Helen Clark patří mezi osobnosti, které Storyz World sleduje kvůli tématům vlády a veřejné správy v kapitole Oceánie. Země, k níž se sledování vztahuje: Nový Zéland.
The interview of @Ed_Miliband on BBC Radio 4 was incredibly hostile. Overall tone of BBC coverage of UK’s big policy move on #Palestinian issues has been very negative & accommodating of spurious criticism. Time for better balance at BBC on these issues.
Strong statement by @nzlabour: in government it will prioritise recognition of the State of #Palestine & join others in banning trade with illegal settlements in the illegally occupied Palestinian Territories. It is in good company in pledging this https://t.co/HtCNqfgG5A
No voice from #NZ and Australia on this. UK’s principled stand for 2-state solution should be supported. UK backs @CIJ_ICJ advisory opinion on illegality of occupation of #Palestinian Territories; refers to ethnic cleansing on #WestBank; & bans trade with illegal settlements.
🇺🇸 Ambassador to 🇮🇱 asserted to BBC in story currently playing that settlements in Area C of the #WestBank are legal under the #OsloAccords. There was no such provision in the Accords. So, why was there no BBC pushback on this statement? Media must do their job to ensure accuracy https://t.co/hIOSdUjVlc
Grim times at NZ National Library & Archives NZ which are suffering job cuts from specialist & other positions. This follows Ministry of Culture & Heritage getting rid of most of its historians. Clearly current govt does not value work of these vital staff https://t.co/2EtFdHppKI
Rising interest rates, slumping house prices, unemployment at highest in 11 years, sluggish growth - not good indicators for a govt heading into an election in 2 months. @VernonSmall in Sunday Star Times: https://t.co/lQANIo0PaO https://t.co/VWk3BZqmzq
Revised list of speaking slots for countries at #UN General Assembly this month. New Zealand still has the very last slot. One assumes no minister is being sent. Embarrassing. 🙈 #NZ
What does this say about #NZ’s standing at and interest in the UN? NZ is listed as the very last country to speak. Even in an election year, a minister could at least be sent for a short visit to fly the flag.
New Zealand Transport Agency cuts road funding for some councils: one assumes this is 1 of many consequences of squandering huge sums on the motorway extension to Te Hana north of Auckland, a political project which would likely fail cost benefit analysis/ https://t.co/ENRMOc1DYt
And spoke under a Confederate flag. Are there no limits? On the history: https://t.co/L0HXyCoDuZ
#Colombia’s peace process led by Nobel Laureate & former President Juan Manuel Santos sought to end a half century long deadly conflict. That was always going to be a journey. Abandoning it now, as new leadership has, can only lead to more polarisation. https://t.co/QzTxpXlvun
How many more #NZ hospital horror stories will there be before there is accountability at the highest level for failing services. We are witnessing preventable deaths of vulnerable people in state facilities. Adequate staffing is needed urgently. https://t.co/VBa274khYn
Biography of former Australian PM Paul Keating has been written by historian James Curran: “Keating’s central theme over the years is that the country has become afraid & that its leaders have refrained from articulating a bigger idea of the place.” ➡️ 2 https://t.co/4s5dlyyFn9
Searing report on deportations of Latin Americans from 🇺🇸 to West Africa where they have no links. Cost of return home may fall on underfunded agencies like @UNmigration. Unclear what reception awaits them if returned to Cuba/Venezuela etc: https://t.co/rjyUNw59E6 via @NYTimes
Let @kizzabesigye1 go free as his wife @Winnie_Byanyima requests. He is not getting the medical care he needs in a Ugandan prison. To deny that continually may well kill him. There is no justification for his imprisonment: he is a political prisoner. @amnesty @DavidColtart.
NZ @Himalayan_Trust founded by Sir Edmund Hillary has launched an appeal for support of #Nepal🇳🇵 communities devastated by the extraordinary flooding disaster. Whole towns & villages have been swept away leaving survivors destitute. Please give if you can: https://t.co/lDEMb2erdX https://t.co/CNcLBFwzAn
Another tirade against an opponent of one of the Minister’s pet mining projects - in this case Stephen Spielberg is his target. Good on Spielberg for honouring Sam Neill’s legacy of campaigning to protect Central Otago from destructive mining. https://t.co/LVY8dlQug9
My heart goes out to all who have lost loved ones in the terrible disaster in #Nepal: death toll includes Nepalese & visitors. Nepal has a special bond with NZ since the 1st ascent of Mt Everest/Sagarmatha. It will need help to recover from this disaster. https://t.co/wZaJckY8OS
So many wonderful & well deserved tributes to the Queen of Country Music, Dolly Parton. Dolly was a generous philanthropist too & readily supported the development of vaccines to fight the #COVID_19 pandemic. 😷 RIP 💔#DollyParton https://t.co/fJzjf6Wfx9 https://t.co/lu2htL1OPr
#NZ is among countries which have condemned letting of contracts for illegal E1 settlements on #westbank which would cut West Bank in half & prevent contiguous #Palestinian state: Joint Statement on E1 West Bank Settlement Plan | https://t.co/y9XSXB8BNP https://t.co/L5B4mM7efc
