Gordon Campbell: On Why An AUKUS Led By Trump Is A Scary Prospect

On the weeknd, Labour figured out that it doesn’t want New Zealand to join Pillar 2 of an AUKUS pact after all. Hmm. This is despite the fact that its then-Defence Minister Andrew Little seemed dead keen on the nuclear-capable military alliance when Labour was last in a position of power to make decisions that had consequences. Given Donald Trump’s fixation with asserting US superiority over China economically and militarily, you would think any pact designed to cow China into submission would prosper during Trump’s second term, to a round of applause from MFAT and the defence boffins.

NZ Police: Firearms Registry Instrumental In Arrest Of Suspected Firearms Diverters

While the Registry is not yet fully populated it is already changing the game for us. Without the Registry records linking the seized firearms to the suspect licence holders, the flow-on activity arguably would not have occurred, says Detective Senior Sergeant Mike Sears, Wellington District Investigations Group.

Environmental Defence Society: Marine Spatial Planning Is A Game-Changer

“Marine spatial planning is commonplace overseas with over 120 countries and territories now having MSP in place. However, we have been slow to adopt the approach in this country,” said EDS Policy Director Raewyn Peart. "MSP provides a way to better manage conflicts while at the same time supporting economic opportunities and a healthier marine environment."

Biosecurity NZ: Strict Biosecurity Measures In Place On Chicken Farm

“Tests from the Mainland Poultry managed farm have identified a high pathogenic H7N6 subtype of avian influenza. While it is not the H5N1 type circulating among wildlife around the world that has caused concern we are taking the find seriously,” says Biosecurity New Zealand Deputy Director-General Stuart Anderson.

Water Safety NZ: Drowning Deaths Drop 26%—How Kiwis Are Turning The Tide On Tragedy

Water Safety New Zealand’s predictive modelling now forecasts 70 fatalities by year-end, potentially marking the lowest total since 2018 (66).

NZCTU: Luxon Surrenders Worker Protections To ACT Party

The Government should reverse this decision and commit to fair workplace laws that protect all workers, regardless of income. Employment law must ensure dignity, respect, and a fair process for everyone. Anything less risks undermining the integrity of our workplaces.
