Fiscal conservatives should be clamouring for cycleways

Bikes now get more people into Auckland’s city centre than ferries at a fraction of the cost.

Asian politicians on both sides of the aisle agree the debate over recent reports of excessive sea life gathering on New Zealand's foreshore should not focus on immigration.

Asian MPs want immigration left out of seafood gathering debate

Shane Jones said mass immigration was partly to blame for sea life gatherers allegedly stripping the Whangaparāoa Peninsula foreshore bare.

@Happyfishmedia So NZ First is willing to consider environmental conservation only if they can sprinkle it with some racism on top, huh.

The patron saint of NZ Gun Nuts Nicole McKee stuck her grubby thumb into the selection process for the Government’s firearms advisory group and squeezed in a couple of her own people.

Of course she did. How very Act of her.

Perhaps controversial opinion but I am fine with Luxon not returning to work yet. Or ever, to be quite honest.

May he wander into the sea and never ever be seen again.

Yes I know that the point is that he's a hypocrite who criticised regular people for taking a long break when they should be, in his opinion, back at work.

But we all know he's a hypocrite and will continue to be.

And between the gotcha moment and the respite from his face everyday announcing his terrible terrible decisions, I easily choose the second.
