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: โš ๏ธA new independent internet regulator with power to create binding rules without going back to Parliament โš ๏ธForce platforms to hand over proprietary algorithm designs to the regulator โš ๏ธRegulate recommendation systems โš ๏ธExplore restricting VPN use โš ๏ธA catch-all recommendation to "consider further matters" and task them to the regulator - the blank cheque

Over $200M of public money is being dumped into AgriZero ... to mitigate farts and burps. Treasury opposed how it was set up due to accountability concerns. Ministers ignored their warnings. Luxon pointed to the opaque AgriZero programme as a reason he's committed to Net Zero.

Chloe envies Norwegian petroleum-based prosperity. She also envies German anti-carbon de-industrialisation. The two are mutually exclusive. Palestine First abandoned the real environment and never possessed financial literacy.
Chloe Swarbrick wants to talk about Norway. Let's. Oil and gas are 57% of its goods exports, the oil fund pays for 26.6% of the budget, and migrants have to earn their place. Sounds a lot like NZ First's plan.

Luxon's India, Nigeria & Bangladesh FTAs will bring even more third-world immigration. Less GDP/capita. He betrayed National's traditional base. Some say he's tone deaf. I think he's made a choice. Kiwis are catching on. To compensate he'll seek to axe MMP & import more votes.
Our economy is growing faster than Australia, the UK, and US. Thatโ€™s off the back of Kiwi businesses up and down the country. Last night we celebrated some of them at the Indian NewsLink Business Awards in Manukau. This election is a choice between a growing economy and No New Taxes with National. Or more debt, nine new taxes and puting it all at risk with Labour and their mates. Stick with the plan. Donโ€™t leave the job half done. Party Vote National.

Luxon is panicking. His chickens are coming home to roost. His influence in taking National so far left is proving disastrous. Heโ€™s finally realised his mistake and gone into full freak-out mode.

Hipkins is a puppet; if he wins, New Zealand will experience the same disaster it went through under Jacindaโ€”because he and she are the same trash. But if you lose, well, "GO CRY ME A RIVER"โ€”as you like to sayโ€”because your actions have turned all of New Zealand against you.

A reminder of how this started
Brian Tamaki Defends Free Speech Brian Tamaki delivered a powerful defence of free speech in downtown Auckland this afternoon, to an appreciative crowd. Though he addressed other issues of concern to Kiwis, free speech was the theme.

"all people online" Breaking news around Labour's plans to regulate the internet. Not only will they introduce an under 16 media ban, they're working on the regulation of adult users as well. At a media debate last night, Labour's media spokesperson Reuben Davidson announced he is planning- 1) a โ€œDigital Duty of Careโ€ law that will require platforms to protect not just under 16s but all users from "harmful content and addictive designs", and 2) an "independent" online regulator with powers to enforce standards, investigate practices, and fine non-compliant companies. NZ Labour has said it is basing its "Digital Duty of Care" bill on the Albanese Australian Labor party's version. This bill passed in the House of Representatives yesterday but still needs Senate ratification before becoming law. Significant opposition exists to this bill. The opposition criticises vague definitions of harm and the "over-censorship of lawful speech". Shadow ministers and free speech groups have said the law is deeply flawed and unsupportable. The left (including of course NZ Labour) is coming down on free speech all over the West. As they face increasing criticism via the free speech avenues the internet provides, but that left friendly legacy media refuses to. Same old tyranny. Same old communist jackboot.

For CINOs like Key, it seems they're fine if Labour beats National, or National beats Labour. We get more or less the same policies, the same globalism. But an actual conservative minor party rising to beat Labour would spell an end to their multi-decade control of NZ politics.
Donโ€™t leave election result to chance. Make sure National is the largest party.

John Key is fighting to keep the Uniparty alive. An apparent attempt by Key to suppress the size of minor parties, to preserve the red/blue mirage amidst its decline. Luxon even demanded a referendum to end MMP.
Donโ€™t leave election result to chance. Make sure National is the largest party.

The day we reject politicians who grow GDP via mass immigration to claim they have somehow benefited the people of New Zealand is the day this nation ends its decline and reverses its social adhesion. Globalism is cancer. Vote sovereign.
Our economy is growing, inflation has fallen, and mortgage rates are stable. The plan is working. We need three more years to finish the job. Party Vote National.

GDP is outpacing GDP per capita by 330%. Low-skill immigration leads to a poorer nation with scarcer resources. Immigration policies must change if New Zealand wants a future. Instead those policies are set to get much worse on 24 August. OECD Chief Economist Catherine L. Mann:

Huge congratulations to RNZ for its tireless work ensuring no New Zealander accidentally goes a full 2 days without a fresh update on the Opportunities Party. 7 Facebook posts, knife-edge polls, Coalition daydreams. Bottom lines. Ice cream. Even a post about National and Labour's health debate has a cheeky photo of Top's leader. You guys are fantastic!!

The Greens are hyper-focused on quintupling refugee intake, eliminating our immigration health standards, and creating pathways for chain migration. Why bother learning economics if the success of capitalism runs counter to your objectives? Vote Free Palestine, become Palestine
Good grief. Green Party co-leader Marama Davidson has just been asked a simple question: What is the interest rate on govt debt? Davidson: โ€œabout 1 to 2 percent.โ€ The 10-year NZ govt bond yield is currently around 4.9 percent. Davidson is completely clueless about govt debt, no wonder the Greensโ€™ promises add up to a whopping $272 billion over four years.

In 2021, Jacinda Ardern reversed a long-standing rule and began allowing HIV-positive migration. The Greens want to take that much further: 1. Skyrocket our 'refugee' intake 2. Abolish health standards 3. Facilitate chain migration Is the health of New Zealanders and our national security not something to protect and defend? It seems none of that is their concern.
