So
@Rawiri_Waititi
calls
@actparty
racist & when questioned by
@dbseymour
he goes ‘can’t get into the nitty gritty, you work it out’ Throwing the racist card around is too common & dangerous in this country! Mind you that’s Rawiri & his parties answer to everything.
@AMShowNZ
While New Zealand is celebrating Matariki this is how Te Pati Maori’s newest candidate Hana-Rawiri summarises our two major cultures! Their goal of segregation rolls on. Don’t give this lot any power for the sake of our country.
I just heard a news reader say “around 160 ‘people’ get cervical cancer per year”. 🤦🏽♀️ news flash! Only WOMEN get cervical cancer (which is terrible ) but my point….. Women!! Stop legitimising this rot
So
@TVNZ
One News don’t think the story of the Northland lockdown blunder isn’t ‘news worthy’? Have sat through the hour &..where is it? 3 women accused of using false info - which they didn’t, cost to Northland $23 million, no govt apology & no story on the news?! Disgusting.
Watching Waitangi ‘Celebrations’ -so
much airtime given to those who are deliberately scaremongering & misleading the public. Those that don’t want NZ’s to have a debate nor do they want public scrutiny of the vast array of race-based privileges that have already been established
I’m perplexed with the ‘end is nigh’ rhetoric over the repealing of the smoke free laws.The cost of ciggies coupled with smoke free areas has seen smoking rates at their lowest.Will this really encourage thousands of new smokers? Vaping, is a bigger problem, especially for kids.
Enough! When the hell is this govt going to get serious about crime!!
3 days ago, Deputy PM & Auckland Minister Carmel Sepuloni was asked how bad is the crime in her city. ‘Oh I wouldn't say it's bad at all," she replied
Reporter asks the PM ‘what about businesses and the fact she has just announced a permanent level 3 for Auckland’, and she shoots him down saying ‘well we can see the pessimist in the room’ Sorry? We’ve been given nothing to be optimistic about!
Even though she was asked multiple times on

@BeeFaerie
wld not answer whether it was fair some were given Warriors tx’s/food & petrol vouchers etc to fill out the census form. Here’s your answer; It’s NOT fair-nor is it an ‘incentive’..it’s a bribe!
I am super stoked to be the new host
@MagicTalkRadio
9-12pm!! Cheers
@TheSpinoffTV
for the write up. Thanks for the support I’ve had & to those that want to be abusive, please take your hate & bullying somewhere else. That’s it, .. love what I do!
#talkback
I understand we need to be informed but is the hundreds of graphs & disturbing headlines about Cyclone Gabrielle helping? It must be triggering the heck out of people that have already been flooded. Knowledge is power but I feel we are getting whipped up before the event?
I fear I’ve given up as I can’t even be bothered working out the cluster f#%k that is the Govts traffic light system & unobtainable vaccination level. More millions of dollars thrown around with abandon, kiwis turning on each other, mental anguish, no end in sight.
#bekind
As the spokesperson for Labour
@jacktame
did another wonderful
Interview of
@chrisluxonmp
this morning on
@NZQandA
😆 Out of touch as per. Kiwis have bigger problems than how many homes Luxon owns. Only 9 of the 120 MP’s in parliament don’t own properties (multiple)
Egregious interview
@NZQandA
with
@jacktame
Not only did he attack all of Minister McKees answers, he basically accused her of the deaths of 51 people! Outrageous!! Is he concerned for her safety now? No!
So this guy that did the stabbing at Countdown in New Lynn had a team of special police with him (waiting for something to happen?) He was known to the PM yet he was casually shopping in a supermarket! 6 people stabbed!How is a ‘known threat’ since 2016 wandering our streets?
What a car crash Willy Jackson is
@NZQandA
Not one question answered, just more mumble-jumble-defaming other people, using words over and over like ‘your people’, NO details on tens of MILLIONS of tax payers money being spent.
#corrupt
Thanks you to all that listened to me and Mark and Marc. You may know now our station has been shut down. I want to thank you all who listened and shared your stories .. I LOVED being part of your lives. I hope we talk again ❤️
When millions could be spent on health, education, potholes.. you name it, this government spends it on this! And the bonuses won’t even help with practical job requirements and DOC have NO positions that require te reo!!!!
What a shocking ‘interview’ (and I use that word lightly)
@NZQandA
with
@jacktame
&
@MarkMitchellMP
around gangsJack obviously thinks the govt is doing a stirling job but for those living in the real world are scared & want something done. Talking your guest down is smug & rude.
I realise many check out people don’t pack groceries anymore but here’s the thing, don’t act all impatient that I don’t have my One Card/debit card ready when you’ve zapped my last item because I’m doing your job! You can wait, OR you can pack & I won’t hold you up.
I would really like to hear what
@NicolaWillisMP
had to say but as usual Jack Tames distain for
@NZNationalParty
came to the fore & he kept digging up John Key & talked all over her. As usual she kept her cool but it’s his way of not letting her to get her policies heard
@NZQandA
Oh, boo hoo! Now EV drivers will have to contribute to building & maintaining the roads they use. Considering they cause twice as much stress on roads compared to petrol & diesel cars due to the weight of the battery.
Auckland level 1 ...soon!! But now I’m listening to 10 minutes of Labour’s policies? State housing, RMA, dental care, harbour crossing!!?The PM used the words ‘my pitch to New Zealand”! The networks should cut away once the Covid announcement is done.
#shameful
Calling the ram raids a ‘blip’ & told not to blow it ‘out of proportion’ on
@NewshubNationNZ
is part of the problem! Tell the terrified dairy owner that’s sleeping in his shop after being robbed 5 times! Someone is going to be killed but hey, ….it’s just a blip.
I’ve had a bad day. I lost it briefly on my show; instead of ignoring the negative/abusive people,I pushed back. I’m exhausted & over the hate. Then the supermarket was a cluster F, next; went through BK drive through & forgot to order & now I’ve noticed my pants are inside out!
What the hell is ‘middle class privilege’ Watching TV One Breakfast talking about child poverty and apparently if you have a bowl of fruit and some books in your house you are ‘privileged’!!! 🤦🏽♀️
I don’t understand.We beat & kill our children..where’s the protests for that? We are facing an economic crisis, we’ve been under govt rule, 1000’s have have lost their jobs living under Alert levels, yet people blow all our hard work & protest?? I gather now we are in level 0?
Hang on, Dr Ashley Bloomfield has said on
@TheAMShowNZ
Mike Kings Gumboot Friday didn’t get funding because they need to know his councillors are up to the govts standards - clinical safety - yet $2.75 million can go to the Mongrol Mob!!!! What a joke!!!!!
WTF?! Tonight on the news a man had his business rammed raided TWICE in one night
@NgatiBird
‘oh youth crime is actually dropping, no need for harder penalties’ backed up by Minister of Justice
@KiriAllan
🤦🏽♀️ when you don’t run a business & get paid regardless why care right?
Well said Sir Ian Taylor!
So, Chlöe, my question of you: When will you start to give those who take the risks to create jobs that pay tax the confidence that,were we to pay more,you will spend it well & not pour it down a seemingly endless drain with little or no accountability?
Very impressed with
@DrShaneRetiMP
on
@NZQandA
he answered every question
@JohnJCampbell
speaking pragmatically of what needs to change.. the future! Very different from the interview with the PM who kept bringing up what they’re done in the past & was self congratulatory.
According to police there’s a “Family orientated feel’ in Opotiki 😳 despite schools being closed, some locals leaving town and an extra 100+ cops being called in. Yeah classic family feels.
@kehetauhauaga
@Jasonwalls92
Just disgusting from Davis! Sure it’s a personal attack but it shows this Govts acceptance of ethnopolitics which should concern all New Zealanders!
Just seen the interview with Todd Muller
@NZQandA
@jacktame
The “how many Maori are in your top 10” makes me cringe! I would’ve said ‘Why am I not being interviewed by a Pakistani woman?! What race are the top 20 people
@TVNZ
Then his panel was 2 white people? 🤦🏽♀️
#VirtueSignaling
I didn’t want to be right but I called it a month or so ago around these ram raids- I said these thug-losers would end up just smashing & robbing shops in broad daylight & that’s what happened in Takapuna at Michael Hill!!!
@chrishipkins
the ball is in your court!
Absolutely devasting news for Simon and his family! I have always admired Simon not just for his career but the love he has for family and faith. Rest in peace beautiful Jodi.
@aniobrien
I know personally how amazing Karen is who wants nothing more than to help the most vulnerable children! F*&K those that say she is the 'wrong'' kind of Māori, her and I have both been called that, she just gets on with the job.
Whoa! Should vet your panel a bit better
@AMShowNZ
who was the woman who gave zero f#%ks for the people missing in the sub (titanic) because they are billionaires?? And the cost of the rescue mission! Cold 🥶 maybe ask what there thoughts are to the topics before going to air.
I’m getting sick of being told we cannot function in society until ALL temptations are taken away! How the hell am I tying my shoes in the morning? Maybe an advisory panel should ban shoe laces for Māori & Pasifika as we may fall over them?
Its a week today our wonderful station was shut down 💔Thanks to everyone who sent kind messages. I believe in taking time to process, not do anything knee jerk, ...and day drinking😉I still love radio with all my heart & hope to be 'somewhere' in the not too distant future.
Is it fair the PM now after announcing the Alert levels is now talking about their policies? She’s talking about infrastructure now! The other parties don’t get this airtime. But hey if the journalists asking the questions don’t understand how unbalanced it is..good on Jacinda!
Having a bit of a giggle about the change of Waka Kotahi to NZ Transport Agency and all the comments from people disgusted- I remember when it went to Waka Kotahi and talkback blew up by people that were disgusted! Probably not the same people to be fair…

rightly points out - 'empathy is essential, but it cannot replace the core principals of journalism- integrity, impartiality and the pursuit of truth'
63 years ago the AKL Harbour Bridge was built and in that time we have had strong winds yet in the past 2 years
@WakaKotahiAkNth
go into a blind panic when it’s windy and shut the bridge!! Normally around peak hours!! Is this A: necessary & B; the only answer you have?
It is going to be very interesting if Chloe Swarbrick becomes the co-leader of The Greens- she holds a seat, loves the limelight. James was practically a mute with Marama doing all the talking - so how will this work? Do we really believe a ‘co-leadership’ will work?
Shane, it is getting tiresome that everything is 'racial' & 'white privilege'.. the facts are Jacinda doesn't fire ANYONE! One of her MP's could literally rob a bank and she would do a presser, put on her disappointed face and tone, but that person would keep their job.
A fantail just flew into our lounge- flew around - and disappeared!!! Can’t find it? Hubby says it must have flown out without us seeing? I rang my Dad in Kaikoura - he’s alive.
Bloody nice try
@TovaOBrien
but it’s obvious Human Rights Commissioner Paul Hunt can’t or WON’T answer ANY questions??!! What an absolute joke this man is! And use your own money in the future mate when funding criminals!!

Newshub/Three news now officially gone, and I’m seeing many collages of pictures are popping up from past presenters espousing their grief… by reminding everyone they once worked there! 😆

@vlcnz
For a start AKL medical school advises that of the 287 places on offer 40% are reserved for Maori & PI students – While A grade levels are necessary for ‘general entry’, C grades are acceptable for Māori & PI students . All for Māori Dr’s but not just because of their ethnicity.
Hubby said I should fill my car cos petrol prices are going up.. again.. tonight, so with just under a quarter tank left, I filled up this arvo … $186 dollars!!! 😩 what is it costing you?
Dear Auckland, when I came here nearly 30 years ago I was in love with you. But you’ve been neglected by those that should not hold their jobs of power! Now you’re nothing but a rundown, broken, congested beyond what is humanely possible to get around in..sad city! NZ’s shame 😢
Watching tv this morning I saw Ngira Simmonds - Chief of Staff for Kingi Tuheitia speaking about the National Hui that's been called for early next year. He was succinct, thoughtful & spoke of unity-not racism, division & disruption. The TPM needs to take a leaf out of his book.
I’ve just seen the promo for the Harry & Meghan interview with Oprah & he’s banging on about how ‘it’s been soooo hard’ but at least he has his wife by his side’.. dear lord! Take a reality pill mate, ..spoilt, super rich couple .. yeah, my heart breaks for you two 😆
Headline in the 6pm news “lurking near our beaches… while referring to sharks. ‘LURKING’ .. ‘OUR’ beaches? How about ‘sharks spotted near shore, be careful, while in THEIR world’ 🤦🏽♀️
Proof that when you try to have a sensible debate and ask some questions you get labelled with propaganda. And you wonder why people don’t trust MSM
@NewshubNZ
FYI check out the podcast.
So when you are at lunch, in a vineyard, adult environment & a person tells our table to watch your language (our table of 4 having a great time) because their toddler is at the table next to us..here’s an idea... take them to McDonald’s!! And hey, stop your kid yelling & crying!
CHAOS in the city and
@WakaKotahiAkNth
at their best shutting down lanes on the bridge as the wind scares them?!!!!! Why do we accept this Auckland? Serious overkill with the risk assessment AGAIN!
Hey
@FlyAirNZ
can you start policing how many bags people bring onto the plane. My 2 flights this weekend I’ve seen a MINIMUM of people carrying 2 bags & handbags & laptops!! I get to my seat, there’s no room in the overhead lockers? Seat front of plane-my bag in the rear?!! 🤷🏽♀️🤬

CEO & Founder of Giggle For Girls. We talk about her landmark fight to reclaim sex based rights and protections for all women and girls.
@SeanPlunket
This nonsense would be funny but for the fact it is actually scary. I said it on my show that nearly caused me to lose my job (now the whole station is gone but...) & I will say it again. Only WOMEN can get pregnant! Has Te Whatu Ora realised their very name is not inclusive?
Nice to highlight ‘it was a grown-up conversation’ on
@theplatform_nz
what was unfair was Tames not-so-subtle spin McKee had blood on her hands. Where was his severe allergy to obfuscation, evasion, and spin for the last govt?
For an eighth consecutive day there are no new cases of Covid in the country so when do you think

will stop with the lines & start packing our groceries?
20 years ago I went on a date with this guy, we met at a Thai restaurant in Birkenhead- now called Mulan- then we went to Blitza pizza for drinks. It was wonderful.. then & tonight! ❤️❤️
I just saw the Barbie Movie. I knew it wouldn’t be the most thought-provoking movie I’ve ever seen, but was surprised it’s quite the man-hating flick. All the Kens are portrayed as unintelligent & all the men in the ‘real world’ are portrayed as misogynists.
#BarbieMovie
Wow! There is burying your head in the sand
@AndrewLittleMP
and complete denial! Even playing the 'blame game' on the Nurses Union. What will it take Minister for you to listen to health workers and stop pushing 'nothing to see here' narrative?
Me & one of our dogs was just attacked by a German shepherd on our walk!It was off lead & two teenage girls were with it & had NO control over it! I was sitting on the grass & didn’t have time to get up so was in the middle of it all! These girls should NOT HAVE THIS DOG!
PM about to give her speech on alert levels.. Let’s play a drinking game.. 1: ‘Team of 5 million’ 2. ‘Be kind’ 3. ‘Go hard, go early’ .. I feel I shall be pissed very quickly

The corporate tax rate for Māori Authorities is 17.5%, compared to 28% for other businesses. And because of their ‘charitable’ status, many iwi-run businesses-like Ngai Tahu's Go Bus and Shotover Jet are tax exempt.

@notoaotearoa
tweeted was I the high profile radio host that was caught drink-driving. I did threaten legal action if not taken down & I explained why I reacted like that, and this was their response. They did get one thing right. They are the cesspool.
Exactly! And when Mark was trying to explain police stopping the gangs riding around in their 100’s, stopping traffic etc.. all Jack could say was ‘well how many cops will it take to stop them?’ Suggesting it’s impossible to do so let’s just continue to accept it’
Yesterday I had a lovely lunch..and a few bubbles 🥂with great people, …is it okay I am still on my couch at 11.30am under a blanket watching reality shows? I feel I will not achieve much today 😉

@NewshubNationNZ
interviewing
@Chris_Luxon
& shown a picture of the 4 men who ran for Tauranga (Uffindell) question from host; ‘What’s wrong with this picture? Answer; NOTHING! Proof this dangerous narrative of ‘white is bad’!
First time in my life… at the supermarket, halfway through checkout…. Realised I had forgot my card!! 😳 told the checkout person I couldn’t pay & rang hubby in a panic! He’s on his way to pay! 🙏🏽 to the lovely checkout lady who said ‘no worries’, happens all the time’ 🤦🏽♀️
Latest ACT podcast out; David Seymour and I talk about race-based healthcare & why it doesn't treat people equally. More families are struggling to afford day to day living and I talk to ACT MP Karen Chhour. From state care, to spokesperson for Children.

Question; How in this world where it seems you can't take a s#%t without someone being able to record or get a photo on their phone, this guy seems to paint his way happily around London with not ONE person seeing him? I call BS!
Just watching a news anchor throw to a reporter at Parliment who then interviewed a reporter standing next to her! 🤣I guess that’s what happens when there’s actually nothing to really report except conjecture?
