- Hey world, remember when you thought this was awesome? (Which, by the way, it was). Yeah well she's been suspended for a week now because of it; it's coloniser rules and forms of expression allowed only, indigenous people must only be angry in white ways. www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

- So let me get this straight, under the Greens' alternative Budget I would have to pay a little bit more tax... and every child in my neighbourhood could go to kindy for free? *offstage muttering* AND free dental! 😲 Will no one stop these Marxist monsters??
- The govt's third constitutional outrage this week: the secret Equal Pay Act rug-pull, blocking the CTU and other civil society groups from the Budget lockup, now the unprecedented decision to bar democratically-elected Māori leadership from the same Budget Authoritarian populism wielded as a weapon
- This is the worst punishment handed down EVER in our history. The worst on record was 3 days! When Tangata whenua resist, colonial powers reach for maximum penalty. This is a warning shot to all of us to fall in line. E kore rawa matau e tuohu! #toitūtetiriti #toitūtemanamāori #NZPol

- Denying working women equitable wages is, in fact, a very cunty thing to do. The pay equity amendment legislation looks like, sounds like, and reads like a very anti-women, anti-feminist bill. It's very cunty and so are its architects and supporters. #NZpol #CuntGate #PayEquity
- Nicola Willis & Brooke ven Velden think that equal pay only applies to women of priviledge like them and not to working women and that is a very CUNextTuesday thing
- I don't even LIKE Andrea Vance. I don't know WHAT I think about her calling Nicola Willis and Brooke van Velden cunts in her newspaper column. But whether or not Andrea Vance was civil is utterly irrelevant to all the women whose pay has been fucked by this law change! GAAAAHHHHH #nzpol

View full thread100% I feel a post about civility as class warfare coming on
- Oooooh! It's the ultimate English weapon, and heavily deployed in our old colonies
- With apologies to MLK, I find it far more offensive to tell bootless people to pull themselves up by the bootstraps, than the C-word.
- TBH, I don't give a rat's arsehole how many times Brooke van Velden sullies her lying hypocritical lips by saying "cunt". I'm more offended by the gall of this trash pretending she cares about the safety & dignity of women while voting to degrade them. #nzpol www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...
- As for so-called "civility"-this is one more way wealthy white women silence dissent. I refuse to be "civil" in the face of incivil policies & legislation that target working class women. This is class war & deserves to be treated as such. Civility has no place in this attack on the working classes.
- 💯
- This! #nzpol

- In class war, civility and manners are always used as a weapon by upper classes, thus I consider it appropriate to reject their tone policing in favour of righteous indignation. TL;DR fuck their performative feelings
- Sorry, but are you f**king kidding me? Bringing misogyny into "the House"? A patriarchal institution enacting patriarchal lawfare? Speechless. I'm speechless.
- Three Te Pāti Māori MPs to be suspended by NZ Parliament Privileges Committee over haka against #TreatyPrinciples Bill. More details to come. Yet another case where calling out racism and corrupt conduct is treated more harshly than conduct itself. #NZpol www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

- ...faux outrage is yet more evidence of her own privilege. After all,how dare women call her a **** just because she did a thing that disadavantaged so many of her lower-paid sisters. She's entitled to be entitled,to paraphrase one of her male co-bosses. (2/2) www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...
- It's a very curious moment when a female minister of parliament is more concerned about the words directed at her than the financial equity of underpaid women. Should we be concerned more about words or more about women being able to support themselves.
- I thought she was going to burst into tears.
