a lot of people want to disenfranchise a whole group because they're not informed enough but I think Boomers should still be allowed to vote despite all the studies showing they're far more likely to share fake news and election misinformation

If they pay so little attention...are they informed enough to vote?

Kiwibank's response to the fuck Buck movement may have made things worse | The Spinoff

The bank tried to link sexualised posting about its mascot to real online abuse. Suffice to say, people are not impressed.

I too am calling an in-person caucus meeting at 9.30am tomorrow to resolve discussions around my leadership

@chrisluxonmpAug 11
It is clear from various media reports and conversations there is increased speculation about my leadership.   It is my firm belief that division and disunity are a major distraction only 90 days out from the election. I also believe this distraction is unfair to the New Zealand people, and dedicated National Party candidates, supporters and volunteers, when there is so much at stake.   For these reasons, this issue needs to be resolved quickly, and I am calling an urgent in-person Caucus meeting tomorrow at 9:30am in Wellington to resolve the issue.

Huge things happening in the world of photography: NIMBYs have found a new pose to replace standing in the street folding their arms and looking fucked off. That's right, it's standing in the street giving the thumbs down and looking fucked off

I also need to know how Labour feels about Paul Henry threatening to shag Winston Peters and marry Chris Luxon
Jamie Ensor (@JamieEnsor) profile pictureJamie Ensor@JamieEnsorJul 23
Labour is outraged by Act's Paul Henry saying he'd 'shoot' Chris Hipkins in a radio game this morning. Dr Ayesha Verrall has called it a 'death threat'. Henry's told us he is 'dumbfounded' by Labour's reaction and it wasn't violent rhetoric, but 'plainly humour'. Story below -
