ACT's proposed Treaty referendum would be "divisive and unhelpful", National leader Christopher Luxon said. https://t.co/0oJ1bRlWHx

My precious sister peacefully left us this morning. She bravely battled for years but it was hard to recover after her husband died 5 years ago. No more pain or suffering. We grieve our loss but rejoice her gain. One day I will tell her story. For now we both mourn and celebrate.

So with Angee Nicholas losing Te Atatu it means National is without (as far as I can see) an MP with clear Pacific heritage.

On these numbers the next govt will have no MPs of Pasifika heritage - how demoralizing. Alongside @teanau_tuiono and our @NZGreens colleagues u can count on us to be a strong voice for Pasifika communities and keep the govt in check.

Not a good start, he is an unknown, lacks gravitas - a lot of work ahead for him, Winston is his best bet regardless of what NZ thinks

Is real reason baldy not going to Pacific Leaders Forum because he doesn't want to embarrass himself and not ready for the job and by all accounts if coalition talks are running so streamlined efficiently and smoothly why has he delegated his trip to Brownlee & stayed home?

The pustulent wretches of the Taxpayers Union are today demanding that the Reserve Bank governor be sacked for (no, really) giving a speech about the systemic implications of climate change. This isn't just trite and cynical ...

"It was an opportunity missed. The election has come & gone with virtually no discussion of the long-term issues that profoundly affect our country." @PeterGluckman & Bridget Coates encourage more meaningful conversations & a more future-oriented mindset. https://t.co/fnucr2xQfH
