I have been reading the Financial Statements of the Government of New Zealand, year ended 30 June 2025. Audited by Audit New Zealand. Here is what it says. The government took in $169.8 billion in revenue last year. The majority of that is taxes. Forced. Compulsory. Taken from

A Labour candidate says his party is about more than “money and profits”. I too once thought this. But thanks to the kind and tolerant left booting me out because I know what a woman is, I have had the chance to reflect on what that means. And I’ve come to realise the left

That’s just what happens when you push apartheid

All true my friend, except I never attended Rainbow Tick brainwashing school in the end. #middlefingertomanagement

Maiki Sherman is stood down for 5 days. 2 are a weekend and the other 3 are recess days when the house is not sitting. Fucking wet bus ticket shit from the Fat Controller

Amazing that Gerry Brownlee has suspended Maiki Sherman from 1 to 5th of May. 1st is a Friday no MPs at Parliament, 2cnd and 3rd weekend Parliament effectively closed, Monday 4th no post cabinet presser as Christopher Luxon is in Singapore which leaves Tuesday 4th when Parliament

Alert: 🚨🚨🚨 Ardern in FREQUENT contact with HIPKINS !! According to a friend of mine who works in telecommunications, the Socialist Commander — Jacinda 'The Wicked Witch' Ardern — is in constant contact with Chris Hipkins ! Apparently — and don’t quote me on this — she’s in

Why you feel poor. Why it feels impossible to get ahead. You earn $50 an hour. $100k a year. Solid. Then the state takes its cut. Income tax. GST. Rates. Levies. Fuel tax. Payroll tax. ACC. On and on. Roughly half. Gone. You are left with $50k. Now you go to spend it. But

Seymour’s gone after state media again and Maiki Sherman’s jumped from TVNZ. How much longer before we admit RNZ and TVNZ are just expensive activist newsletters? dailytelegraph.co.nz/news/seymour-e… #MediaBias
