When Prime Minister Helen Clark asked whether John Tamihere had employed someone with a “questionable background” as his Labour Party electorate secretary, I don’t think for one moment she imagined it would be the former president of the notorious Head Hunters gang. But that’s

Chippy has been attacked for stating the obvious: that NZME is a Tory media company and the NZ Herald are right-wing ratbags! ZB are the worst! When challenged on ramraids, Chippy spoke the truth. We don't see crime stories covered the way they were under Labour because the

I got such a shock on Thursday morning when the terrible news came through that Tāmaki Makaurau MP Takutai Kemp had died — the second MP to die in this term. Tash, as she was known to friends, was a staunch advocate for Māori, young people, and her constituents of Tāmaki and

I was on Q+A with Jack Tame on Sunday discussing the completely unfair and disproportionate punishment handed down to Māori Party MPs. Also discussed the Budget that saw over $1 Billon dollars, over the last two years, cut from targeted Maori initiatives on top of the continued

Sad to see the passing of another mighty All Black Stu Wilson. Man was he a champion, such a different style to other wingers. Incredibly elusive , but lethal. Loved watching him play! Neat guy too, great personality. Always friendly and up for a joke . All the best to his whānau

Churr @WillieJLabour. You nailed it with this korero. David Seymour is extremely dangerous to all of us. Wake up New Zealand!!!
In his first speech, our new Deputy Prime Minister David Seymour claims that he is living rent free in my head! Seeing as his Government just butchered 1 Billion from Emergency Housing, Seymour is the last person to be lecturing on rent free anything! Some would have hoped that

Thanks Willy Jackson. Well said. Seymour has to go and yes he is taking National support. Do they see it?? They seem apathetic to the fact.

Great catching up with this guy yesterday at my Marae. Sir Ian Taylor Entrepreneur, Businessman , broadcaster, singer you name it and Ian has done it all! I first met him when he was on the Māori Television board a decade back when we had a bit of a tiff and disagreement but

We have two New Zealand's. One where the rich are wealthy and sorted and the one where people who aren't wealthy and sorted suffer. On RNZ today we heard about the level of desperation youth homelessness is causing. Manaaki Rangatahi Pou Arahi (chief executive) Bianca

I am extremely proud of the leadership of Chris Hipkins and his speech yesterday regarding the Privileges committee ruling against Te Pati Maori. As Chippy pointed out, the penalty handed down to Te Pati Maori was disproportionate and totally over the top. Its ridiculous that

Happy Mother’s Day to all our wonderful mums out there but what a sick Mother’s Day present we received from this rotten government. Punching down on every working woman waiting for a pay rise claim to be heard so that this Government can afford tobacco subsides, military

It seemed amazing that in the middle of the pay parity debate this past week, that I ran into my old friend Ali Mau in parliament. I haven’t seen Ali for a few years, so it was appropriate that we should run into each other in the middle of the biggest debate against women’s

National and Brooke Van Velden's sick attack on women by shutting down pay equity legislation is the worst thing any Government has done to women workers in recent history. What a cruel Mother's Day present! This National led Coalition is forcing through a law change that

On brand for @dbseymour and his party. Couldn't find a Māori couple that supports them so decided to use AI for their post. Ironic for a party that criticises anyone and everyone when the word race is used.
