English first, purging the Treaty & defining a woman – this is Right Wing culture war performance art garbage, they are NOT solutions
Look at the culture war revenge fantasies that this Government are currently wasting their time pursuing while the rest of us suffer the pain of their economic vandalism:
- Law demanding English before Māori.
- Law defining what a woman is.
- Law removing all mentions of the Treaty
THESE ARE NOT SOLUTIONS TO ANYTHING!
They are Right Wing culture war performance art garbage for their highly polarised redneck voting block.
This is the very worst and most ugly of politics.
While National, ACT and NZF rush around to appease their fringe racist voters, the majority of Kiwis are turning away in disgust and that is why Labour leads all the issues now…
New poll has Labour leading National on most important issues, including economy
Labour is considered the party most capable of addressing the five most important issues facing New Zealanders, reclaiming authority from National on managing the economy.
The latest Ipsos Issues Monitor survey, which polled 1002 people, shows Labour is trusted to manage the top-five issues: inflation/cost of living, health, the economy, housing and unemployment.
In its previous survey in May, National was considered the most capable to manage the economy but lost to Labour on the other four.
Of the 20 issues included in the survey, Labour was considered the most capable for 16 of them. The only issue National was considered more capable than Labour was crime, although the two parties were considered equally capable of managing defence/foreign affairs.

…all National, ACT and NZF are good for is implementing their donors interests while distracting everyone with culture war revenge fantasises as policy.
They manipulate their base’s bigotry while passing law for big polluters, the billionaires, the property pimps and the exploiters.
I believe we are a better people than the Right believe we are.
I believe the majority are against this malice and spite and corporate abasement.
We are a free egalitarian people who share the harvest of civil society and who believe in the common good.
This election either cements 19th century white settler privilege into place or builds a NZ that is bigger than that.
Stand with the people, don’t stand with the bigots!
Our mana as a nation demands more than book burning gumboot fascism and the celebration of gleeful ignorance.

Im sure every single maori will stop using Te Reo now .Fuck off why would they do that just because the potato maori has demanded english now becomes nzs second language .
Winston slurs English and can’t speak Te Reo but does cigarettes, whiskey and racism expertly.
Thomas Gray’s 1742 poem [Ode on a Distant Prospect of Eton College] containing the saying “ignorance is bliss”, means if you do not know about a bad or hard thing, you will not worry about it. He didn’t recommend this, he simply pointed it out since less information can stop stress and worry. However real life and wisdom require facing hard facts – like the truth! NZ has a current govt. who are hell bent on a cruel racism towards their indigenous Maori as well as a hatred for the poor as if they became poor through choice!? Our needy have been held under water for so long, they have become accustomed to being treated as – Luxon’s terminology – “bottom feeders” so they no longer react. How anyone voting for or supporting this CoC can call themselves a Christian is ludicrous. They have not one Christian bone in their bodies and should be ashamed to even go into a church! Hard to believe NZ has so many ‘ugly’ people.
Not solutions to anything? And what problems were solved by the previous government’s policies of:
– Promoting matauranga as “co-equal” with science?
– Allowing local councils to impose Maori wards without a referendum?
– Stuffing ideology into school curricula and school governance?
– Putting an activist body (PATHA) in charge of healthcare guidelines for gender-dysphoric kids?
So Pope what is telling someone, who has been here 30 odd years and grew up here, to go back to their own country a solution to? Stuffing ideology into schools is what we have now, and it’s packaged in some bullshit about us all being the same
I never said it was. How about answering the questions I asked? And would you care to identify the “ideology” that is now being “stuffed into schools”? Examples? A knowledge-rich curriculum isn’t ideology.
