@nzgreensglobal.bsky.social have come out with so many great policies this election. But will they commit to clean air in schools like the UK Greens? 💚💚💚

Public health, a roadshow, and political spin
The Jobseeker Health and Disability increase is a public health funding failure.

what needs to be added to this is the magnitude of the falsehood. i.e Hipkins was "mostly false" by a dollar for the price of an NZ block of butter in Australia. Luxon was "mostly false" about Labour having an $18 billion fiscal hole, which is 18 billion (10 orders of magnitude) times worse

“Everyone in Aotearoa deserves to be able to take part in public life &go about their everyday lives, without being secretly filmed. We call on the next NZ Govt to introduce an immediate pause on the sale of consumer smart glasses until effective, enforceable privacy&safety safeguards are in place”

Stop the sale of smart glasses until privacy and safety safeguards are in place
Women and girls are already being secretly filmed, including in Aotearoa Smart glasses are entering a world where women and girls already experience voyeurism, sexual harassment and image-based abuse....

What a mess! Covid surging in Alberta & hospitals filling up fast with Covid patients! Preventable: •Get vaccinated! •Wear an N95 respirator in indoor public spaces eg hospitals, schools, workplaces. •Clean the air with ventilation and filtration •Use germicidal UV lights in indoor public spaces.

- Asthma and respiratory infections are leading drivers of school absenteeism. Clean air reduces sick days. - Clean air reduces staff sickness too - decreasing money spent on relief teachers Clean air now!

Clean air in schools is vital for protecting the next generation's health and supporting school attendance. - High carbon dioxide (CO₂) levels in poorly ventilated classrooms cause drowsiness and poor focus - Improved ventilation and filtration prevent viruses including Covid, RSV, and influenza.

Is it time to abolish the minimum wage exemption?! Min $2 per hr if disabled Labour: Were trying to get this changed. Will have to figure out if can fund it. Greens: Current govt stopped subsidies for employing disabled people Opp: We could help with citizens income / supporting employers

Yup, they don't care. Recall in 2023 Brooke van Velden said "When it came to Covid, we completely blew out what the value of a life was, completely" Then in April 2024, Seymour said "We accept Covid happened but that's largely subsided now" And see these previous quotes👇 #nzpol
Extract from a Newshub article on 25 June 2024 quoting NZ govt minister Louise Upston:

"Funding was increased during COVID-19 due to the extra demand and challenges in getting food to people in lockdown, but the pandemic has now passed and we are continuing the last Government's transition back to normal services."
Excerpt from a 2 October 2023 NZ Herald report:
Luxon said he's had Covid twice.
National didn't have a specific pandemic plan but said normal risk management would be part of a National-led Government.

I'm glad they did the study. I had to switch doctors to get my long Covid diagnosed. The first one told me "diet and exercise" in response to sudden, extreme fatigue after a Covid infection. Thus it was 1.5 years before I was diagnosed.
