Really pleased to get a full tank of petrol today for $60. Granted it was for my lawnmower, but…. I’m trying to be positive.

just a reminder that probably none of us are in the ‘top 1%’ and a capital gains tax wouldn’t affect any of us negatively (unless you hoard houses like Luxon and even then only if you sell them). VOTE GREEN 💚💚✅✅ #nzpol

It’s because Chlöe threatens to dismantle their beloved neoliberal bedrock philosophy. So I can understand why they feel that way. Nicola Willis is incompetent at the job, but at least she does a shit job of furthering THEIR ideology 🤷 I think she’d be great! 😊

Ok, so the Opportunist Party has already walked back two of their cornerstone policies .... UBI and land tax and come out with their new "bottom-line" deal-breakers. #nzpol

Nicola’s ferries won’t arrive until 2029, if ever. IREX would’ve been sailing by now and cost less that just one of National’s new RONs, that they now also can’t build. You only have a few weeks left to enrol. If you aren’t enrolled, your vote is like Nicola’s ferries. non-existent. #nzpol

In John 23:11: And the lord Jesus said unto his disciples, “I’ve got mine so fuck you, cry me a river bottom feeders”. And the lord Jesus got into his limousine and was ferried across the impossible to cross road.

National are trying to scaremonger the electorate as people turn to the Greens. Bad luck for them because the Greens are just getting started and their strong policies are resonating with voters ✅✅

From what I’ve heard about Jesus, he’d vote Greens if he were voting in this election. He was all about looking after the vulnerable, and tipping over tables of the merchants making thing unaffordable for everyone while hoarding their gold. Can someone check in on the fundy right. #nzpol

I'm never going to get my head around RW neoliberalism convincing folk that they would get better public services from private, profit-focused, suppliers than they would from state owned enterprises... Absolute bollocks.

So, after 3 years of saying National gave landlords tax cuts ( which they did ) Labour has decided they’ll keep them. I wish Chris would just go replace Chris at National already. He’d look better in a blue tie. #nzpol www.nzherald.co.nz/business/per...

as a reminder: National have not said they will break up the supermarket duopoly. They have said they'll ask the commerce commission to review whether it's viable, if their coalition partners let them. Their partners won't, and even then it's just ... a review.

How long before National (and then Labour) focus groups point out to Chris or Chris that it’s a good idea and they each announce some watered down plan that they’ll “think about”? Keep shifting that Overton Window further and further left @greens.org.nz #nzpol www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...
