New Zealand Politics

Perhaps Simon needs to get a new press secretary?

…Housing NZ are desperately trying to hide how much influence Methcon had over their policy, with OIAs lodged, it’s only a matter of time before the truth comes out, Phil Twyford should front foot this before it becomes made public. 

Jacinda at the UN with her infant baby Neve and her stay at home partner Clarke supporting her has done as much to build our image and lead on the global stage as much as universal suffrage, the 40 hour working week and nuclear free has done.

When Jacinda refused to take the word of her Māori Minister over that of a trigger free safe space millennial staffer, it was a signal like any other that Māori are never given the benefit of the doubt.

The manner in which the NZ mainstream media have attempted to whip the Jacinda-Handley interaction into a ‘jobs for the boys’ style scandal is embarrassing when you compare it to the previous relationship of Key and his appointment of his school mate Ian Fletcher to the GCSB.
