Hi Tui, Good to see you here.

LOVE the passion and the facts that you brought to NZPolitics. I no longer partake on the main NZ Reddit and have not for a few years, so I probably missed you there.

You'll be missed on NZPolitics, but so be it. Take care. Substack might be a better suited medium for you

Appreciate your mahi. List is great, the amount of policy bullshit pumped out to keep up with is overwhelming so to have it clearly written out and updated is an incredibly powerful tool! Otherwise It would be so easy for things to be swept under the rug before the 2026 elections..

Please do share my posts - r/newzealand didn't allow my post on all their policies and implications but I personally think it's key for everyone to see with wide open eyes what is happening.

Good to see you posting again. There are lots of us with an appetite for researched and evidence based reporting. Seems like the trolls with a vested interest in keeping you quiet were going hard on Reddit.

I'm pleased that you haven't disappeared forever Tui, we will all miss you on Reddit. Totally get it about the drama, life is dramatic enough without some of the prima donna's on social media.

I look forward to seeing your content here.

Please keep up your great work as a record of history, Tui, it’s a vital and Ironically nearly lost art in the internet age.

Changleen, you are a fave. Remember when nzpolitics first started and it was basically a ck echo chamber? Be well and stay connected my friend.

Sad you had to leave reddit. I really appreciated your posts, and I'll be reading everything you write here :)

I actually shared most of your reddit posts around the dinner table with my politically minded family, created some very interesting discussion. Thank you.

So glad to see you have found somewhere else for your writing and research. When I heard you left I was really sad that I would potentially not get to read any of your commentary! So happy to have followed you here !!
