LCKENDRICK<p>The only problem with Winne bringing down the house of card's and forcing a snap election is Labour still hasn't cut Chippy lose he's not the guy they need to do what I said when they lost last election.</p><p>Give the ball to Kieran McAnulty he's the future of the Labour party probably a tad early into the breach but Chippys gotta go.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/NZPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NZPol</span></a></p>
Marsden<p>"... our first instinct was: sounds like a nice change from the defunding of social services, disability benefits, schools, universities, food for kids, Jobseeker payments, research....<br>...<br>We must ask why the implication that police may not keep everyone safe produces such vitriol and backlash from those in power, when the decimation of public services that do keep us safe does not garner such a response."</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/NZPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NZPol</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/DefundThePolice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DefundThePolice</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://thespinoff.co.nz/politics/17-04-2025/defunding-the-police-is-good-policy-actually" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">thespinoff.co.nz/politics/17-0</span><span class="invisible">4-2025/defunding-the-police-is-good-policy-actually</span></a></p>
