Critical analysis breaking down New Zealand news coverage, media framing, and political narratives behind the headlines.
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.
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.

Luckily for the Government they have a wedding to plan and the middle classes attention will quickly slip away from their egalitarian pretensions to what wedding dress designer Jacinda will be wearing.
The Left have looked to the state as the great leveller of Capitalism’s inequalities and with so many vocal left twitter union voices working inside those very same public services in Wellington, the point blank refusal to recognise and challenge this is conveniently ignored by those who are paid by those same agencies. What is required is a purge within the public services and Politicians with the courage to stand up to the bureaucrats alongside a political agenda to truly reform the State Services Act. We could start with every Māori Politician releasing the full uncensored Māori Mental Health report and daring the public service to fine them $10 000.
If Kaupapa Māori means supporting draconian welfare reforms, needlessly drug testing beneficiaries, forcing contraception and pissing $120m against the wall while throwing 1000 state tenants into the street for meth hysteria, then Paula Bennett is Maui’s sister!
After another week of breathless mainstream media breaking gossip masquerading as news, Simon Bridges is still the leader and Judith Collins has not made her move.
So what is actually going on?
So I will just arrive at the Court at the Human Rights Review Tribunal, make my submission and then just sit outside the door while the Star Chamber makes its decision? Where the hell is the justice and holding the powerful to account in that?
Of course we don’t want to promote hate speech, of course we want to protect brothers and sisters from minority communities from abuse. It sickens me to see those with little power denigrated, but be careful what we build here.
