You simply need to look on TikTok and you’ll see hundreds of Greens voters acting like crazed maniacs crashing out. This is dangerous rhetoric from @NZGreens
This isn’t just a lie, it’s also woefully irresponsible for someone in her position to be promoting such inflammatory false conspiracies in the immediate aftermath of an election. It speaks to someone who lacks the necessary virtues for public office. #nzpol #NZElection2026

Ah this is a Jacinda Ardern trick
Vanessa Van Edwards on the hand trick manipulative people use to make you agree.
@vvanedwards
Urgh today’s TikTok highlight had me squirming & genuinely wondering how we, as a society, got to this bloody point.
When did personal responsibility give way to an expectation that government should solve every bloody problem, fund every need and somehow provide more without anyone asking how it will be paid for?
There is a growing tendency by many (mainly on the left) to interpret any decision that doesn’t benefit them personally as proof that the government is only working for the rich. They don’t actually understand the economic reality or they simply don’t care! Government spending is funded by taxpayers and borrowing. Debt carries a cost, and it doesn’t simply disappear.
New Zealand cannot keep expanding public spending and welfare commitments as though there are no limits. A safety net is essential for those who genuinely need support, but it must not be a substitute for personal responsibility, participation and self-reliance.
Somewhere along the way, the conversation has shifted from how we contribute to society to what society owes us. This constant poor me mentality, where blame replaces accountability and entitlement replaces aspiration, has become a contagion.
We need a serious conversation about what we can afford, what is sustainable and what kind of economy we want to leave the next generation.
Because the reality is simple you cannot keep spending money you haven’t got, accumulating debt and expecting future generations to pick up the tab.
Perhaps it’s time to move beyond the politics of grievance (hard for some when that’s all the Left push) and start talking about contribution, responsibility and building a country that can actually sustain itself.
The South Island saved the day for the Centre Right by voting strategically! Let’s cut the North free to become a communist hell hole!

Labour want to remove free speech Vote wisely people! Chris Hipkins is a disingenuous asshat
After months of silence on the matter, Hipkins has told a mosque congregation the day before the election that Labour will implement the Royal Commission recommendations the coalition dropped. Those include religious hate speech laws.
This screeching U-turn would bring back blasphemy laws to New Zealand under another name, 7 years after they were abolished.
Why leave it until the last day of the campaign? Because he knows fine well it wouldn’t have survived scrutiny.
If Labour form the next government and pursue this, we will fight them tooth and nail to defeat it, as we did last time.

Hey Trevor nobody likes you, can you please F off back into the shadows you creepy prick!!
Very slow and lacking style, 40 years after I previously held a handpiece, but a much better shearing job than the hapless Prime Minister whose shearing coordination is nearly as bad as his Cabinet coordination.

Andrea Vance is hell bent on trying to get the Left into power and will do anything underhanded to get them there! She is vulgar! Oh and she resembles Edna from Incredibles
This lady Kayla Kingdon-Bedd is NOT a New Zealander, She is CANADIAN so thus should have NO RIGHT to stand for NZ politics
Yet Andrea Vance is having a Meltdown at Michael Laws over what she perceives as "hurty words" said about KKB
Andrea Vance is a fruitloop

The great renewable energy debate. Time for a little honesty
I’m increasingly f’ked off the way politicians talk about renewable energy as though we can simply flick a switch, abandon fossil fuels and carry on as normal.
Let’s look at reality.
Fifty years ago, the world was overwhelmingly reliant on fossil fuels. Today, despite decades of investment, innovation, subsidies and political promises, fossil fuels still supply around 80% of global energy.
And anyone who thinks we’ll be completely independent of them in another 50 years needs to take a serious look at how the modern world actually functions or simply be bloody honest!! (I know tough for bullshit artists)
Fossil fuels underpin virtually every aspect of modern civilisation. Transport, aviation, shipping, agriculture, manufacturing, construction, mining, fertiliser production, plastics and the supply chains that keep our supermarkets stocked.
Renewable energy absolutely has a place in our future. But it is not a magic solution, and pretending otherwise is doing the public a disservice.
Wind and solar don’t operate on demand. They require reliable backup, storage, transmission infrastructure and substantial investment to keep electricity flowing when the sun isn’t shining and the wind isn’t blowing.
And who ultimately pays for all this? Households, farmers, manufacturers and small businesses.
We’re already seeing the pressure of rising energy and infrastructure costs. Families are struggling with power bills, businesses are struggling with operating costs and energy-intensive industries are questioning whether they can afford to keep operating here.
What pisses me off the most is the lack of honest conversation about the economics.
You cannot continually push up the cost of energy, impose increasingly ambitious targets and expect ordinary people and businesses to absorb the consequences without affecting their standard of living, productivity and competitiveness.
By all means, invest in cleaner technology. Improve efficiency. Develop better storage. Make use of our natural resources.
But do it with a realistic plan, reliable energy supply and an honest assessment of the costs.
Energy policy should be about keeping energy affordable, reliable and accessible not winning a political popularity contest by announcing the most ambitious green targets.
The environment matters. But so does economic survival. And pretending we can have one without properly considering the other isn’t responsible leadership.
Opportunity Party just released a video where they reckon we need investment into 'renewable energy, NOT oil and gas'.
Given that the campaign van is a diesel, I guess they'll be going EV or bicycle some time soon, yes?
Green agenda: Shutting down the economy since ages ago.
ALT Opportunity Party says NO to oil and gas.

It’s getting heated. Yesterday post placard waving a young adult full facialed mataora ( facial tatoo) Māori male in the company of 2 other bystanders adult youths (1 male 1 female) yelled abuse at some members of my team and then later on departure targetted abuse at me (like a car did on 28/10 driving straight at me) yelling straight at me - derogatory names (not to be repeated) & kūpapa/ traitor/loyalist. Meant to hurt my feelings. Never! The all of 18-19yo tried to intimidate me. Straight at me, straight up. I stood my ground emphasising at him with pointed finger at his mataora(facial tatoo) that it means NOTHING when he abuses a person, and me as an older woman-a kuia (just because I was identified as the NZFirst candidate & yelled at as kūpapa). I’m fearless. A trait I learnt as a young Māori woman. Then trained as a lawyer- a fearless advocate. And more fearless now as an older woman. These kids think that branding themselves with moko/tatoos makes them more Māori than me. Then yelling names and abuse at me as stand over tactics. Never! They don’t know who they are dealing with. I will not be intimidated. We’re on a mission. On the home stretch. Stay safe out there everyone.
