Cartoon. Title: Move on orders 

Little Luxon storms across the tiles to remind everyone, "HEY HEY HEY! IDES OF MARCH ISNT TILL THIS SUNDAY! NOW GET BACK TO WORK! I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE!"

Behind him hiding by a Greek La column an angry Erica Stanford can be seen brandishing a knife. 

To the right of Little Luxon three sad MP's stand - tiny Simeon, Nicola Willis and Chris Bishop. 

Those two are holding their stabby stab stabs very sadly whilst consoling each other.

Cartoon depicts National Party Prime Minister of New Zealand's 3 party coalition dressed as a clown wearing long shoes as he is tripping over the skull of smokers ( refers to plans to cancel the smokefree target and repeal legislation). Luxon's head has struck a bee's nest labelled 'Tiriti O Waitangi' from which angry bees fly to sting him on the ass. His top hat falls off labelled '7 Houses'. He is about to fall face first into budget custard while crying profuse clown tears "Why can't I get a break?" he whimpers plaintively.

Cutting dialysis just to save a couple of dollars is truly toxic behaviour. But let's ask ourselves the question: where did the money that used to be available to keep people alive actually go?

A short thread.

IT IS NOT THE JOB OF A PUBLIC BROADCASTER IN A DEMOCRACY TO REPORT THE NEWS IN A WAY THE GOVERNMENT LIKES. IT IS ESPECIALLY NOT OKAY FOR MINISTERS AND POLITICALLY-APPOINTED BOARD MEMBERS TO DICATE INDIVIDUAL EDITORIAL DECISIONS. THIS SHOULD BE FUCKING OBVIOUS.

Milei's government not only received a US $20-40 billion (NZD $33-$67 billion) bailout from Trump, his government is bringing in 12 hour work days, and stripping overtime which many Argentinians rely on

Behind every number. Since 2022 the number of New Zealand children living in hardship has increased by 47,500. Seems like that’s by design.
