Anne Salmond: Bats in the belfry, trolls in the Beehive Dame Anne Salmond laments the falling standards of our political leaders, their attack dogs and policy sources while New Zealanders endure such hard times newsroom.co.nz/2025/09/05/bat…
This is the cost of dumping #3Waters. 'Ungodly'. thepost.co.nz/nz-news/360799…
Mariam Dagga, killed by Israel today, was an incredibly talented photographer. She relentlessly and courageously documented the genocide. I'm going to share some of her images. Graphic content included.

All is revealed. Meanwhile nurses and teachers get a 1% pay increase, MPs get a 10% increase and Landlords get a huge tax cut. Trust me, this govt doesn’t give a fuck about the people! And $700M down the toilet @chrisluxonmp @NicolaWillisMP @dbseymour @winstonpeters
Good time to reshare this
I'm so proud and lucky and we had this amazing woman leading us through the Covid pandemic. World class response right there...#ChurArdern
Working in a hospital 2020 we were seeing waves of people dying of Covid. It was terrifying. When the vaccines came out we were fighting to get to it The sense of relief getting the first dose was enormous. I'll never forget that time,even if you all have.
Short little memory seymour. @dbseymour
People are starting to wake up. National dropping in the polls. 🤣 @chrisluxonmp
