Marking 2 years of the government coalition's #WarOnNature, Greenpeace has released a comprehensive timeline documenting their environmental actions (I'd even say crimes).
It is quite staggering!
Pour a cuppa, brace yourself and have a look at a timeline of the most anti nature government in New Zealand's living memory:

If taught well, the kids will succeed but yesterday’s PR stunt by Minister Stanford was just that. She wouldn’t know a grapheme from a phoneme.
And by the way, what they’re calling “structured literacy” was started under Labour by Minister Tinnetti who actually has expertise in this area #nzpol

Although it will be very funny if TV One/Kantar keep Luxon in the race and then he gets plastered at the election

The TV One Poll continues to be an outlier IMHO, there is a The Post Poll coming before the end of the week, I will concede if they have Nats ahead of Labour but I doubt they will Colmar/Kantar has had a bias to the right for years and they've never corrected it #NZPol
The growth in dollars spent at the supermarket was double the pace of growth in the number of transactions, she said. Supermarket trips were up 5 percent over the quarter compared to a year earlier but each trolley cart was 11.2 percent more expensive.
Spending on utilities also increased. The amount of money spent on utilities was up 19.3 percent on a year earlier, including rates and energy bills.

Earlier this year the government announced the Census would be replaced with a combination of administrative data and smaller annual surveys.

The latest 1News Verian poll has Christopher Luxon with an overall approval rating of -14, down from -7 in March. Meanwhile, Chris Hipkins scored +1, still in the positives, but a 15 point drop from a result earlier this year.
When the NZ's coalition govt took office nearly two years ago, its #WarOnNature started.
In that time, they've made a bewildering number of changes leading to environmental harm.
Greenpeace Aotearoa head @russelnorman.bsky.social has undertaken the gargantuan task of tracking them all👇

Luxon’s War on Nature Timeline...
'A complex and protracted dispute over the collapse of a carbon offset partnership has ended with findings of dishonesty, oppressive behaviour, and breaches of legal duties against two bankers, and a multi-million dollar settlement.
The High Court in Wellington has found two bankers, Will Leckie and Chris Morrison, breached their duties as directors and partners in the Drylandcarbon management companies.
The pair's company, Lewis Tucker & Co, managed Drylandcarbon on behalf of the 50-50 partnership they had with Ant and Wendy Beverley, who developed the intellectual property, but the partnership fell apart in 2019.
The court ruled Leckie and Morrison used Drylandcarbon's intellectual property to advance their own interests with a second fund, cutting the couple out of the deal.
"It is clear that Messrs Leckie and Morrison leveraged Drylandcarbon relationships, personnel, marketing materials and methods in their pursuit of the Forest Partners opportunity," Justice Paul Radich said in a judgement.
The judge ordered the bankers to pay the Beverleys no less than $12.1 million for their share of the partnership, H1 Ltd.' #NZPol #NZLaw https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/business/575804/bankers-ordered-to-pay-12-point-1m-after-carbon-offset-partnership-fell-apart
