An alpine pasture full of crocuses (probably colchicum montana rather than proper crocuses) with the peaks of big and little astazu in the background (little astazu appearing to be higher from this viewpoint).

Report: Francesca Albanese says it is “absolutely urgent to establish an international protection presence in the occupied West Bank, East Jerusalem & Gaza."
"Third states have an obligation, per the ICJ, to act to end Israel’s unlawful occupation."
The UN's 'Uniting for Peace' mechanism allows the General Assembly to step in "when the Security Council is unable to act due to a lack of unanimity."

A flock of geese at moonlight.
Similarly - following the line of their UK parent group - SEG try to spin the Greens as being pro-war. A party for whom non-violence is one of their 4 core values;
https://www.greens.org.nz/charter
They claim that;
"The party backed the US-NATO war against Ukraine"
https://community.scoop.co.nz/2026/03/new-zealand-government-backs-criminal-war-against-iran/
That sentence is, in itself, a pretty impressive example of Naomi Klein's Mirror World. But here are some examples of what Greens actually said about Ukraine;
(7/?)
Side note:
FYI Green members, the reason I had to resort to archive.org links is that as well as being a baffling choice for all the obvious reasons;
... NationBlinder is crap at keeping your history alive on your own website. Web searches involving the Greens routinely serve up broken links to Greens.org.nz. Many pointing to pages published only a few years ago, but now pushed down the Memory Hole. You really need to get on top of this.

@alexchapman Sorry y'all had to remove some of the voice -tag support from Lions for now. Don't have the energy to investigate the issue - issue number 6 and the 1.0.2 release both explain what's going on, if any of y'all do figure out what's breaking there (as clearly the engine isn't removing the parsing) - huge help and you can fork +PR if you come across it. Else I'll pick it up after work when I (A) have more energy and (B) can read all the complaint mentions about things without it feeling as personal Which usually happens after a recharge, not pushing myself above midnight each night on work ones. 😁 Appreciate y'all and comments. @x0 @amir
Just discovered these absolutely batshit insane books by Janet Morris, a defense and psyops expert who spent her free time writing military fantasy smut that apparently sold millions of copies in the 70s and 80s. Now they are only available as print-on-demand. These original covers ... OMG WTF https://www.blackgate.com/2016/03/19/vintage-treasures-the-silistra-quartet-by-janet-morris/

Versions of this legislation already failed in Australia, failed in the UK, so of course Luxon wants to do it and have it fail here too. 🙄
