John Key sitting right here in the chamber for the first time I can remember since he left.

Paula Bennett joins Bill English, Simon Bridges, Murray McCully, Stephen Joyce, and Roger Sowry in government appointed jobs, with the ridiculous salaries those entail.

Meanwhile thousands of minimum wage workers are seeing their wages cut, and public servants are being sacked.

'An arms race on our streets.' Oversized SUVs and pickups are bad for all of us: pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists, and drivers. It's not fair that safety testing in Canada is only for those on the inside of the vehicle. Sign the federal petition below 👇

In ditching the Kermadec Sanctuary the NZ Govt of @chrisluxon is making a mockery of NZ’s #CBD commitments to protect 30% of the marine environment by 2030, build resilience to climate change, & protect endangered species.
