Magnolia Lanarth on this frosty morn.

How exactly is a new baby boom in Aotearoa NZ going to helpful when folk can't afford food, housing, education, health care, there's huge unemployment, wage stagnation, and general misery? You know what encourages folk to have kids? Great social investment, secure income, and fewer RW twats

Survivors of abuse in care hand-delivered flowers to Parliament. The flowers were picked from the grounds of hospitals and care residences that were sites of abuse, and marked 2 years since the damning findings of the Royal Commission of Inquiry. My #cartoon today #NZpol #AbuseInCare #ChildWelfare
