He is. His lies go on and on. They're so many that the weight of them sinks the lid

The rich ones sleep easily knowing they can access private medical treatment. They just don't realise they still rely on the public hospitals if they are in an accident. I think they think they're in a different reality

I really hope Opportunity smell the roses and, if they get into parliament, don't go with National. They'd be showing their true colours if they did. I hope I'm wrong as I'm not hostile to most of the policies they've shared with us so far. #nzpol

Like Shane Jones, Winston Peters is a fossil from a bygone era. He is showing his age. Happens to us all in the end if we're lucky. He needs to retire and spare us the constant culture wars only him and his party are interested in fighting. #nzpol

I can guarantee one thing. If the numbers on the TVNZ minor party debate poll falls like that on election day, Luxon will be on the phone to Opportunity Party. He said he won't work with them. I don't believe him. He lies #nzpol

Yes I agree. But you know that costs money and govts, particularly Nat lead ones, don't give a toss

I unfortunately, have had trouble breathing in the past. Not lifelong, but I think I have an inkling of what you've experienced. I remember waking up finding it hard to breathe and the only thing that seemed to help was drinking water. Was since diagnosed with COPD, after weeks in hospital

"Let's Take Back Our Country" slogan from NZ First reminds me of the Brexiters slogan "Take back control". They're both meaningless drivel. It's like they're living in a different reality. #nzpol

The warm weather is finally here. Whanganui got the high today of 24 so I'm told as I missed the TVNZ weather forecast. Yippee!

It's like playing the National Party greatest hits, or at least to a person who likes punishing people unlucky enough to become unemployed. Waste of time and taxpayers money

I never liked the clueless Louise Upston and this justifies my stance. Absolutely clueless with nothing but reckons to back up their views. She's supposed to be a Minister not some ignorant person from the streets

It's worse in New Zealand I think. 5mg/L in drinking water. Good thing I don't drink water from the tap that much. Not that it'd kill me but it doesn't taste that nice and I think they only do it every so often. Do you know what the limit is in German drinking water?. 0.3mg/l.

I've waited that long too. I almost didn't get put in the ward. But I'm on immune suppressents so that clinched it. I was there for hours in a chair in the corridor. Despite the stress they were very professional and caring when they did get time to see you.

We've been given another reason to get rid of the National lead govt this coming election. They want to get rid of MMP via a referendum. If they do that I might just as well live in the UK. #nzpol

I find it disgusting that racists take advantage of tragedy against the wishes of the family of the victim. I realise I'm helping in some way by sharing this, but at the same time we should not be silent on things like this

I think they overstate the support of Reform in the UK. From what I understand, it's on its way down in the polls now that its members and Farage are being caught in traps of their own making. Hope I'm right. Hoping One Nation will make the same mistakes.

I can't answer that fire you. It was just hearing about presidential appointments of judges and elections of sheriffs that sounded like a recipe for disaster. I'm not interfering in USA politics any further than making those observations. Though what happens in the USA can affect the world

No it's not that simple or desirable. And to be clear we're talking about law enforcement officers and judges, not senators or local council members.

I understand they also elect sheriffs and some judges are appointed by politicians. They should stop that.

Veteran NZ journalist Richard Harman -
POLITIK

The Maiki Sherman lynch mob is frightening. This is the most hostile environment within which to be a political journalist I have known in my 55 years as a journo. The mob is ruling at the moment. They have tasted blood. Who will they turn on next?
