The real difference between Labour & National’s Transport announcements today
…the fact that Jacinda, she can announce a nothing Transport policy that promises something a decade earlier than the 30 years away that National are offering and be greeted with cheering crowds is the difference.

Jacinda’s first announcement ‘Let’s do the bleeding obvious’ – where the Greens must now move
Jacinda’s announcement is of course a wasted opportunity because all Labour are doing here is gentrifying the public transport system faster than National will. It’ll go down like a drunk in a brewery with the train spotter anorak club at Greater Auckland but if all Labour are offering is a gentrified public transport system so Simon Wilson doesn’t have to have smelly poor people rubbing up against his corduroy jacket it’s a wasted opportunity.

Dear Green supporters – remember this Treason – Metiria’s real crime was to force NZ to confront its neoliberal welfare cruelty
Look how many people the following image has reached on Facebook…

Dear Labour – We don’t need a new ‘Maori Prison’ we need less prisons!
Watching the Kelvin Davis and Jacinda tango on the weekend current affairs shows was insightful. While it’s nice to have a new tune to groove to, it is also horrifying that they are copying the exact same dance moves as National.

Metiria steps down for a ‘crime’ Key & English both committed

Metiria falls on her pen, not Mike Hosking’s sword
Thank God for that, Metiria is not falling on Mike Hosking’s or Patrick Gower’s sword and resigning, she has fallen on her pen and ruled herself out from a Ministerial role in the next Government.

By calling on Metiria to resign over petty things 2 decades ago, Mike Hosking has ruled himself out from hosting TVNZ debates
His bitterness that despite all his stomping and screaming over Metiria amounted to the Greens going higher than they ever have before in the polls has created a Hosking even more bitter and venomous than usual.

The extraordinary double standards being used against Metiria
The double standards of journalism on display here attacking Metiria for events 2 decades old when we have actual abuses of real political power sitting naked without any investigation by the Newshub says more about the kind of ethically bankrupt watchdogs running that news service than it does about Metiria.
