If this is the year of delivery, do Labour, NZ First & the Greens understand the word delivery?
I have argued many times that this Government wasn’t expecting to win and so walked into Government with no actual plan of what the hell to do and how to reform the neoliberal public service enough to force change through. What we are seeing is a civil service fair more interested in doing nothing than being forced to do something and so work to water down any real reform so they can keep control of their fiefdoms, with many of the new Ministers unfamiliar with Executive power, they have been easily sidelined or manipulated into stagnation.

In terms of winner or loser? It was a draw, which sets up the fight as a two horse race, something Goff doesn’t want and Tamihere does.

If this Carbon Zero legislation was our generations ‘nuclear moment’, America just parked a nuclear ship next to David Lange’s grave and rolled all over him
This is less transformative and more glacial, except there won’t be any glaciers by 2050.

Listening to multimillionaire Mike Hosking’s thoughts on beneficiaries is like listening to Trump’s views on feminist folk music
A TALE OF TWO WALLS: It’s funny, the woke left on Twitter are screaming to boycott the NZ Herald because they have Rachel Stewart behind a paywall where as the class left like me are demanding they put Hosking, Soper & Hawkesby behind the Paywall!

TWITTER WATCH: Hamish Price & Simeon Brown are National Party Alt-Right Soy-Boys
How can we debate cannabis like rational adults when the National Party are so hell bent on being dickheads?

TWITTER WATCH: The lynching of Rachel Stewart
I’ve said it once, I’ll say it a thousand times, the woke would eat their own young if they weren’t so militantly vegan.

Yawn – Cannabis referendum is out and surprise surprise, it’s not binding
Looking at the way this Government gave up on a Capital Gains Tax, censored Māori voices in the mental health inquiry, denied Afghan witnesses to participate in our war crime whitewash and seemingly gave up on any meaningful welfare reform, my blackened jaded heart sees this as another window dressing exercise to look like progress is being made when sweet bugger all is actually being progressed.

If we wish to combat climate change, we must defeat neoliberal capitalism: Trade Crucifixions, Dairy as a sunset industry & Fortress Aotearoa
A climate changing world will descend into chaos, NZ will be one of the few lifeboats available, we need to rapidly adapt with foresight before we are forced to blindly adapt because of necessity.
