IMO Labour needs to be where TOP is, TOP should be a bit further to the right, UF should be on the right side of the center line, and NZF needs to be like 25% further South. I don't really know

The Spinoff's My Policies is pretty neat, and it shows how much some parties overlap as well as providing an opportunity to have a gander at what each party has to offer, but it can be a bit time consuming.

The TVNZ one is weird. It's segmenting in the context of NZ's political spectrum on the economic axis (hence the 'let's reform capitalism' green party being far-left) but then there's a massive gap at the bottom of the social axis?

The bottom is where the Conservative Party is but it can't get enough votes to even get represented on the graph.

If Turei hadn't rolled the dice I think we'd still have Little in charge piloting Labour into the genteel iceberg, so I think it was worth a shot.

United Future has lovely ads playing before movies at Reading Cinema, lol. Also loving lol at the Maori party being economically left on that chart, and the greens being further left than Mana. Mana is the only party that supports actually nationalising certain sectors again.

I did the poll and I found it interesting that I was asked "how likeable would you rate", but then that translates at the end to how I "rate the leaders". Just because I gave Winston a 7/10 for likeability doesn't mean I think he's a 7/10 leader.

Dunne has quit. I wonder if National had asked him to step aside so their candidate can have a crack at Greg O'Connor?

Doesn't really matter if National win the electorate now, it's not going to get them any more seats. I'll be really interested to see what directions Dunne's support shakes out in though

I have no problem male/female/indeterminate on the birth certificate. It's not like you know if the baby is gay or has gender diaspora, just open it to be changed later in life should they transition to some other sex. It's not like you pull out your birth cert as a identifying document past child hood. Hell, let them change the gender on driver license and passport if they don't already.

It's not the child doing this, it's the parents. That's the problem, not the fact that transgenderism exists. It's incredibly hosed up that now instead of tackling the idea of a child transitioning later in life we're now expected to presume that our child might change their gender from the very moment they're born. It highlights a pretty drastic shift in how we're meant to think about this.

truther posted:we're now expected to presume that our child might change their gender from the very moment they're born No one expects you to declare your kids indeterminate gender from birth, don't be hysterical. Keep in mind that these changes are aimed at saving lives, not forcing people to do things - quite the opposite. voiceless anal fricative fucked around with this message at 05:53 on Aug 21, 2017 |

It shouldn't be controversial to assume a newborns gender is the same as their biological sex. If youre not old enough to poo poo by yourself then there is a laundry list of things you need to grasp before you move onto your gender identity.

The Family First thing is about people changing their birth certificate later in life, not parents preemptively deciding their child is trans at birth. In their own words: quote:Family First NZ says that politicians have deemed birth certificates meaningless as a result of a decision by the Government Administration select committee to recommend that birth certificates be based on the choice of the person. The story they link to is about the government simplifying the process of changing your birth certificate (which you can already do, anyway, it's just a lengthy and expensive process): quote:This would mean anyone can change the sex details on their birth certificate based on "self-identification" and by filling out a sex declaration form through Internal Affairs.
