TWITTERWATCH: Chris Bishop terrified by what real leadership looks like

Just when you didn’t think Chris Bishop could be more off a toxic prick, here he is shitting on Jacinda’s decision to pull out of a writers festival that had banned a Palestinian writer.
You’d think after shitting on Stan Walker that Chris would stick to bashing the homeless, lying about renting from his in-laws and taking photos with his dog in a desperate attempt to not look like the tobacco lobbyist arsehole that he is, yet here he is again attacking Jacinda.
It’s all a bit too much Chris Bishop isn’t it? Even the National Caucus who are a cluster fuck of toxic pricks couldn’t tolerate him being leader.
Let’s all hope Chris gets the bash he deserves when he loses Hutt South now the boundaries have been redrawn. Will Labour supporters in Newlands think shitting on Jacinda is a vote winner?

Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.







This is a brief but well deserved discrimination of Bishop. I can’t think of any redeeming features about him and I generally try to think that there’s some good in all people.
“Description” predictive text got me again.
Yes, Bonnie. The only good thing I can think of is that he should be gone after the next election.
I hope he’s buying his own house now because once he loses his overpaid job in parliament, he’ll be toast.
They all laugh and say it’s so funny that Jacinda cannot live in NZ now and don’t realise, they will be in the same boat soon.
What does an amateur ex-tobacco lobbyist have to offer? They think foreigners will not have heard of the terrific mess they are making…not likely.
Bishop, with the nasty ‘run-away mouth, will never be PM of NZ as he lacks basic self-control. Of course he is also misogynistic and a bully so is comforable attacking Jacinda over a classy act on her behalf. Jacinda is 100 x the person he could never hope to be and super intelligent to boot – he is simply another jealous, frustrated CoC-up clone. Keep it up Bishop your mob is kaput.
Bishop behaves like a Jealous Temper Tantrum Spoilt child throwing his toys out of his playpen.
It is indeed tiresome that such a Lowlife is on such a great pay packet whilst manipulating funding for His Own Intents and Purposes.
We don’t live in the Bishop electorate and I wouldn’t vote for the Arrogant Prick if he was the Last MP on the planet.
I am getting the impression with the way National, ACT and NZ First MPs call Labour, The Greens and TPM MPs that they are doing a Copy and Paste of the Madman Donald Trump.
I guess Bishop will never learn but lets watch him demean himself even further with his Words and Actions.
Too much of an opportunity for Bishop to let slide. A chance to disparage Ardern while also platforming his pro-Israel stance.
Sadly, Bishop will probably be one of those political-lifers who never seem to leave. In the mold of Brownlee and Collins, we will get to watch him bloat with age while becoming endlessly smug.
Do not underestimate the Israeli lobby group that likely led to this decision (imo all politicians are mere puppets of larger interests that are often way beyond our comprehension). I expect Bishop will be promoted in the the next National Government (they will win). People here clearly have no idea what is going on behind the scenes.
Tell us.
Vice signaling – Bishop is so hollow you hear dumbed down echoes of previous National failures.
Bishop shocked that people have principals that can’t be bought and sold is an apt description.
Indeed. But what sort of principal can be bought and sold? Only a principal with no principles.
Yes, phones frequently autocorrect things incorrectly. I’m not the first and won’t be the last.
How’s it going pro-rape Pope.
Eyeing any rapey opportunities for the new year? Maybe you could go join ICE so you can kidnap and rape some momacita’s
Because as we know, the only difference between those who support rape and actual rapists is opportunity.
By the way edgelord, whenever you post a comment I’ll be right there to remind everyone you approve of rape.
I do hope you personally experience sexual assault given you’re such a fan.
Cinder you sound very confused.
Principles surely Cinder?
Bishop will be crushed in the coming electoral landslide
One is well regarded around the world and the other, Bishop, is hardly known outside of Wellington. Pretty much sums it up for me. Oops I forgot, Bishop is also pro cancer sticks.
It hurts me to agree but this is the second time Bishop has let himself down. Jacinda has every right to protest
FYI. Al Jeezra
‘ Which countries made the biggest deals with Israel in 2025? ‘

Xero, the NZ-based accounting software giant, acquired US B2B payments platform Melio in a major deal around June 2025, aiming to integrate payments directly into its accounting software for US small-to-medium businesses (SMBs) to boost its North American presence and create a seamless, end-to-end financial platform, combining Xero’s bookkeeping with Melio’s accounts payable/receivable tools for cash flow management. This strategic acquisition, valued at up to $3 billion, helps Xero compete in the US market and aims to double its revenue by 2028 by unifying accounting and payments on a single platform, making bill payments easier and more controlled for businesses, say sources like RNZ,
Oh how good would NZ be right now if Jacinda was PM .im SURE she would know all of the bottom feeders by first name and we would be able to count them on one hand .
The JA fanboys are in full flight here on TDB.
Ada, the jealous anti powerful women type is out in full force on TDB, your tall poppy shines through.
So fucking what you moron
You get so angry when your cult is questioned.
Yet you are quite content with your own cult Ada.
Another delightful comment.
Glad the algorithms you run on are so delighted with honest comments btf
It’s all Derek has.
To true .I am sure they think she could walk on water.
Well at least she probably knows where to put a full stop Trevori.
Meanwhile under Luxon we are all drowning, we could do with Jacinda back walking on water.
Why do you bother to come here you ignoramus
” To true .I am sure they think she could walk on water ”
Nope Key tried to walk across the Waitemata and unfortunately the dumb, easily led and stupid recued him.
The Zionists pushed / demanded and succeeded in getting a Palestinian woman author banned from this writers festival… because of what murderous ISIS freaks did in Bondi ….
Zionist lobby groups also ‘succeeded’ in getting the Sydney Morning Herald to pull / delete this opinion piece which expressed compassion and empathy towards the Bondi beach victims two days after they initially published it on DEC 23rd.
https://www.deepcutnews.com/p/ahmed-ouf-i-went-to-bondi-and-hugged
“The Sydney Morning Herald deleted the article after receiving complaints from the Australian Jewish Association, an act of professional malpractice and moral cowardice to be sure.
Why did the newspaper attract the outrage of Zionist organizations for publishing an opinion piece written by a Muslim political leader visiting Bondi Beach to promote peace and inter-faith solidarity?
Because Zionist organizations are fundamentally opposed to any news headline or report that humanizes Muslims, Arabs, and Palestinians – because the Zionist occupation of Palestine depends on Western support, which can only be attained by the constant vilification of Muslims, Arabs, and Palestinians.”

“While Netanyahu and the Israeli government push a narrative of fear to justify their actions, ordinary Muslims in the West are proving them wrong every day. In this episode, we debunk the lies with facts, showing how Muslim immigrants are protecting their communities in Australia, the UK, and Germany.”

When the next pandemic strikes who would you want to have yours’s and your family’s back ?
Bishop and the current deplorables or Ardern ?
I will never fault her in how she managed the enormous crises that her government was faced with.
She could have governed for three terms if she and her government had distanced themselves from the economic pandemic we have been enduring for four decades. If only she had shown the same resolute courage and tenacity to undertake real reform and OWN the narrative. She would have killed off the threat we are now facing from this cruel regime and its enablers who are laying waste to the country we love.
If ….only.
Hooo Boy, the Jacindaciples are out in full force!
She’s in Kraut’s head, she’s in your head, Zombie Krautet.
Bahahahaha.
Lip service for the neediest, Descibes that scumbag to the Tee. And Labour. The Dunedin Project said we had to look after the neediest first.!
Bishop being hailed as “politician of the year” by many.
The many fuckwits
” Bishop being hailed as “politician of the year” by many ”
Bloody awful year !
I think he, Bishop, is a thoroughly decent chap.
But you don’t think you perform tasks based on programmed instructions
