After one select committee, National's bill has gone from a U16 ban to mass internet censorship
We have a front row seat to where this ends. The UK arrests 12,000/year for social media posts. People marching in the streets against immigration policies they can't protest online.
Proposed bill expansion:
⚠️A new independent internet regulator with power to create binding rules without going back to Parliament
⚠️Force platforms to hand over proprietary algorithm designs to the regulator
⚠️Regulate recommendation systems
⚠️Explore restricting VPN use
⚠️A catch-all recommendation to "consider further matters" and task them to the regulator - the blank cheque
Luxon on Ron Mark: "Maybe he's trying to COSPLAY..."
Also Luxon:
"Can you rule out someone like that becoming Defence Minister".
Legacy media, chock full of DEI hires itself, is unhappy with NZ First candidate Ron Mark's criticism of DEI in the Defence Forces.
Ron Marks is right, but he gets no back up from National leader Chris Luxon, who accuses him of "cosplaying Pete Hegseth".
Of course one of the best things NZ could do for defence is sack all of the current hierarchy and replace them with Mr Hegseth. (US Secretary of War).
As he's not available, it sounds like Ron Marks would be a suitable replacement.
The damn fools in charge of the $200 million dollar Manawanui and who were sailing it that afternoon were unqualified and unbelievably, had no idea how to release an engaged auto-pilot.
The National party (and especially Luxon's) own woke commitment to DEI is why they continue to support this insanity.
IMHO there should have been a lot more Defence force staff charged over this incident.
The DEI that caused it was driven right from the top.
But perhaps the best part of this clip is Luxon's pride in greeting the crew just off the sunk Manawanui 'thanking them for what they do'.
Great point as well

That's a relief miss Johnson.
I could have sworn we flood our job market with 3rd world migration.
And that our leaders cosplay as third worlders to appease ethnic voting blocks they created.
And that Kiwis were leaving because their birthright was handed to the third world.
When Wong said her own parents must choose between their savings, leaving an inheritance or their home under Op's Land Tax, she spoke on behalf of a party who listed her job on Seek.
OPP leadership change is just a Seek ad away. Perhaps her parents understand: "just my job, Mum"
Qiulae Wong admits Opportunity’s “70% of New Zealanders better off” claim under their LVT, doesn’t include the equity people lose from the 10–15% house price drop.
She defends this by saying: “We’ve looked at the modelling that takes house prices down by 10-15%, but then they will increase again over time.
But their own policy says: “We project that a 1.75% annual Land Value Tax on residential and commercial land would cause a 10-15% reduction in property prices… Yes, That’s the point.”
The whole point of the Opportunity’s policy is to permanently lower house prices, so Wong now treating the equity loss as just temporary is farcical.

If you thought it was impossible to hate @chrisluxonmp and his insane Indian FTA deal any more than you already do...
Just watch this.
Both @NZNationalParty and @nzlabour have betrayed New Zealand on a scale once thought impossible.

Tyrannical Ecstasy: National and Labour overwhelmed with desire as their joint resolution to censor those who grant them power draws near.
When our major 'opposed' parties have identical policies, choice is a lie.
Ending the Uniparty is a win regardless if you're left or right
Note the "National goes it alone" headline. National always intended to invoke the Grand Coalition to bypass any objection from any coalition partners standing up for free speech and the right to anonymous dissent.

“We’ll join Australia in introducing a new ‘Digital Duty of Care’ law” said Labour’s Reuben Davidson, yesterday.
Australia’s first draft gave the minister power to decide what counts as harm. It was dropped after warnings it could be used for political censorship. Labour’s version, announced yesterday, makes platforms protect Kiwis from “harmful content”, with a regulator to fine them if they don’t.
"Harmful" isn’t defined at any point, and the vague and subjective concept of online "harm" has been one of the key tools of censorious governments across the West.
Labour hasn’t told us who decides what is "harmful" here, but based on the "podium of truth", we aren't holding our breath.

ACT 2025: Free speech is the foundation of democracy.
ACT 2026: There are limits to free speech because religion.
Q. for @Parmjeet_Parmar
The State of Punjab gave you an award in 2019.
In April they made it a crime, punishable by up to 20 years, to blasphemy Sikh scripture.
In light of your actions against Tamaki, do you denounce their attack on free speech?
ACT voters deserve to know.
Western democracies have abolished blasphemy laws. Do you intend to bring India, Pakistan and Iran-style speech censorship to New Zealand? Or do you uphold freedom of speech even if it deeply offends a religion?
2019: Punjab’s then-government honoured hundreds, including National MPs Parmjeet Parmar (now ACT) and Kanwaljit Bakshi, for Sikh founder Guru Nanak’s 550th anniversary.
April 2026: Punjab passed a blasphemy law: up to 20yrs for sacrilege against Sikh scripture; life for “conspiracy to disrupt communal harmony.”
June 2026: Parmar asked NZ Police to investigate Brian Tamaki’s response to church burnings. His point: Christians don’t retaliate. Imagine if they did. Religion, not race.
Today: Tamaki is due in court on three counts of inciting RACIAL disharmony. Up to 3 months’ jail or $7k each.
My view: prosecuting speech about religion is a blasphemy law by another name.
