Gutting one of NZs biggest suicide counselling lines at a time of spiking suicide to give the contract to Bill English’s wife isn’t just ‘bad optics’ it’s a lack of perspective that screams arrogance at such a frequency that it shatters the eyeballs in their sockets.
…if it’s a rockstar economy, it’s an acoustic performance on invisible guitars.
The Media’s current ‘what if Jacinda is PM & gets pregnant’ is only a step away from ‘What happens if she has a period while PM’. Is this the fucking 21st Century or not?
