Critical analysis breaking down New Zealand news coverage, media framing, and political narratives behind the headlines.
…planning for a million Te Reo users in 2040 seems as meaningless as being carbon neutral by 2050 because our society won’t be worrying about who can speak Māori and who can’t, it will be a desperate fight for survival in an economy and culture that is scrambling to adapt.
…it is extraordinary that this story isn’t leading our news and the main focus of public debate.
Let me be perfectly clear to my fellow New Zealanders – you must, you must, you must boycott any and all local elections that use online voting. These systems are completely open to being hacked and once accepted means every election after that is a joke.
We need to acknowledge that anger and fear have shaped our prison industrial complex and by reframing the issue as a media generated hysteria, Little could bypass National using that same media to try and spread more hysteria.
Simon Bridges & Judith Collins have managed to make Trump’s victim blaming look like valid criticism.
Goff has been great at treating the symptoms of Auckland’s housing crisis, Tamihere however could focus on a cure.
We know now that Housing NZ were cruel and spiteful to their tenants, and we know that MSD and WINZ has a vicious reputation for treating beneficiaries with contempt so the NZ Government needs to assure the public that no child was taken off a state tenant because of this meth hysteria.
…Our watchdogs have no teeth or bark.
What a tragic symbolism for Māori women in the week of Suffrage 125.
So, 2400 tenants mercilessly thrown onto the street, $120m needlessly pissed against the wall, National use entire fiasco as cover for state housing privatisation while homelessness spikes, the mainstream media whip it up for ratings & not one fucking person is held accountable at Housing NZ because Labour are too gutless to annoy the PSA???
Welcome to fucking NZ.
