This week on The War on News, Martyn Bradbury takes aim at a government that recognises fossil fuels but not human rights, stunts over sincerity, and climate policy made for property developers. 🛢️ Palestine? No. Oil? Absolutely. This government refuses to recognise Palestine — but will recognise oil and gas exploration. Because nothing says “values-driven leadership” like embracing carbon emissions while turning a blind eye to occupation and genocide. What’s next? Rights for cancer? Sympathy for zombies? Cabinet seats for the Klan? 📩 Luxon’s Weak & Cheap Letter: The Prime Minister sent a ‘sincere’ plea to Chris Hipkins begging Labour not to overturn his oil exploration plans — and leaked it to media before Hipkins could respond. It wasn’t diplomacy. It was desperation. When your environmental policy is so fragile you have to pre-emptively beg the opposition not to reverse it, you’re not leading — you’re lobbying. 🏚️ Climate responsibility: it’s your fault now. New research from the University of Auckland slams the government’s fragmented, market-driven climate “leadership.” Policy has been devolved to homeowners and insurers, narrowing climate response to protecting property — not people or the planet. The hypocrisy’s hot, the planet’s hotter. It’s not news. It’s the War on News.
The Government of What Not To Do.
Luxon obviously benefitted time and again, from the old wokey employment policy whereby you can’t be sacked for incompetence. You have to be moved sideways and be given another chance to prove yourself.
He must have spent his life being moved sideways, or even up, where he ‘couldn’t do any more harm’.
Opinion has it that being made CEO is a great place to put these people, but it doesn’t improve their characters.
