#BHN Luxon's economy spluttering | Debate around Musk's "salute" | Bishop hammers Trump

from #BHN Big Hairy News · host Big Hairy Network

Prime Minister Christopher Luxon says the Government has been taking the problem of economic growth seriously even though inflation is stagnant, the cost of living isn't improving and rents are still increasing...all things Luxon promised to sort out before he was elected The debate continues on Elon Musk's "salute"...sort of. Defenders of Musk are putting up still images of other leaders saying everyone does this...but when you compare video to video, rather than photo to photo, it's a very different story. We'll show you tonight Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde made a direct plea to President Trump during a sermon at the National Cathedral's interfaith Service of Prayer for the Nation, a plea that seems to echo the words of Jesus to look after the widows and orphans and those most vulnerable. This "socialist" concept has been rightly dismissed by conservative Christians. ================================= Come support the work we're doing by becoming a Patron of ⁠⁠#BHN⁠⁠ www.patreon.com/BigHairyNews⁠ ================================= Merch available at www.BHNShop.nz Like us on Facebook www.facebook.com/BigHairyNews Follow us on Twitter. @patbrittenden @Chewie_NZ Follow us on Bluesky Pat @patbrittenden.bsky.social Chewie @chewienz.bsky.social Emily @iamprettyawesome.bsky.social Magenta @xkaosmagex.bsky.social
