Centre-leftist curmudgeon. Grew up alongside kids of the UK's failed empire and I loved them all. Love community, hate greed hence my political outlook. Now an immigrant who knows and appreciates his place.

Comedic brilliance from uk-based German Henning Wen that fits quite wonderfully into New Zealand right now. #nzpol

Exactly - got to be in the green to be seen. COVID? Come on in. Influenza? Let's get you to school. Measles? Not a problem. What the experts say? Haven't we heard too much scaremongering from them? And besides, we're politicians and are by default cleverer than them.

thisquality.com/paul-henrys-... A superb article about the politics and pitfalls of populism over policy where Paul Henry is discussed. Further down though is this vital nugget. To change the government we need to mobilise and get everyone primed and ready to vote come election day. #nzpol

Perhaps HNZ have been lent upon by Stanford and Seymour to ensure that school attendance targets are not further compromised. Make fellow pupils sick? Not a problem. Make teachers sick? As above Stay home, keep warm and help keep others safe? No, we're not having a bar of that!

Someone tried for their "I'm Spartacus!!" moment in the #NationalNZ caucus. By all accounts it didn't go quite how Penk and perhaps Stanford saw it. #penktacus #nzpol

Could be a euphemism for NZFirst - overripe, rotten, smells awful, not good for you, sometimes found in the trough. And then of course there is the racist cherry-picking. #nzpol

Looks like New Zealand is shaping up to have the best parliamentarians, and indeed a government, that money can buy.

The Herald cannot help itself in being the PR wing of this awful government by being the Nats billboard. An ad it may be, and could well be paid for too, but that is not the point. Placed here it could undermine the very story about Pay and Leave that it's trying to run. RW media = twattery at work

This is what Shane Jones backcharged taxpayers for when in his hotel room a few years back. No more than some entirely innocent watching of Gardener's Weekly. Watching people on their knees doing no more than a bit of weeding. Anything else is just wokeism. #nzpol

This is Ebony proving that the blurring is something not grown out of. Indeed the only thing that changes is the velocity of the tip of the tail as for the sake of growing it simply gets faster 😁

As an England fan, might we all face an existential crisis akin to that which Wile E. Coyote faced when actually killing the Roadrunner should we actually go on and win the #worldcup? #england #fifaworldcup2026

This. I saw a chap crying with laughter on a train reading Tom Sharpe's Wilt. Some months later I went and brought it for my commute - I too cried with laughter.

Winston - I've got a head for every occasion - Peters is at it again. I favour rail and perhaps he does but we can no longer see if he is genuinely connected to a solution or if he is being opportunistic as the quest for votes ramps up. So many heads - how does he feed them all? #nzpol

Oh, and if there's something that boiled my piss about these four then it is seeing this today in Waikato countryside near where I live. Seeing it on the eve of ANZAC day too brings in to focus the rhetoric of these dangerous fools. NZ's version of flagshaggers and roundabout painters eh? #nzpol

If Tova O'Brien is wanting to talk to someone due to #luxon making himself unavailable then why not NZ's Race Relations Commissioner Dr. Melissa Derby? Together that could talk about this and what Derby intends to do about it. #nzpol

Two rounds of Tova O'Brien and a third with John Campbell means that Luxon has now thrown the towel in in the Political Banterweight Championship At least he has the ever-reliable, ever-sychophantic My Cockring in the blue corner. #nzpol

Since when did being drunk, arseholed, wankered, or being off one's trolley, yield to being twatted? Always associated it with being on the wrong end of a punch, milk bottle, rolling pin etc. Ohh, and Batman too!

The roads are always quieter when the kids are on school holidays. The kids have just returned to school following the break. Can we expect a real life correction to fuel stocks over the next few days? Over to you Nicola Willis.. #nzpol
