ACT the party of Crypto-bro privilege
RNZ political donations tracker: ACT has now raised more from large donations than it got in 2023
RNZ is tracking the money flowing to the parties this election year and where it is coming from.
In an update on Tuesday 1 September it was revealed the tally of donations of $20,000 and above tipped over the $6 million mark to $6.2m.
ACT has edged in front of National in the rolling tally of donations after banking $100,000 from tech entrepreneur Brian Cartmell.
ACT also received donations from Craig and Shayne Greenlees, Andrew Bagnall and Jonathan Ayling.
ACT’s total of $2m in large donations now exceeds what it raised in the same way in 2023.
Here’s where things stand across all parties for declared donations of over $20,000.
RNZ
ACT are putting property rights ahead of human rights so there is nom surprise the most wealthy wankers in NZ are poring money into ACTs pockets.
The right manipulate your petty bigotries with culture war revenge fantasies while quietly advancing the interests of the wealthiest.
You hate Jacinda, da vaccines, da Trans and da Māori so much that you are prepared to be whores for the rich.
Get off your knees Kiwi!
The Right collect enormous donations to implement their interests through deregulation while starving the State of taxation revenue so that there is no wealth to redistribute.
That’s why National, ACT and NZF are all pimping no taxes.
The project is to starve the State of revenue so that privatisation becomes seen as the solution.
That’s why the Government are underfunding public services.
You are being manipulated.
TDBs own Tim Selwyn has written a damaging investigation of how the crypto-Bros are buying ACT party policy…
Tim Selwyn: Crypto Bro’s or Crypto Ho’s? Seymour and McKee’s Crypto Shows
It must be an Act Party sense of humour to have brought out their crypto currency policy in time for this year’s New Zealand Gambling Harm Awareness Week. Maybe it just coincided with the local crypto con, CryptoWinter26 NZ conference, at Queenstown last week by accident. Leader, and Red Dwarfcos-play favourite, David Seymour, has been promoting the party’s increasing commitment to full-scale, post-apocalyptic libertarian monetary theory on the podcasts with the crypto bros, while his deputy, Nicole McKee, has been at the digital gang-bang and thrown NZ on the block chain.
Seymour was on the NZ Investor podcast hosted by a NZ-based American. Americans festoon every crypto story.
Seymour spoke of people wanting to invest in crypto being treated unfairly. A human rights abuse. But what mad gambler would be investing in an intangible piece of blockchain code at this late hour of human consciousness? None of his arguments carried any weight and he didn’t seem overly convinced of them either. He was confused and flaky, arguing that New Zealanders are against crypto because they have a tall poppy complex. (I told you it didn’t make any sense, but hang in there for a few hundred thousand reasons that may explain his position).
And Seymour admits he doesn’t really have a clue about crypto too; but let’s all go on that risky, chaotic path of certain boom and bust towards that post-apocalyptic libertarian future that you vote for when you party vote Act. Let’s all go dance in the minefield less trodden.

Most crypto is a scam ,,,, ie Trumps pump & dump crypto coins which have lost over 95% of their value after Trump scammed his followers and made off with billions .
But 98% of our money is now created by our commercial banks and it exists only on their computer hard drives ,,,,, so not much different.
And as our banks create our money they also get to decide who gets it and where it is spent / invested …..
….. Thats why ( according to the reserve bank )
total value of nz’s housing stock march 2000 — $229 Billion
total value of nz’s housing stock march 2022 — $1723 Billion ( peak )
total value of nz’s housing stock march 2026 — $1666 Billion
Unless this 98% figure for our money creation bankers scam is changed it will matter sweet fuck all which Government you elect …..
….and for those who are wondering
Total number of New Zealands dwellings / housing stock
2001 Census: 1,526,542 total dwellings (comprising 1,478,709 occupied and 172,836 unoccupied).2023 Census: 2,056,578 total dwellings.
So the ACT party are being hugely sponsored [bribed] by some mega wealthy people. I guess it’s because their policies are only designed for the wealthy and are certainly not for NZ and all of its people! This shows us that there are so many greedy, shallow, wealthy out there who still want MORE! Seymour is so out of touch with reality and how families live. NZ must NOT be PRIVATISED! It would be the end of our country. Please don’t vote ACT the party of Cryypto-bro privilege!
