What you need to know about the Jobseeker eligibility changes Explainer - Thousands of young people will no longer be eligible for Jobseeker payments. Here's what we know.

What a cruel Govt this is!

The parental income test limit will be $65,529, so parents earning more than $65K will now have to support their 18- and 19-year-old children while they look for work.

The ave. household income at the end of June 2024 was $134,599, so let's bash the poor again. #nzpol

Maybe time for this to come back. Have the school lunches been sorted yet?

There was a fucking NOOSE outside Parliament where Seymour wandered about & 'engaged' with folk.

His inability to understand the difference between a noose as a historical reference & a threat to parliamentarians is embarrassing.

If it wasn't for hypocrisy he'd have nothing to speak about, ever.

So, the Spinoff published a column today running cover for Bishop’s racist remarks, by trying to pretend his utterances were anything but, yet Bishop’s fellow govt MPs have just shown how much they are steeped in anti-Māori, colonial racism.

Looking forward to the All Blacks being suspended for 21 days after each game from now on

The most upsetting thing in today’s debate, for both Mr and me, was the oft espoused idea that if TPM had apologised and shown contrition the penalty would not have been so high.

To which we both say
Fuck that shit! They have nothing to apologise for.

#nzpol

one of the most embarrassing decisions from one of our worst and most embarrassing governments …so obviously the strategy moving forward will be more of it

Fridge magnets that read: FUCK THIS GOVERNMENT

What's that fridge??

Yeah, you're right.

"government has freed up billions of dollars"

Curious. Was it "freed up" from the Pay Equity Fund? #NZPol

mandatory typo too, one of us

how can any reasonable person not feel disgusted about ACT NAT NZF after watching this from Tamatha Paul in full flight

she calls them out unequivocally

To those in New Zealand today aged 55 years or older who are cheering on the political view that climate is a woke agenda- I repeat- no one over 55 years of age in 2020 will ever experience the 4 to 5 times greater exposure to disasters young children now face #nzpol www.ipcc.ch/report/ar6/w...

Great thread. The centralised too-big-to-fail corporate contract Seymour chose for school lunches is *everything* these fools always say about the public sector. It's beyond irony.

For someone who doesn’t like being proven wrong…he seems to go out of his way to be wrong…is it a kink??

#BHN Hosking and Luxon lying about what nurses earn YouTube video by DOC Studios

Luxon, the most unaware, not briefed and in general useless PM we had all of a sudden knows exactly how much a nurse earns. When asked how much he spends on weekly food he didn't know he should include earing out.
Where did this number come from?

Luxon unsure how many boot camp participants back in custody The Prime Minister acknowledged that there would be "some reoffending", but would not get into individual cases to "respect people's privacy".

This is amazing stuff. They ran a pilot boot camp for youth offenders and their response to questions about whether they will tell us how the pilot went, was it successful, what were the results, what was learned from this pilot is 'absolutely fucking not how dare you'

Call him out in the house about Jago

'Know all the facts': Seymour hits back at PM after his Polkinghorne letter judged ‘ill-advised’ Act leader has not held back in his response to the Prime Minister's criticism.

AND he clapped back at the PM's (pitiful) response to the Polkinghorne letter.

Somebody ought to press him on actively covering up for a predatory Paedophile to avoid tarnishing his electoral votes

So how many strikes is that for David Seymour?

The current Republican Congress is made up of cowards. They all should be voted out in the Midterms. They do not work for us. They work for Trump. If someone walked up behind them and said primary, they would shit their pants. They have no credibility.

On the same fucking day. WTF.

People lining up and turning their backs on the speaker.

The response as David Seymour is speaking at Waitangi today. The microphone has been cut out and the crowd is singing to drown him out.

Seen at Paihia today.
