The Minister of Finance said that she knew how much was going to be cut from each department. She said she knew what the tax plan was. Yet she hasn't chosen to share that with New Zealand. The Government should be making this clear today.

GDP data today shows no technical recession. But flat GDP per capita for a year is why its feels so grumpy. Looks much like what is happening across the Tasman. (1/2)

Today marks 130 years since NZ women gained the right to vote. Our tīpuna wāhine fought for a more equal society, including by organising the Women’s Suffrage Petition. Thank you to those working today to support women & girls. Today we reflect on the past & push for progress💜🩶

In today’s correction, there is no blow out in the Mayor’s trip to Asia. Councillors approved the mayor’s costs, the CEO approved the staff costs. Literally nothing to see here as a 2 minute phone call could have verified.

Some of the plastic lolly sticks we find during beach cleans are decades old. These Lyons Maid Superman's Superheroes lolly sticks are from the 1970s. Moments to eat, decades in the sand. #plasticarchaeology #Anthropocene #Cornwall

Word of the day is another outing for ‘mumpsimus’ (16th century): one who sticks rigidly to their position, despite clear evidence that they shouldn’t.
