God, this is grim.
When I was a teenager in the 80s things weren’t always great, but there was a sense that we were moving forward, that the world was getting better for women and girls.

Regulatory Standards Bill will expose the SPCA to penalty if they remove abused animals; it will expose taxpayers to compensate suspected criminals for confiscated assets; farmers can do as they want; Peter Thiels can build bunkers anywhere. A terrible bill with > 98% opposed. #nzpol

Thanks to the North Shore for having me back as your councillor. I’m proud to be the highest polling councillor on the Shore again and with the highest vote tally of any councillor in Auckland this time around.
