Jeez he talks a load of sh1t
MPs are public servants so I guess these demotions are part of the wider public service cuts?

Going to be fascinating when Bill English finishes his inquiry and presents his findings.
Of greater interest must be how this government refocuses and reprioritises the multitude of highly paid staff employed at KO and its multi-billion dollars budget (and ballooning debts!) to deliver real housing solutions for NZers.

Absolutely the right thread - another mess & failure left behind by Clueless Cindy & Hapless Hipkins for the new government to clean and sort out.
Do try and keep up.

Pretty hard not to be up to date with your posts as you keep repeating yourself and on the wrong thread.
Ever heard the following?
More is less & less is more?
Quality over quantity?
Ever heard the same joke twice? Now imagine hearing it day in day out.

So the Greens Deputy Leader says Luxon is demoting Lee and Symmons because they are females. First of all I am surprised she identifies them as she/her, without even asking them. Secondly I am not surprised she keeps digging her political grave. What an absolute idi.. she is.

Balance, any hopes you had of National putting the sword to the media are quashed.
Winnie and Seymour will probably be a handbreak on anything too drastic that Goldsmith might propose.
National can still perhaps pitch themself as the 'good guy' in that scenario, but just couldn't get it over the line because hey ho that is MMP.
Speaking to Media Insider from London, less than 24 hours into the role, the new minister’s language is assertive and assured - and supportive of the media sector generally - even if it’s light on specific details.
“First, in the media space, is how do we ensure that we continue to have a strong and economically sustainable local media for the obvious reasons - it’s so fundamental to our democratic makeup - and recognising the challenges that they’ve got and the decline in advertising revenue.”The most useful thing “we can try our best to do”, he says, is to even the playing field alongside the international tech giants, “recognising that it’s not a straightforward matter”.
There was no single solution but the Government would work “systematically through various things that can even things up, somewhat”.
While the National-led coalition has been previously lukewarm and occasionally downright opposed to the previous Government’s Fair Digital News Bargaining Bill - legislation that would force the likes of Meta and Google to pay for the journalism that helps sustain their business models - Goldsmith is more conciliatory.
“People make a very strong case for it [the Bill]; I’m certainly open to it, but I’m going to have to take a little bit of time to get some advice, and it’s something that we need to go through with the channels of government. But I’m certainly open to it ... [and] a full consideration of that.”

Good call - Balances last line “do try and keep up” is a line I have heard from a punishing ZB talkback caller who frequently calls - it’s an unusual turn of phrase - maybe one in the same?

Just give broadcasting to winnie, seymour or one of their flakes as they seem overly interested in the topic.
