It’s critical that any future regulation of disinformation + other online content respects human rights & carefully navigates the various trade-offs that are present with tricky stuff like this, so I’m hopeful this new project will help chart NZ’s path forward in this area.

Our school had already deferred school til Feb 3. As a parent with a long drive on the NW motorway, I’m all good avoiding floods, high winds & potential carnage during what would’ve been an orientation/powhiri week for tauira. Feb 7 is fine.

3 Waters is about to be the apotheosis of the NZ media cycle where govt roll out an agenda, the RW media sneer, distort, undermine, amplify the opposition, then, when events vindicate the agenda, they sneer again and say "OK, but why did govt do such a bad job of explaining?"

A mate was caught on a flooded road north of Auckland & told me when the water gets to a certain height, you don’t take your foot of the accelerator & reverse. What is the right thing to do?

A big conspiracy theory says the Covid vaccine could have killed 80+ Canadian doctors I spent months investigating & speaking with the doctor's families. Most died from heart attacks, cancer or suicide But it won't go away. And those behind it are Canadian doctors themselves🧵

Kiaora This smiling 14 year old told me he wants to be a policeman when he grows up. I asked him why he thinks he’d be a good one? “Because I’m a good talker,” said he. “I know how to have conversations and I always use my good manners.” ❤️
