One of the biggest disappointments of the last few months was not having the chance to debate Seymour. I so wanted to dismantle his pathetic arguments but we decided that we didn’t want to give him another opportunity to misrepresent and lie about his intentions regarding the

This is coming from a bloke who thinks Nelson Mandela, Jesus Christ and the Māori chiefs who signed the treaty would all support the Act Party. Stop whinging on Twitter and accept you lost David.

On brand for David Seymour and his party. Couldn't find a Māori couple that supports them so decided to use AI for their post. Ironic for a party that criticises anyone and everyone when the word race is used.

National and Brooke Van Velden's sick attack on women by shutting down pay equity legislation is the worst thing any Government has done to women workers in recent history. What a cruel Mother's Day present! This National led Coalition is forcing through a law change that

It seemed amazing that in the middle of the pay parity debate this past week, that I ran into my old friend Ali Mau in parliament. I haven’t seen Ali for a few years, so it was appropriate that we should run into each other in the middle of the biggest debate against women’s

Happy Mother’s Day to all our wonderful mums out there but what a sick Mother’s Day present we received from this rotten government. Punching down on every working woman waiting for a pay rise claim to be heard so that this Government can afford tobacco subsides, military

I am extremely proud of the leadership of Chris Hipkins and his speech yesterday regarding the Privileges committee ruling against Te Pati Maori. As Chippy pointed out, the penalty handed down to Te Pati Maori was disproportionate and totally over the top. Its ridiculous that

In his first speech, our new Deputy Prime Minister David Seymour claims that he is living rent free in my head! Seeing as his Government just butchered 1 Billion from Emergency Housing, Seymour is the last person to be lecturing on rent free anything! Some would have hoped that

Thanks Willy Jackson. Well said. Seymour has to go and yes he is taking National support. Do they see it?? They seem apathetic to the fact.

Sad to see the passing of another mighty All Black Stu Wilson. Man was he a champion, such a different style to other wingers. Incredibly elusive , but lethal. Loved watching him play! Neat guy too, great personality. Always friendly and up for a joke . All the best to his whānau

When Prime Minister Helen Clark asked whether John Tamihere had employed someone with a “questionable background” as his Labour Party electorate secretary, I don’t think for one moment she imagined it would be the former president of the notorious Head Hunters gang. But that’s
