Prime Minister Christopher Luxon says the Government has been taking the problem of economic growth seriously even though inflation is stagnant, the cost of living isn't improving and rents are still increasing...all things Luxon promised to sort out before he was electedThe debate continues on Elon Musk's "salute"...sort of. Defenders of Musk are putting up still images of other leaders saying everyone does this...but when you compare video to video, rather than photo to photo, it's a very different story. We'll show you tonightBishop Mariann Edgar Budde made a direct plea to President Trump during a sermon at the National Cathedral's interfaith Service of Prayer for the Nation, a plea that seems to echo the words of Jesus to look after the widows and orphans and those most vulnerable. This "socialist" concept has been rightly dismissed by conservative Christians.=================================Come support the work we're doing by becoming a Patron of â â #BHNâ â www.patreon.com/BigHairyNewsâ =================================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

23,000 submissions received on the Regulatory Standard's Bill compared to 300,000 on the Treaty Principles Bill. Is that going to be enough, considering Luxon has declared that National will support this bill, called dangerous by expert.Erica Stanford has delivered her Math resources to schools this week promising to improve our numeracy stats and improve results for children across New Zealand. The education sector are thankful but concerned this will not tackle the wider issues at play.
Tradwives explained, but is the movement good for women, or is it peddling harmful stereotypes of the role that women should have in society?=================================Come support the work we're doing by becoming a Patron of â â #BHNâ â www.patreon.com/BigHairyNewsâ =================================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
