I'm trying not to interpret anything from the fact it's you replying to him about Julie Andrews while using a cube root sign. Three of you and that sign cant be a coincidence. Can it?
Don't overthink it mate, you'll cook yourself.

Actually it’s a white they/them pointing the finger. They sound very angry & not prepared to accept some accountability for what went down.Watch: Doyle exits ‘the colonisers’ house’, it’s toxic ‘if you’re not cis straight white man’

Advised to delete all his past social media, didn’t listen and admitted to being naive…
Advised it wasn’t safe to come back to parliament yet, didn’t listen and now has resigned…
But it’s everyone else’s fault!
Unfortunately there’s a lot of people out there like that, weak individuals with no concept of personal responsibility suffering from victim mentality.
Really? Sometimes you guys need a bit of reflection on what you post eh
It might sound harsh however it’s reality.

Sounds like Nicola Willis at the moment
She’s going through a rough trot. I really don’t rate her at all however I do have some sympathy. The GDP numbers are rubbish - as in I highly doubt they are correct, the export data looked inconsistent with what the industry have reported. I guarantee there’ll be a big positive revision of those June quarter numbers.

That’s tough to guarantee with her citing worldwide pressures as the cause. Who’s to say the world will be rosier by then and the same pressures apply, potentially more pressure? Key has come out with the reserve bank as the cause, Willis blaming world issues and tariffs, they need to get on the same playbook of they’re going to blame
Dairy numbers were wrong - volume &’pricing is up. But there’s no doubt things are at best only modestly off the bottom of the economic cycle, it’s still really tough out there & it’s probably more just how you split the March quarter better than expected growth vs the June numbers - they’re both fiction. I agree with Key, the RB was the single biggest problem for what we’re going through, they overheated the economy far too much & then cooled it way below where it needed to go. Total muppets. However industries are slowly starting to see improvement out there. September will look a bit better & the RB are now hellbent on cutting rates - they’ll go too far once again.

They desperately need the economy to show some life soon
Yeah and I think they’ll def get their wish. The media don’t help, neither do the Banks. All a bunch of fucking idiots.
Some facts:
NZ GDP fell 0.9% in the June Quarter (1.1% per capita)
Willis blames "international pressures".
Australia's GDP rose 0.6% in the same period.
The USA's GDP rose 0.8% in the same period.
The UK's GDP rose 0.3% in the same period.
The OECD average for the same period was 0.4% growth.

While I have no time for this government, I do hope you’re right because I need work to start coming in again. I do have concerns though that I’ve read a few of these post from you now and it feels like we take a step forward followed by a few steps back
More details below;
GDP figures for the June 2025 quarter reveal a mixed economic performance across the listed economies.
USA
: The U.S. economy's real GDP grew by 0.8% in the June 2025 quarter. This is the quarter-on-quarter equivalent of the widely reported 3.3% annualized rate. The primary drivers were a sharp decrease in imports and an increase in consumer spending. UK
: The UK's GDP saw a rise of 0.3% in the June 2025 quarter, driven mainly by the services and construction sectors. Australia
: Australia's economy experienced a positive change, growing by 0.6%. This growth was primarily fueled by robust household spending. New Zealand
: New Zealand's GDP contracted, falling by 0.9% for the quarter. This was a broad-based decline with negative contributions from multiple sectors, including manufacturing and construction. OECD Average: The OECD average GDP growth for the June 2025 quarter was 0.4%. This represented a rebound from the previous quarter's 0.2% growth, largely driven by the U.S. performance.
