We still get complaints about use of te reo Māori on TV/radio. It’s no breach of standards to use a national language & we no longer consider such complaints. Kua mutu i te BSA te tirotiro amuamu mō te reo Māori. See our 2021 statement in Māori & English: bit.ly/3z2HfXd

So heartbroken for my @SundayTVNZ whānau and everyone affected by the cuts at TVNZ. Also heartbroken for the people that shows like Sunday service. The voiceless, the vulnerable. Sad day for journalism, sad day for our democracy.

It is estimated that there are 14,000 overstayers in Aotearoa. Migrant Workers want amnesty for them all. Read more: tewahanui.nz/politics/the-mi… #PathwaysToResidency

Yall been LOUD about your hate for police and the system. But let a woman share her assault story and all of a sudden you trust the court process and need proof. Please go to hell

Part two of Ngā Hine Pūkōrero's performance at #BlackLivesMatter in Auckland today. Cannot overstate how powerful and affecting this piece about colonial brutality was, delivered to a crowd of several thousand in Aotea Square. Aotearoa, we got a ways to go. 2/2

This is huge. We've just changed the law so when police encounter someone with an addiction, they're taken to hospital rather than away in handcuffs. Congrats to @_chloeswarbrick for working so hard to get this over the line 💚

Today we announced that we're phasing out single-use plastic shopping bags. Our Government is determined to face up to New Zealand’s environmental challenges. We’re taking meaningful steps to reduce plastics pollution so we don’t pass this problem to future generations. 🐢🌏🐬

To anyone studying journalism in college or uni, you have the most wonderful opportunity. Much of the current crop of mainstream journalism has nearly destroyed the industry with lies, smears & gossip-mongering. You can be the investigative heroes that resuscitate & revitalise it
