Good article by Max Rashbrooke. The fiscal miscalculations by this government are horrifying, and he's right to point a pointed finger at the local media's under-reporting.

NEW ZEALAND 🚨 The coalition government is pushing through yet another piece of regressive and destructive legislation which stands to exacerbate animal cruelty and environmental degradation. ============ This should NOT be possible in a civilised nation. Please consider writing a submission. 🐑🐄

'Migration 5’s goal has developed into a slogan: “Known to One, Known to All.” The five countries want to share everything they know about everyone that enters their respective countries.' Very long in-depth report! Very concerning!

I was SO Angry & Depressed all yesterday about the shocking news (studio closures) from Xbox. I will be re-considering my involvement with Xbox and GamePass, especially when I see deliberations to prop up CoD - which I have no interest in.
