“We’ve come as the pallbearers of neoliberalism, to bury these shallow, insufferable ideas once and for all.” A fantastic, eloquent maiden speech from Efeso Collins, who also spoke powerfully about losing his language after teachers told him not to speak Samoan at school.

“We should be questioning the logic behind making the poorest pay to bring down inflation. It’s no comfort to the thousands of people losing their jobs now that inflation is coming down, when their income is falling further.” stuff.co.nz/money/35018301…

Awful behaviour from those involved and sad for the student, his whanau and school community. Cr Alf is justifiably angry. Glad that parents, school and community leaders are working hard in the background. nzherald.co.nz/nz/manukau-cou…

Headline horror and dishonesty (in my view) with a small-print correction in the corner some time later. Typical sensationalism on display. rnz.co.nz/national/progr…

I was on the AM Show this morning on the PM’s comments on people on welfare. I think those comments suggest a Govt that is losing sight of the human beings at the heart of the welfare system, and isn’t listening to or understanding them. Interview here: newshub.co.nz/home/politics/…

Inequality has even greater impact on Maori and Pacific communities. We need their voices and experiences at the centre of our policy and decision making. pmn.co.nz/read/society/p…

“If you can work you should work” is ableist AF and also ignores that people know what work best for them, their families and communities. Instead of sanctions we could have proper support for people to enter secure work instead of tick-box exercises. Benefit sanctions must go!

Stepping in to fix the lack of driver toilets is part of a wider push for us as a council to be more proactive on pay and conditions and on the control and ownership of assets so that workers, people who take the bus and the wider public get a better deal. 1news.co.nz/2024/02/19/toi…
