On NRT: ACT supports slavery - https://norightturn.blogspot.com/2026/01/act-supports-slavery.html
"A former ACT leader has also written in support of historic chattel slavery - with whips and chains and rapes and murders ..."

Wow. Rodney Hide has gone full Lindsay Perigo.

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.
If you'd like to make a submission on the bill, there are 27 days left to do that.

@RHW I think a few of their voters might react the same way
Is it really that bad a thing if it means locking in some policy wins though?
As long as it didn't mean selling out on anything too negative
Yes, any possible infiltration of Libs into ACT again is appalling. They hsve done so much damage and still could. Totally committed to promoting big business and favoured contractors and dreadful at managing money. You worry about Barr and development, that's nothing to what Libs could influence.
I have always been Labor first Greens second for forty years, and had faith in #ACTLabor because have seen good community/social service provision work from them.
In addition Barr is not perfect but I will never ever forget how he and Rachael Stephen Smith kept #ACT safe & organised through #COVID.
We had the careless hopeless #NSW w Gladys dominated by her idiot Health Minister all around us letting infection spread to Vic and beyond at the very start from cruise ships, funerals and an Eastern suburbs birthday party. The vile #Morrison going off to the footy and trying to appease coffee shops etc.
Our Labor closed borders and locked us down tight and worked v hard w the other Labor led states to stop Morrison opening up too soon, in spite of ridiculous opposition.
#ACTLabor fought for our vaccinations to be supplied and made testing centres available all around city.
If I remember rightly ACT and WA came off lightly icases and fatalities compared w everywhere else.
OK bit of rant but I was v vulnerable and feel strongly about this and won't forget.
Lately #AUKUS and Albo weakness has shaken me to reconsider first allegiance to go Green/Ind.
Greens lost two of best last election, Emma Davidson and Rebecca Vassarotti. They deserve to be reelected and Greens should work on that.
I trust Greens to stand strong on environment and social issues, they have had major good influence on Labor while it was coalition. Shane Rattenbury v good on community housing and brought a lot of balance. I would like to see a good spread of #Labor #Green and #Inds in ACT and not a Lib in sight. Have you all forgotten Kate Carnell?
did your paycheck increase when brown people were mass murdered or deported or when resources were stolen?

"The leader of the party of consumers and taxpayers argued against a measure to increase competition and lower prices because it might upset incumbent capital. In that single statement, the party’s modern priority was laid bare: protecting established businesses now trumps the creation of competitive markets for consumers. The 'consumer' in the party’s name has been forgotten entirely."
#BryceEdwards, 2026
"I wonder how long it will be before they [the government of the day] go apeshit and use it to open another front in their racist hate campaign against Māori? And will ACT, who back in 2003 claimed to be the "party of property rights" and opposed retrospective expropriation, support or oppose a racist law change?"

Exactly what I've been wondering, get out my head! : P
"... an action-oriented approach to psychotherapy that stems from traditional behavior therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. Clients learn to stop avoiding, denying, and struggling with their inner emotions and, instead, accept that these deeper feelings are appropriate responses to certain situations that should not prevent them from moving forward in their lives."

Link at end, but If any voice actors wanna build up their portfolio, I'd love to make more of my later blog posts into audio! I already have a narrator recording, On the Architectural Hostility of Doorknobs, but I am unable to pay for future audio for a while, but I'd still want my podcast to get some love too! If you can record pro bono, get in touch! I'd be happy to provide a link to your resume, let you record an intro or outro saying you're always looking to narrate, anything! https://sightlessscribbles.com/posts/#VoiceOver#Actor#Act#Narrator#Podcast#Podcasts
