However, it wasn’t long ago that Peter Hummelgaard, the Minister of Justice, said “we must break with the totally erroneous perception that it is everyone’s civil liberty to communicate on encrypted messaging services.” This very anti-privacy statement is quite alarming and consistent with the idea of banning VPNs. Hopefully that’s the end of it, but I know I’d be very conscious of my privacy if I lived in Denmark right now.

He’s laughing, manchild has no regrets.

Thanks little kiwi ❤️

Google has been caught red handed deleting documents on drive.

That’s not accurate at all. A known risk weighs on people’s mind. You have to identify a problem before doing something about it.

A sticker is better than nothing but yes every jurisdiction should ban gas stoves.

Research shows warning labels reduce health risks.

Every murder is appalling.

MAGA hates healthcare.

Being humble is cute!

This is the stepping stone to banning vpn.

The ndp voted for this horrible bill sadly.

Reject this authoritarian bill that put your personal data at higher risk of breaches. Write to your mp demanding that they oppose this awful nonsense and instead focus on educating parents on device parental controls.

I think it’s generally better to promote the people you want to see in rather than bash all the people who fall short of expectations.

That’s the opposite of how it works under first-past-the-post. The more mud one slings at their opponents the better they do.

People are waking up to the fact the greens are the only party serious about tacking affordability issues that everyday people are facing while everyone else is focused on pointless culture wars.

Thanks Cris! Cheers to you this new year 🍷

You gotta take it slow sometimes ;)

Some people want to deworm slowly.

This, she says, “is where organisation is still the big missing piece – organisation on the ground”. She points to Polanski’s success in boosting the British Greens’ membership, to the point where it has reportedly surpassed that of the centrist Liberal Democrats and even the “natural party of government”, the Conservatives. (On her trip, Swarbrick also met the two leading figures behind Your Party, Jeremy Corbyn and left-wing firebrand Zarah Sultana, but is unsurprisingly more guarded about those encounters, noting only that the nascent party’s internal fighting is “rough as guts”.)

In New Zealand as elsewhere, it tends to be centre-left Labour and Democratic parties that have the strongest ground game. So could the Greens really surpass them? “Over time, yes,” Swarbrick says. One central task is “building coalitions” with faith groups, community organisations and the union movement, although the latter’s historical ties to Labour means any relationship with the Greens “will look different”.

The task for politicians, as she sees it, is to “think beyond electoral cycles” and generate public trust by being less opportunistic. “People, when you talk to them on the ground, don’t just want politicians to turn up when it’s election year and times are easy and they’re cutting ribbons. They want you to turn up when they’re having a bad day and stuff is hard. That process of constant accountability – that is where you build trust.”
