Bathrooms and Transgender students
We have so many bloody pressing issues on this planet, preventing people from using the bathroom they feel comfortable in is such a mean spirited petty bigotry.

Winston’s handling of this is to the right of the Labour Party so it’s an issue he has all to himself, but the simplicity of his solutions are just pantomime and make him look a bit daft rather than critical and stance taking.
…our racist justice system is destroying and hollowing out huge sections of Maori families and communities. Pora represents a system that has imploded upon itself due to its corrupted bias.
…this Government is desperately trying to keep a property bubble afloat to bribe a property speculating middle class while slashing public services for the most vulnerable amongst us.
The issue the mainstream media are refusing to focus upon is the simple bare faced truth that this wasn’t all some giant mistake and misunderstanding, this was the framing of an innocent man by the Police who knew he was innocent.
Bennett lies about the Salvation Army and now spreads vicious gossip about the Marae staff who are showing up her broken policies. National isnt fighting homelessness they’re fighting media attention of their inaction!
The compensation offered to Pora for locking him up for a crime he did not commit is pathetic because it doesn’t focus on the salient point which has been ignored throughout most of his case – the cops framed him!
The decision to raise the quota to 1000 refugees per year from the current 750 does nothing to redress the three decades of no increase to our refugee quota. It is a token gesture designed to mollify proponents for more resettlement and to be able to tell the general population that the government is “doing something”.
The hypocrisy aside – the ultimate danger of making this a culture war is that it convinces us that Muslims are somehow incompatible with our modern society and thus the only response is eradication. That is an incredibly dangerous mindset
The news that our Government will only increase our pitiful 750 refugees per year by a mere 250 to 1000 is an insult to their humanity and ours.
