Christopher Luxon's sanctimonious maiden speech... "My faith has a strong influence on who I am and how I relate to people. I see Jesus showing compassion, tolerance and care for others. He doesn’t judge, discriminate or reject people. He loves unconditionally."

This morning re-read Christopher Luxon's sanctimonious maiden speech. Got this far. "My faith has a strong influence on who I am and how I relate to people. I see Jesus showing compassion, tolerance and care for others. He doesn’t judge, discriminate or reject people. He loves unconditionally"

I think he means he has just realised back office functions are absolutely essential

Incredible analysis by @clrenney.bsky.social . Government health funding in NZ has dropped by 4.5% per person in real terms over the last year. Don't fall for their "record spending on health" spin. They are cutting cutting cutting

Paperwork error costs Comedy Club $7000 in a week When attendees were told they could not drink at a recent event, “half of them cancelled instantly”.

Not a good look for you @nzpolice.bsky.social C'mon. Safer Communities Together???

I've run JazzUp Jazz Jam at Good Times since Nov 2021. It's a great place, Pip is the best host ever. It's safe, clean and happy.

NZ Police, you are being petty

I'm loving seeing Seymour and Prebble those champions of market forces show us how commercially inept and clueless they really are, right down to basics like not knowing when you've been outplayed by the contractor

Why not just go all the way David and just tell us you're the second coming

These large contractors also have very serious legal teams writing tight af contracts. Seymour is caught by his own commercial ineptitude, and taking us all with him

Ōtautahi peeps, check out the JazzUp Jazz Jam. We have some amazing local talent.

We're into our 4th year. This Tuesday 4 Feb 7pm, we kick off 2025.

No cover charge, get a drink at the bar, be surprised and often dazzled. At Good Times Comedy Club, 224 St Asaph Street.

The battle for social media supremacy X is out, Bluesky is in, and what is Mastodon? Social media is dramatically changing and The Detail asks where it's all going.

Good point, it hardly looks official. But they've heard of it so you'd hope they'll get onto it. www.rnz.co.nz/news/thedeta...

Do your job @rnz.co.nz.web.brid.gy @stuff.co.nz @nzherald.bsky.social. If i can get under Seymour's skin surely you can at least ask questions. My email exchange with Seymour yesterday attached here

ACT party STILL proudly promoting their paedophile on their website next morning. Just so no one is confused about how close David Seymour is to this monster

Just a fairly average Kiwi without any special insight, but like most average Kiwis I believe in fairness and I despise self-serving politicians.

Here's my submission on the Treaty Principles Bill. You're welcome to ignore it or borrow from it. Just get yours in by Jan 7th

Polytech sales possible but unlikely when Te Pūkenga disestablished - minister In a surprise move, the sale of polytechnics will be on the table when the national institute of technology Te Pūkenga is disestablished.

This is outrageous. The Nats didn’t campaign on it, nor was it signalled in the Minister’s consultation. Our polytechs are part of our PUBLIC education infrastructure and there is no way that they should be up for sale.

From the nzpolitics community on Reddit: Chris Bishop's Winton Property Development corruption called out in Parliament by Labour's Arena Williams MP Posted by Mountain_Tui_Reload - 53 votes and 4 comments

The brilliant Arena Williams, MP for Manurewa, describes the $$$ benefit that Winton will gain, much of it from rate/taxpayers. Us, in other words.
The Hansard transcript is here too - it’s appalling stuff.

Winton donated around $100k to the National Party, just as an aside.
