Selling off & opening up to privatisation 60% of NZ's conservation land is tragic. Tourism is one of NZ's biggest earners, and mining only gets us royalties of 2% while being on the hook for billions of clean up costs, while they suck our resources dry. Let alone our wildlife, ecosystems #nzpol
Is anyone surprised that Shane Jones spent $63,000 to upgrade to business class, told a private limo to wait 24 hours & didn't care that he exceeded his approved budget by $30,000 - all while on a mining junket
Jones is the same guy who had no compunction charging porn to taxpayers #nzpol #kiwi

I think a lot about the fact that the countries I've lived in have not been on the receiving end of war in my lifetime. That is an incredible privilege based on the geographical accident of my birth. And that's it. An accident.
That they have been on the offensive end (or supportive) is just awefull
