The District Court Act 2014 establishes mandatory retirement for District Court judges at the age of 70. The Senior Courts Act 2016 does the same for High Court judges (including Court of Appeal and Supreme Court judges).

If so ageist why not a members bill for MP mandatory retirement at 70?

New Zealand doesn’t define sex or gender in law at the moment. This is a good thing because even without trans people biology is messy and doesn’t care about random lines we draw.

If you ask a biologist for a universal test for sex they’ll say one doesn’t exist.

Land & therefore residential house prices are far too overvalued for the social need that housing provides.

But a decade to fix will leave a generation in poverty.

"no progressive taxation"

🧵11/n
Alternatively [2] Progressive taxation, based upon income and/or assets:
As [1] this also effects the cost of living for individuals, but if structured more progressively with proportionally higher tax rate, does not impact an individuals capability of meeting their needs. They don't starve.
