Every time you think this embarrassing coalition has hit the bottom of the barrel, they prove you wrong by saying or doing something even more desperate and stupid.
They already gutted a section of the civil service to pay for their pointless tax cuts, now they're declaring that they'll cut even further to keep a dyspeptic elderly drunk happy as he attempts to copy the kind of idiotic nonsense currently destroying America and keep himself in the headlines.
'Tilting at windmills' is the activity we're seeing here. We deserve better.
The right wing, white male govt regime is paranoid about anything that represents "other". Viz: not right wing white and male. Hence they are busy othering as many sectors as they can. It's divisive, narrow minded and mean spirited. But what else would you expect from them?
Hell would freeze over before they actually got on and did the job they were elected to do .
Signaling anti-'wokeism' is a diversion pure and simple, so that citizens are so busy distrusting each other that they don't notice the Luxons, and the Seymours and diverting resources to the wealthiest of the wealthy. This leaning towards trumpism is very bad for NZ and cannot be tolerated.
Will pay for WCC to ask mana whenua for their views on fencing off the Wellington waterfront. Traditional access to the harbour is already hugely impeded by the port and other infrastructure. Adding this perspective into the mix would be interesting.
👍💪 Proud to be "WOKE" and therefore awake to the bull💩 Peters & Luxon are throwing out to distract us from the disaster that is the 3-headed-Taniwha 🤬 If we applied "meritocracy" to just those two, they wouldn't even get an interview, so it's a bit rich being against DEI when it applies to them - Peters because he's Maori & his followers can therefore excuse his & their racist policies & utterances because "well he's Maori, so it can't be racist" - Luxon because he "used to run an airline" so MUST know how to run things without 🤬 everyone off while getting a good "profit" for corporation Aotearoa (sorry... New Zealand) Inc. 🤮🤮🤮
What does woke mean. Well part of the appeal of using the word is that no-one knows, but the coalition seem to be using it to descibe decisions based on political or social ideas rather than evidence. Of course evidence is that diversity in a workforce creates more ideas, better work conditions and more consumer awareness.
Possible the most "woke" decision in the last few days has been the change in bowel screening away from those that evidence shows are mucj more likely to contract the disease to ... well everyone. Mertocracy in bowel screening? This would be like changing breast cancer screening to men and women. Sure women are much more likely to get breat cancer but following the coalition rationale we should still provide screening to everyone with a reduced age range. This way, just like with bowel screening, many of those most likely to have breast cancer, women, will be omitted from screening.
