Great that Israel has agreed to allow in the aid it wasn't blocking.

Marwan Barghouti is 66 years old and in his 23rd year in prison. Israel isn’t releasing him. Yet. Nelson Mandela was 66 years old and in his 23rd year in prison when he was offered release if he renounced violence. He refused, saying the government should stop its own violence.

King Cnut at work again among his dinosaur followers.

Nailed it

“The Government has commissioned a report on energy security, delayed its release, ignored most of its findings, and has proposed only incremental reforms to a very significant problem. Instead, it should have switched on proper energy reform.” Spot on! thepost.co.nz/business/36084…

Monday morning, Hamas and Israel will exchange hostages and prisoners. But the deal is lopsided. While Hamas will release all the hostages it has alive, Israel will hold on to no less than 9,000 prisoners and hostages of its own. It is time to release everyone and reunite all the

Good to see Spain and Canada invited who did the right thing unlike the Coalition who wimped out.

Mind blowing. The Luxon Government has confirmed it will rewrite NZ’s once bipartisan climate change law to dilute methane reduction targets and PERMANENTLY exclude dairy from the Emissions Trading Scheme – a move Greenpeace says amounts to full-blown climate denial. #nzpol

Hearing Jared Kushner call himself a “friend” of “Israel” is almost comedic levels of deflection when Kushner has been a generational Zionist asset embedded at the heart of U.S. policy machinery. His family literally hosted Netanyahu at their home in New Jersey, with Bibi

The Luxon government has been infiltrated by dairy lobbyists like ex-Fed Farmers president Andrew Hoggard and has gone full Trumpian climate denial with the latest announcement on methane reduction targets. The Government has confirmed it will rewrite New Zealand’s once

Farmers off the hook on climate means rest of us pick up the slack newsroom.co.nz/2025/10/13/far… decision cements New Zealand as one of the handful of countries (alongside Trump’s America and perhaps Javier Milei’s Argentina) set on worsening the climate crisis.” Caved in to Fed Farmer

Ouch! "The Govt's methane announcement is the policy equivalent of a steaming cowpat on cross-partisan climate consensus and international efforts to tackle the crisis." Farmers off the hook on climate means rest of us pick up the slack newsroom.co.nz/2025/10/13/far… #nzpol

The Coalition experiment is failing. thepost.co.nz/business/36085…

Migration: Kiwis still leaving New Zealand in record numbers . Another fail for the Coalition economic experiment on NZ. nzherald.co.nz/business/migra…

Scientists fear weaker methane target signals wider retreat from climate action. "It's all just extend and pretend. It's completely incoherent." Yep. We will all pay for this craven behaviour by the Coalition. rnz.co.nz/news/national/…

The scene in the Knesset with Trump is like watching the inverse of a war crimes tribunal. The leaders and facilitators of the Gaza genocide are congratulating each other and applauding their crimes.
