If we want to criticise Te Tii Marae, that’s fine, but let’s equally be as critical of those politicians who have sat on their hands and provided no leadership whatsoever.
The biggest winners of the half a billion National and Labour want to throw at cops will be the Private Prison Industry who will be licking their lips in anticipation at the thousands more destined for their cells.
Rather than examine their own short comings as a political movement and how their own neoliberal worship helped create Trump, American Liberals have descended into a shouting competition amongst themselves to see who can scream their anger the loudest.
…what’s most disgusting about all of this is two political leaders arguing over human beings who they have thrown aside like garbage.
Now our anti-intellectual messiah has gone, are New Zealanders really that bewilderingly dense to allow Trump to have this level of power over our economic, cultural and political sovereignty?
English kept trumpeting reduced welfare stats as if that was a great thing when we know that all these agencies have done is find reasons to disqualify beneficiaries from welfare, they have no idea where these people have gone, all they’ve done is successfully deny a benefit. That’s not a solution, that’s a recipe for disaster, but it was perhaps English’s solution that was most concerning, half a billion dollars to the bloody Police!
This is your chance to let the rest of New Zealand know as they enter the voting booths in 2017, that the punitive, spiteful and damaging social welfare policies of WINZ, Housing NZ, Corrections, Parole, Mental health, Ministry of Social Development and CYFs are crucifying the poorest and most vulnerable amongst us.
These are remarkable feats for a mainstream media who were enslaved and in the thrall of John Key, but with his leaving they have the ‘courage’ to finally start questioning the pantomime of policy promises that is the National Party.
The ever brilliant Marama Davidson has launched The Green Party policy on teaching te reo Maori in schools…
Americans have more to fear and are far more likely to die from choking on food, bicycling, accidental gunshots, their own police force, airplane and spaceship accidents, heat waves or animal attacks than they do from bloody terrorists. For the love of God, there’s more chance an American will be killed by a fucking asteroid than a refugee or illegal immigrant.
