The sheer joy of watching Casey Costello, former leader of Hobsons Pledge, publicly humiliate herself on a national stage is almost too much to bear. Her ludicrous attempt to equate nicotine to caffeine, suggesting a latte could cause lung cancer, is just the tip of the iceberg.

@David_Cormack Mitchell is as dumb as a bag of rocks. Everyone knows that Operation Cobalt has been years running and was only tweaked recently for him to pretend it was ‘new’. There are tens of million$ recovered and hundreds convicted. This operation today will have been part of that intel.

Is Reti incompetent or making things up? Chippy says he finds it very difficult to believe that MoH refused to share information with Reti and Treasury and I trust Chippy. https://t.co/bSa9ijC3rT

This is how the coalition government propaganda works they fire the existing board and replace them with one of their mates normally a former National party MP. They then blame the previous administration with accusations of overspending or mismanagment and then slash that

@David_Cormack Whichever way we look at it…..we’ve been fucked, and without our consent. Turns out pre-election promises were all about power and not empathy…..there’s a surprise! 🙄

NZ Auditor-General is concerned about the #fasttrack bill’s lack of transparency & lack of protection against ministerial conflicts of interest. Will the govt majority on the parliamentary committee considering Bill heed or ignore these serious concerns?

@MintPressNews Oy vey, our ‘Hebrew’ brethren rarely fail to impress with the measure of righteous umbrage they’re able to muster at the drop of their yarmulkes. Most method actors would kill to be able to draw upon it as well! As for moi, I’d have parted with a week’s ‘hard earned’ shekel just

@StrayDogNZ @WillieJLabour Even if it was true that "things didn't improve", how would laying people off improve anything? Why would there be obvious causation? Why and how do they believe those additional workers actually made things worse? Make it make sense.

Here's @WillieJLabour taking National to task for prioritising $2.9 billion of landlord tax breaks over supporting children. Cutting services like teacher aids will have huge impacts on teachers already struggling with the workload of supporting students affected by the pandemic

Isn't the Cook Strait Ferry basically SH1? Why bother with these other expensive fixes to move traffic around Wellington 'faster' if you have a sub-par and dangerous ferry service? https://t.co/MrJTxeNnK7

It would include twin two-lane long tunnels, four kilometres in length, from north of the Terrace Tunnel to Wellington Road.
