Precisely.
NDAs in sexual harassment cases only protect harassers — ban the bloody things 🤷‍♀️

Regular reminder that the 'shrink the state' ghouls (that get it) have a simple goal - to ensure that the few benefit most from the resources that belong to the many. The TPU run 'psy-ops'; plain and simple. They use lies and manipulation to turn the people against public and shared ownership.

Definitely both.
Not sure if Brooke van Velden’s final speech to Parliament consisting of a roomful of not-listening people too busy panicking about Nicky Hager’s book launch at the same time and then limited media coverage because of the focus on the book is *chef’s kiss* or poetic justice, but why not both 🤷🏻‍♀️

Felix Geiringer reporting live from the Hager’s Book Launch on the Taxpayer Onion 🧅
A reprehensible collection of oddities that have far too much influence.
I'm at Unity Bookshop Wellington for the Nicky Hager book launch. The event is not due to start until 6 pm, but the room is mostly full already and filling up fast.

Lolz a Parental Astroturf group.

Schools have Boards and often PTAs and of course you as a parent can absolutely go and knock on the door of the School Office and speak to the Principal.

Ridiculous premise.
Another Farrar involved lobby group this time to "counterbalance to teachers unions and principals associations when it comes to designing and advocating for education policy" which immediately makes the dodgy claims "no child should be held back due to fairness"

It is designed to counterbalance the teachers' unions and principals' associations.

Torrent of crap coming out of Jordan's mouth this morning on Q&A. I should not have started fact-checking, but here we go. Claim 1: The old '2nd largest fiscal response'.
Jordan is referring to an IMF report, which was adopted conveniently as gospel by NZ Treasury. Friends, it was bad. [🧵 1/n]

We really ought to sit with the fact that Verhoeven, three decades later, has to publicly say 'Guys, the one I made about the militarized society in nazi uniforms waging an expansionist total war against aliens they refuse to understand? It's about fascism' www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/general...
Paul Verhoeven on U.S. Space Force’s ‘Starship Troopers’-Inspired Uniforms: “It’s Based on Leni Riefenstahl”
The director of the 1997 sci-fi film, which has often been misunderstood, says the gung-ho soldiers who are its heroes "are fascists without knowing that they’re fascists. That’s the point.”

Auckland is a big service economy; it's stalled because there is not enough money flowing through it. There are tens of thousands of people ready to work, but not enough work for them. Low demand = low consumption = more stagnation. Luxon can't see it because he believes in magic markets. [🧵 1/n]

They are a complete waste of time and resources.

Those promoting this as a solution are being wilfully blind.
1 kid died in Nationa/ACT's Boot Camp trial. ALL re-offended & went back to the justice system.

Decades of research show boot camps don't work & makes crime worse. John Key's govt agreed. Yet this one continues to abuse urgency & ignore evidence, passing the law under urgency last night #nzpol
