#NZ Govt’s rejection of @ClimateCommNZ recommendations on emission targets may increase risk of international law breach. Comes on top of reversal of oil/gas ban, reduced methane emission targets, ETS not being required to be consistent with Paris:

The Coalition of Chaos is living up to its name. Now they're planning to cut 81% of the Emergency Management team at the Public Health Agency. @nzlabour understands that #PublicHealth expertise and emergency preparedness matters. Being less ready for future pandemics,

What the heck is going on in this country? No one can argue or debate that this is a good move regardless of your political affiliation right, left, center. This is like getting rid of the painted center line on roads and making both lines universal direction. It makes no
Dangerous changes to #NZ electrical safety rules. Master Electricians CEO says they create “an unsafe, unworkable & legally ambiguous situation for installers & consumers”. “WorkSafe” is an oxymoron if it is introducing a 'lethal' risk of electrocution.

Biggest cut from the emergency management team, going from 11 roles to just two, and from Māori Public Health, which could drop from six staff to two. Another attack on Māori. Also why emergency management? Have they been in NZ the last 5 years? https://t.co/A4sOAfCwbp

@AynRandy666 Worst economic performance in 40 years. Austerity has never worked. 160000 unemployed, 75000 gave up & left and highest number of businesses closed in 14 years. At the same time 119 citizens increased their wealth $42 million each on average. Unfortunately they don't pay tax.

Finally, new supply. Net new house building has fallen by 37% from its record high in 2023. The only reason this hasn’t been a disaster is population growth has slowed by 61% over the same period due to record emigration...

#NZ Government’s climate change denial is in full swing: it has rejected every single recommendation of @ClimateCommNZ on emissions targets. Neither NZ nor any other country can adapt its way out of the #climatecrisis: emissions reductions needed.

It comes despite a Climate Change Commission warning that New Zealand is being hit sooner and more severely than expected.

NZ Ministry of Foreign Affairs is seeking public input as it drafts its next strategic assessment. This is an opportunity to voice concern about current govt’s direction away from principled & independent foreign policy which is damaging NZ’s reputation across a range of issues.
We are seeking your views on MFAT’s next Strategic Foreign Policy Assessment. We undertake this assessment every three years to understand our changing international context and what this means for New Zealand. Join the conversation on foreign policy ➡️ https://t.co/F2WDx8nP1q

It’s said that Seymour has been planning the failure of the school lunches since he started. Supply lunches cheaper to justify the change and saving money but knowing full well that they would be shit because no one can supply lunches that cheap so now that they have really
