💥🤮Listening to Qiulae Wong on TVNZ this morning. She confirmed that TOP will sit round the table with NZF and would support him as a Minister in any coalition they are in. Please, please.... if you are a Labour or Green voter who is considering voting for TOP, this would be a real possibility

I believe Clacton deserves an MP who will spend their time shining a light on everything the area has to offer. And why wait till I'm elected? I've been to visit one of the constituency's most stunning landmarks.

Darren Watsson makes some good points here about Opportunists...
Darren Watson critiques Opportunities Party for various reasons including undemocratic structure, lack of history of political engagement by its leader, funding etc
Another reason is the day tonday Operations are run by a previous Labour Cabinet Minister who was sacked by jacinda Ardern for inappropriate relationship with a junior staff member

***Call to action*** NZ First’s transphobic bill is lawfare against trans, non-binary, and intersex people. What can we do about it? Well, we can make sure the select committee receives as many submissions as possible against the bill. To that end I will offer my time to anyone who wants help 1/4

No one writes like @adamserwer.bsky.social www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they’re the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesive—because of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority. Minnesotans have preserved everything worthwhile about “Western civilization,” while armed brutes try to tear it down by force.

Just one more thing on the Board of Peace. The excellent Steve Holland of Reuters made multiple attempts on Air Force One last night to ask Trump what the $1 billion each BOP signatory is contributing will be spent on. At every turn, Trump evaded and obfuscated.

This is excellent. "The President is a writhing mass of impulses and political urges.... On Greenland, sage commentators talk of Arctic security, of critical minerals. It is all nonsense. Trump wants it because Trump wants it, and he sees no good reason why he should not have it." And...
