#breaking We’ve just announced a new Clean Car Discount that will help make climate-friendly vehicles more affordable.
The @NZGreens have been working on this for yrs. Big shout out to @JulieAnneGenter whose tireless work last term laid the foundations for today’s announcement.

BREAKING: KiwiRail has announced it will bring back the Northern Explorer and Coastal Pacific in time for summer - great news! Now let's keep working towards more frequent, faster, electric passenger rail services to connect people across the motu.

Only 21% of Hamiltonians have voted... but, our voter returns are 4.28% higher than 2016 and Hamilton is bucking the nationwide trend, by being the only city that looks to have improved voter turnout this year! #winning #votethetron

Woo hoo! Awesome work Tim Young and Gerri Pommeroy on The Project tonight talking if the disadvantages faced by those with disabilities to get onto Council. I hope Hamilton is the first place to show this can be done. @YoungForHCC – at Hamilton City, New Zealand

The @DNC's presidential primaries were hosted in Miami where:
1) daily tides inhibit students going to school
2) retreating coastlines force ppl to abandon their homes
3) a fifth of the city will be underwater by 2045
& they spent under 15 min talking about climate change 🤔

Bank holiday reflections: I’ve worked flat-out on this for 2.5 years. It’s triggered multiple investigations & billion $ fines. But I’m in @guardian bubble. Most of UK still entirely in dark. Took a US media org to do this. What next? How to get it out??
