@AnneliseJoy @SuzanneRobins1 @LouieTheRed1 I'm talking about paternity leave. We are also only entitled to partial pay not full pay for PPL so I do find MPs entitlement to full pay unfair

I really get tired of the cry "it'll cost jobs" when the minimum wage rises. The work still has to be done. Therefore, how can it cost jobs? It's the "cried wolf" phrase of employers. #nationnz

SO WHY DID GERRY BROWNLEE NOT RESIGN AS AN MP FOR BEING CONVICTED FOR ASSAULT HES STILL IN PARLIAMENT TODAY 16 years later AS OPPOSITION HOUSE LEADER @simonjbridges please explain that? nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/articl…

@quinnjin2009 @LouieTheRed1 @NZNationalParty @jacindaardern @NgatiBird @rnz_news @heraldnz Yep its really bad sportsmanship- anyone who truly cares about NZ wouldn't try to create uncertainty. Why so many people still do their banking with Aussie banks is also crazy. All NZers should move their $ to NZ banks!!!

What would you do with a minister who continuously assaulted a young woman by pulling her hair? having been told by her, his wife & even his minders it was not ideal behaviour. Where on earth did National get that MP, sorry PM, from?

@simonjbridges People in glass houses @simonjbridges...wasting even more public money on this inquiry you're demanding is not on

@EK_Livingstone @LouieTheRed1 @jacindaardern Expectations are being managed for govt to divert attention from pay increases. Stay strong teachers you may have to strike again to make your position clear. Dont take less than you deserve

@CheckpointRNZ Thats totally off. I dont support that at all. Thats tax payers money subsidising second home mortgages. Not on

@GregOhariu @LouieTheRed1 hahaha egg on face there- Simon O'connor is a huge hypocrite

Whitebait stocks are at critical levels, so why are we serving endangered fish in home kitchens and cafes alike? thespinoff.co.nz/food/16-08-201…

@mwhurrell @Fonterra If you are so humbled and truly give a damn about the co-op then make sure you only accept reasonable pay not the ridiculous amount the previous CEO stole from its farmers.

@LouieTheRed1 @MsWonderOutLoud And tell us Bill E are you taking your $50,000 perannum now you are a supposedly legit ex pm... how are NZers meant to feel about that?

@thomasmanch @LouieTheRed1 We all know that groceries in NZ are grossly overpriced particularly good, whole foods. What can be done though? We have to eat and if we aren't green thumbed we're a bit stuck handing over huge amounts of money to supemarkets each week

I've enjoyed a good whitebait fritter in the past, but dammit, @Forest_and_Bird are right - it's madness to allow a commercial trade in endangered, native species via @nzherald nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/articl…

@brendon_mckenna @CheckpointRNZ @JohnJCampbell What's, your, point?

@farmgeek Perhaps but @dan_bidois must take responsibility for his actions in supporting hate speech. I wholeheartedly agree that the sort of racist rhetoric these speakers tout should not be given air space or justified as 'free speech' or 'opinion'
