And yet Cluckson etc think it's a good idea to chuck people off Jobseeker. When did ANY of them last have to job hunt - if ever???
Applied for a job today and wondered why it only had 18 applicants, checked the job and it was only posted 2 hours ago, they're getting a new applicant on average every 6 or 7 minutes
And as someone who would be in Heap Big Shit without the help of RNs, ENs, NAs, and the occasional orderly (for both myself and my DH) I am absolutely 100% in favour of their strike. Higher pay, better support, better working conditions 💯❤️
AARGH would our politicians please stop plagiarising the US Fascist Party!!!

Reminder that it's worth carrying a cheap paint scraper to get down posters like this, alongside any transphobic bullshit you see out in public.

Rarely, there's something dangerous under the poster to harm people tearing em down

Rarely, however, is not 'never,' so paint scrapers are the way to go.
The far right is mobilised in Aotearoa.

On campus, they’re larping as Charlie Kirk styled debate bros.

There only one response to small scale fascist organising in public.

And that’s to drive it back into the shadows.

So lemme get this right, we burned 50k jobs, lost 90k citizens, fucked the energy, retail, hospo, manufacturing businesses, murdered worker rights and equal pay, set fire to public services and threw the entire health service in the dumpster

And we didnt fix inflation?

And as expected, maga/ republicans/ American fascists are claiming all visuals of No Kings are AI fakes or they were from 2017 Trump rallies 😆 nice try. Over 7 million people can say, "I was there, it's real".
WAY TO GO AMERICA!!!! NO KING IS HERE!
Over 7 MILLION Protestors AND STILL COUNTING!!!!!

We, the patients/students/families the Tripartite Govt is trying to "forced team" with, know the people striking are doing it because all these areas of employment are underpaid, understaffed, and largely ignored by Govt.
We don't believe you Ms Collins.

What a day in the Lowcountry! 💙 Over 3,700 y’all!

Huge thanks to everyone who joined the #NoKings rallies in Beaufort, Bluffton, and Hilton Head — neighbors, organizers, speakers, and everyone who showed up for democracy.

At the same time that the Luxon govt is finding as many new ways to make the #ClimateCrisis worse, it’s also telling New Zealanders it won’t help when their property is destroyed by climate change (unless you’re a farmer presumably). #nzpol
I think this is it. I'd seen this post but ignored it thinking I'd have to block all myself - no! Subscribing seems to block all.

Sanders: Today, October 18th 2025, there are more people out on the streets in more communities all over our country than we have ever seen in American history
Ooh can you share that? That'd be a timesaver.
oooh, good take. I was an asst. Mgr. in the 80's, had to be able to manage people; worked for a training institute in the 90's, EVERY SINGLE mgmt course we ran included effective communication, conflict resolution, team building/trust. How the hell did Cluckson get to the position of CEO?
I was more aware of my attributes/faults as a 25 year old CSR deciding with my manager I wanted to be a team manager and the steps to take. Then a call centre manager before 30

If I turn my professional eye to Luxon what stands out is; lack of empathy, bad communicator & hasn't built trust #NZPol

Haven’t seen numbers yet, and folks were still marching when we peeled off, but #NoKings Seattle was pretty likely the biggest protest I’ve been in
