Climate Change and Environment outside Cabinet as planet melts
As the Hard Right Racist Government settles in, the values are glaring and venal.
As the planet melts with temperatures 6 sigma above normal, the new Hard Right Racist Government has Climate Change and the Environment outside Cabinet while Racing and Resources are inside Cabinet.
The corporate farmers will be laughing all the way to the bank.
I have argued this Government will make Climate Change far worse, but even I was surprised at the venality of it all.
Tobacco deaths for tax cuts.
Boasting of 8000 job cuts before Christmas.
Cutting $555million from poor families.
God defend NZ, because the voters sure as fuck didn’t

We can do with some of that melting, its been pretty cool lately, for this time of year. Otherwise, blame Labour for being so unappealing that it allowed this current monstrosity to find its way in.
Blame the voters themselves for failing to read the signs and listen properly. Greed won.
Labour has its faults, there’s no doubt, but at least they tried to see the best in people and assumed, wrongly, that the electorate had a certain amount of brain and a good memory.
Yeah that is all the right have to parrot about – how many jobs they can cut, how many public services (that they don’t and would never use anyway) they can cut and how much funding they can redirect from public to the private sphere.
Well done kiwi voters – you did this!
Yes, Bob people have been screwed and to boost about people losing their jobs before Xmas is downright nasty.
Climate change was outside cabinet under Labour as well.
James Shaw as the Minister of Climate change was pretty much gelded by the Labour Party who wouldn’t even let him have an associate climate minister, the only ministerial post without an associate. James Shaw spent his whole lonely term as Minister outside of cabinet trying to get a multiparty consensus on climate change with the Labour and National parties, only to have the Nact-NZF coalition government rip up this consensus agreement for shit paper as their first order of business as soon as gaining power.
