Luxon Must Confirm No SAS To Iran War – Peace Action Wellington
If Australian SAS are already in the region, the question isn’t if — it’s whether New Zealand is next. And Luxon isn’t answering.

If Australian SAS are already in the region, the question isn’t if — it’s whether New Zealand is next. And Luxon isn’t answering.

From the heart of Auckland, the message was blunt: If New Zealand won’t speak out, what exactly does it stand for?

Fuel prices, iwi radio cuts, the fishing bill and a housing market locked against the young — this Election 2026 political podcast goes straight to the pressure points.

They’re caring for New Zealand’s most vulnerable — and paying for it themselves. Even after the increase, many say they’re still going backwards.

More than 50 beds gone. An ageing population rising. And nowhere for people to go except already stretched hospitals.

The warning signs are flashing — collapsing confidence, rising costs, and a government with no plan. This isn’t stabilising. It’s building.

Three days. That’s all it was. Now even that’s too much to ask from a system that never wants to switch off.

If it’s about safety, why no body cams? If it’s about protection, why does it feel like surveillance?

Auckland is told to grow — then blocked when it tries. Another housing cut, another reminder of who really holds the power.

Cut the funding, lose the signal. And when the next emergency hits, that silence won’t be theoretical — it’ll be dangerous.
