I really dont understand all the angst about unenrolled voters being disenfranchised. I mean, National might receive 900,000 party votes and not get a single list MP into Parliament. Talk about voters being disenfranchised!

I feel your pain, Trevor. To be fair, the Electoral Commission may not know where Wainuiomata is. You have loads of time to vote and to do so you may have to travel outside the Mata. xitter.cf/WainuiTrevor/status/21…

When I become PM, the bills won't keep coming. I will have the power to stop the bills. No more power bills, no more rates bills, no more phone bills. I will make NZ the envy of the world, the only nation where the young, old, poor and vulnerable can avoid paying bills.

Under Labour, some people in prison for serious crimes such as rape, sexual assault and manslaughter were previously allowed to vote. We don't discriminate and will allow such people to vote if we're elected. The Nats are mean, denying such people the right to vote.

Forget about lowering the voting age to 16, Q wants the unborn to be given the vote lol "And the people who will live longest with the decisions we make today deserve to have their interests represented, even if they're not yet old enough to vote, or haven't been born." rnz.co.nz/news/politics_elec…

I remember when TVNZ publicly celebrated the 30th wedding anniversary of serial killers Fred and Rosemary West. The media need to take a step back and chill. I've handled Kerrin's situation like the statesman I am. It is time to move on.

Thank you, Stuff. I know I can count on you to support the Labour Party. Can you produce a pic of Luxon drowning a litter of kittens? stuff.co.nz/politics/3610506…

I'm disappointed that Kerrin thought she needed to turn up wearing Labour Party paraphernalia. Didn't her whanau know she was standing for Labour? Its true I wear a Labour badge or scarf to the Cossie Club but some of the old duffers have dementia or Alzheimers.

I am not going to throw Kerrin under the bus. Okay so her memory is shit and her whanau are not boyfriend matrial. My ex says the same about me. teaonews.co.nz/2026/10/22/vi…

Doctors are required to do no harm and Gazza has since apologised. Besides, masks don't work. Jacinda was told they wouldnt work but she said Labour had to be seen to be doing something. She wouldnt listen to other views.

"it's the centre-right people out there who create the wealth in New Zealand" - Gareth Morgan Bloody Gareth said the quiet bit out loud. 😩

I can live with criticism. What I can't live with is another election loss. I'll be talking to Harry privately to assure him that he can bark like a mad dog if he wishes. Labour will never abandon him and his mates. stuff.co.nz/politics/3610488…

During the debate I said that a deliberate overhang is cheating. The reality is, we will work with Te Pati Maori overhang or not. I don't have the luxury of being principled when faced with the end of my political career.

Okay so Paul Henry says the quiet bit out loud. It was bound to happen. stuff.co.nz/politics/3610483…

Although most voters have had > 1000 days since the last election to enrol, some Labour voters may have only recently been released from prison, overcome their drug addiction, or denounced their gang membership. I feel Bomber's pain. xitter.cf/CitizenBomber/status/2…

There will be a Commission of Inquiry into Scott Watson's conviction if I win the election. There are too many unanswered questions. We should've held such an inquiry into the Peter Ellis case but Phil Goff liked an easy life. He was relieved when Ellis died. rnz.co.nz/news/crime-and-jus…

This story about a serious medical event happened over five years ago. Its currently on the Herald website. The media are making my job so much easier. Winning this election is going to be a doddle. Thanks again, @henrycooke nzherald.co.nz/nz/hdc-delaye…
