Letting David Seymour chip away at Te Tiriti is a guaranteed tear in the fabric of our foundation, don’t let him be the dripping water that collapses the mountain of progress.

David speaks in English because it's the only language he speaks.
Māori speak in English sometimes because it's the only language David speaks.
Why won’t you discuss your involvement in the Atlas Network, @dbseymour ?
Well, that should ensure we don’t get a 20% tariff slapped on all our exports to the US, then.
New Zealand and the United States have a strong and enduring partnership.
Good to speak with President-elect @realDonaldTrump this morning to congratulate him on his historic election victory.
We agreed on the importance of deepening ties between our two nations and I look forward to doing just that.
If the left don’t want to be permanently out of government, around the world, we need something big. Something visionary. Something transformative.
Minor corrections to right-of-centre policies won’t do it. We need a bold, progressive vision. Where will it come from?
And it starts. The abuse of power is already underway…

So much wrong with this (Internships? Unpaid work. Prayer? I’m guessing only a particular kind).
But how will he enforce it with a Dept of Ed? He can’t “send it back to the states” and still have massive federal regulations around it.
It’s like he’s not thought it through….
Donald Trump announces his 10-point plan to rebuild America's school system,
Among others, promises to bring back 'school prayer. '
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Cette vidéo, d'août 2023, montre Trump parlant de la montées des variants du COVID-19 à cette époque.
Elle est donc sans aucun rapport avec la déclaration d'urgence sanitaire mondiale pour la variole du singe, qui a été faite en août 2024.

Those four bears.
Respectively sacrificed a marmalade sandwich, a jar of honey, a picnic basket, and Paul McCartney.

Yes, you read that right. Seymour is arguing that Māori kids have "every advantage in life".
It takes only a very short engagement with the facts to know that is untrue.

This is shameless and deliberate manipulation of the truth which entirely ignores the reasons for and value of ensuring we have Maori doctors.
@dbseymour
Are you a smart young person who works hard? You deserve a fair chance to go to university based on your efforts, not your background.
But Otago and Auckland universities choose who gets into medical school partly based on ethnicity.

"The Democratic Party has moved too far left"
No it hasn't and last time it actually did move significantly leftwards Americans liked it so much they gave the president 4 terms.
You need universal programs. You need to tax the rich. You need to boldly lean into class warfare.

It really is astonishing that Adrian basically created an English idiom.
Face eating leopards is beyond an internet joke by now. It’s just a saying.
