Health privatisation isn't like flicking a switch. It's a deliberate process that erodes public and expands private. The Healthy Futures (Pae Ora) Amendment Bill is another step toward a two-tier system. SUBMIT NOW on the Parliament website.

This government is enshrining the gutting of our health system into law. #onetermgovernment

I made this post the other day because I can’t believe how little attention the Pae Ora Amendment Bill is getting. SUBMIT NOW. HEALTH PRIVATISATION is about to become LAW.

Todays Victim of RDS is none other than David Seymour. With a skin thinner than a pavlovas, David's best promotion of his bill is to attack opposing views. He cant find anyone outside ACT to promote his bill, so his derangement leads him to think he is a victim. #NZPOL #BHN

She is miserable and hypocritical, but let’s not characterise or compare women to animals, eh? It’s dehumanising, degrading misogyny that hurts all women.

I hear cost of living in Australia is so great we're all moving there. Maybe their tax rates have something to do with it...

@clrenney.bsky.social being denied access to the budget lockup gives strong media censorship totalitarian government vibes. #nzpol

#nzpol At 5pm yesterday, the Treasury informed the New Zealand Council of Trade Unions Te Kauae Kaimahi (NZCTU) it has been barred from attending the Budget lock-up on 22 May. This is the first time the CTU has been prevented from attending a Budget lock-up in living memory

For a government that bangs on about democracy this is insanely undemocratic. Workers apparently don’t deserve democracy.

Yup ... in economics jargon, this is resource grab.

Represents an eye-watering flow of *real resource wealth* expended by women, and not compensated for by men.

So, reflects flow of *real resource wealth* (aka power) transferred - and will now continue to be transferred - from women to men.

That number that Minister Willis is surprised about the size of is some measure of the magnitude of theft of women's time and energy. Instead of saying 'it has been so bad we will make sure the wrong is somewhat righted' they are doubling down on the wrong. Absolutely horrific move by the govt.

Chris Jensen @chrisjensenj.bsky.social · May 8

Yes, I too am shocked at the number ... of billions of dollars that women who hold our society together are being cheated out of

Teachers
Nurses
Youth Workers
Social Services

Who THE FUCK thinks "gee imagine if the government had more of their money instead"

Where is NICOLA GRIGG MP, Minister for Women, on her government’s attack on the Equal Pay Act? Nicola Willis trotted out Stanford and Upston for a performative demonstration of girlboss support but from the MP responsible for representing the interests of women we hear absolute silence. Appalling.

ACT: “we need a referendum on tpb so people can express their views” Also ACT: “we don’t need to process all of the public submissions it’s a waste of time”

Again showing their disdain for democracy despite claiming to be protectors of it. #nzpol

You nailed it! Also Rima Nakhle MP is now in the Hansard on this issue being petty and irrelevant instead of behaving like the adult we need and I feel a perverse pleasure knowing it will be there for the rest of eternity for historians and scholars to cite and analyse.

For those of you who enjoy some light passive-aggressiveness, the @nzscientists.bsky.social website homepage now (and for the foreseeable future) tells you how long it's been since AoNZ had a Prime Minister's Chief Science Advisor. 211 days and counting! 🧪

Today in Milan, a student activist group hung a trash-filled effigy of Musk upside down on a gate outside of piazzale Loreto, where Mussolini's body was displayed in 1945.
They left the message: "C'è sempre posto a piazzale Loreto, Elon" (There's always room in piazzale Loreto, Elon)
