NZ'ers are paying $3 a litre for petrol. Did Luxon's Govt make this situation worse? Let's check the receipts: 1) They collapsed the EV market in NZ by killing the clean car discount + making fees to import gas guzzling cars nearly 80% cheaper. EV sales dropped 70%

- pensioners ($520 a week from Govt, universal) - students ($323 a week from Govt, if meeting a criteria) supermarkets: well i sure know which of these groups needs a discount!

This is what an Official Information Act request for new ferries looks like... Winston Peters at his most transparent ferryholdings.co.nz/wp-content/upl…

Today I am at hospital (not me this time), in the next cubicle there's an old guy with a head injury, so they did a cognitive impairment test incl "who is the Prime Minister?" He chuckles & says "Luxon, but not for much longer" and the nurses go "well your mind seems to be ok"

The first of the iRex ferries would have arrived Feb 2026. Designed for efficient and lower fossil fuel consumption and increased renewable energy use. We missed out on something amazing. Thanks for nothing Nicola Willis

The upshot of this latest brouhaha is NZF have used tax payer money via Parliamentary Services to buy political capital by paying Hipkins ex wife to muck rake her former husband. The usual NZF grift and total disrespect for tax payer money.

The pack mentality of ripping Chris Hipkins to pieces until he cried over his children is one of the saddest days of Journalism in NZ The new evidential threshold is now whatever someone alleges on social media This is what we is now, this is what we have become #nzpol

We are so wildly fucked. Diesel runs everything. I’ve said many times, the local farmers will be retrofitting my Nissan leaf to tow K-line. They’ll be trying to fit forks on it. It’ll be weird when my decision to fit a towbar on a leaf ends up as the smartest thing I’ve done 😂

Chris Luxon said he was the CEO of New Zealand when he was talking with Tova the other day. Here is a photo of the head office where Chris works. The company’s primary focus is putting money in the pockets of Farmers. Landlords & Property Investors. Christopher Luxon Tova O'Brien

It’s wild to me that Luxon et al seem to believe that charming other world leaders over the phone will somehow triumph over self interest if push truly comes to shove…

Marae are emergency shelters, not because of wokeness or (non-existent) govt funding or policy, but bc they voluntarily open their doors & pantries to local communities without being asked in disasters (thru earthquakes, terrorism, flooding) - ur free not to take up the offer

It's got to sting. You base your whole campaign strategy on blaming the red lot for inflation caused by an energy price shock, and then, right on cue...

This is why I’m against PPPs and using the private sector for anything which govt owns. Ao/NZ needs to bring back the Ministry of Works which built most of the infrastructure, and trained the tradies, prior to Rogernomics which locked us into these lifetime costs.

Four things that everyone should know about the whole 'Labour blew up inflation.. bbbut we're responsible economics managers'. 1. The world caught a bout of inflation. NZ was pretty muted - mainly because of where we are and because we're not reliant on imported gas (yet) [🧵1/4]
