As once-extinct diseases sweep through America, sickening, maiming and killing, the wild lunacy of anti-vax superstition grows ever more difficult to excuse.

The reason I've gone more left in recent years is that I previously accepted that we simply couldn't afford decent cheap housing, heavily subsidised transport, a universal basic income, etc. Then in 20 years in politics I saw what we actually could afford. And it's a lot. It's just never for you.

Things that are compatible with Christopher Luxon’s values: anything that will help keep him as Prime Middle Manager, on the expense and travel gravy train, while doing as little as possible Things that are not compatible with Christopher Luxon’s values: literally everything else

Yes, Swiss scientist Fritz Zwicky coined the term “dark matter” which is impressive, but he also coined the term “spherical bastard” to describe people who are bastards no matter which way you look at them, and I think that should be celebrated more.

It would have been nice if the rich had paid something towards the cost of the pie, but it turns out that they’ve just been eating more than their fair share of the pie, and hiding the hole that they’ve eaten underneath something that looks like a crust, but is in fact, made of shit
