This is how the Israeli minister Ben-Gvir is treating the European hostages Israel kidnapped in International Waters. Where is the outrage? Our Media and Politicians are owned, get them OUT.

I hope RNZ have that David Seymour x Tim Jago piece ready to finally publish in response to this! The extent to which NZ media, including the state broadcaster, have been increasingly obsequious toward far right politicians while STILL being slapped about is pathetic www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

David Seymour says changes are coming for RNZ leadership, RNZ disagrees
Seymour has intensified his attacks on the country's state broadcasters, suggesting changes are coming for RNZ's leadership as the government reshapes its boards.

Simple solution to low birth rates is to learn from history. The baby boom was founded on delivering a welfare state in a unionised society with taxes effective on the wealthy, preceded by five years killing fascists and their leaders.

Oh, this is good. Idaho passed a bill banning local cities from flying the Pride flag. So the cities decided to wrap the poles themselves in pride colors. This is amazing.
A screenshot of a Facebook post by CBS 2 Boise. The post text reads: "A new state law required the City of Boise to take down the Pride flag outside City Hall. Tuesday morning, the City wrapped flag poles in Pride colors and added a new sign to the window on City Hall. CBS2 reached out to the Mayor and Governor’s office for comment."
​Below the text is a collage of three photos showing these updates:
​Left: A tall metallic flagpole in a plaza at night, with its lower section wrapped in horizontal stripes matching the colors of the Progress Pride flag (black, brown, light blue, pink, white, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple).
​Top Right: A closer view of a flagpole base, also wrapped in horizontal Progress Pride flag colors.
​Bottom Right: A large window on City Hall featuring a graphic with diagonal stripes in the Progress Pride colors alongside the text, "Creating a city for everyone."
