Are we surprised by @actparty MP McKee and her wish to allow anyone to own machine guns? Not really. Monkeys will dance to whoever is paying the organ grinder.

It is a bit rich for Nicola Willis to complain about Labour's alleged deficit of $18.2 billion when her Government has increased debt by $26.9 billion in the past three years.

Pants on fire, again!
Labour has an $18.2 billion hidden bill, and it has your name on it.

#BHN Nicola Willis was very hesitant to disclose even which sector this mystery "future cost", found in Budget 2026, related to. If it's for transport we could have shrugged it off as related to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, but the ferries do also come to mind.

I had a big chat to the chief electoral officer about: - How they are preparing for the radically shortened enrolment period - Why they still think special votes are going up - Why the counting will still take the same as last time

Winston has blocked me so can't comment directly. His post reminds me of Trump. There is no hope for either of them.

It's very interesting how you're using a crystal ball to find out Labour's as yet unspecified budget details. Can you see your future in this ball? #NationalFail #DitchThePricksin26

Just another datapoint to show the mess we're in. Worse economy in 22 years. Meanwhile, the red lot have announced some minor policy thingy and the blue lot are working out how to extract votes from climate change denial. Looking at you, Mooney.
