Left-wing coalition agreement that sees Marama Davidson as PM, but allows OPP to veto anything too woke

What they dont say about voting two ticks is that its kind of boring but thats okay because the Greens are goated. #voted

If Luxon decides to work with TOP can we all stage a protest as angry National supporters that are upset with this broken promise right off the bat?

Its funny the people who complain most about immigrants are also the ones who complain most regarding taking action against climate change.

No music transports me to another dimension the way Andrew Prahlow's The Lost Reels does. Particularly River's End Times. Also, play Outer Wilds if you haven't.

Holy shit apparently dislocating your knee, tearing a crucial ligament, and probably needing surgery isnt classed as an accident under ACC so my claim might not be accepted. Thought this government was a fan of common sense or something

this might end up being one of the worst disenfranchisements in modern NZ history, and zero established institutions - particularly media - did enough to raise awareness or effectively wield power to stop it an indictment of every single mainstream leader in the country, frankly
