#BHN Ideology over Expertise | 18-19yo's pushed into further poverty | Global Warming innevitable
Description
It has been reported that the decision to not recognise Palestine at the UN earlier this year came directly from Winston Peters Foreign Affairs office, with little to no consultation with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. In another example of ideology over expertise: Louise Upston was questioned in the house regarding the decision to means test the parents of 18 & 19 year olds and take away their jobseeker benefit payments. We look at the advise from the ministry that the Minster ignored in favour of their govt's ideological belief of what's best for our young people.NZ's recent policy changes and target reductions against our international obligations to combat Climate change have made us an embarrassment at the recent COP30 global climate summit.=================================Come support the work we're doing by becoming a Patron of #BHN www.patreon.com/BigHairyNews=================================Merch available at www.BHNShop.nz Like us on Facebookwww.facebook.com/BigHairyNews Follow us on Twitter.@patbrittenden @Chewie_NZFollow us on BlueskyPat @patbrittenden.bsky.socialChewie @chewienz.bsky.socialEmily @iamprettyawesome.bsky.socialMagenta @xkaosmagex.bsky.social
