wrong, not for what he said, but didn't say. Which was an affirmation of support for trans people. #nzpol
