#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.

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 🤔
