Here's what really burns my toast. I play music in small venues that are hurting. Some are closing. These shiny stadium gigs are fine if they make financial success organically. This crap does nothing for the local music scene; it actually harms it by taking that $ away from Kiwi artists. 1/2 #NZPol

#NZpol The one benefit with ACT is they're not afraid to show you they're complete cunts. So that means we all KNOW what we're dealing with. The bad thing about ACT is... they're unafraid to push legislation like cunts too. So *that* means: KICK. THEM. OUT... or people, it *will* be happening.

The Coalition Govt will tax Aucklanders $5 billion to pay for the infrastructure to support the fast track housing developments for National Party donors. We pay so National's donors can get richer. Then we'll pay again to bail them out when they flood.

Have Peters, Seymour, Upston, Brown, Luxon, and most-recently in the light of offshore Maori, Shane Jones entered some form of race to see who can be the biggest cunt? An absolute travesty that people will actually vote for these the moistening wipes on the arsehole of humanity. Cruel.. #nzpol

Nationals latests spin posts are claiming Labour never finished Light Rail. But Light Rail was Canceled by Luxon along with the ferries, now we have neither. And the CRL hes taking credit for was started by John Key and supported by Labour. Thats a win for John Key and Labour and 2 losses to Luxon.
