Hello! This is the Saturday edition of More Than A Feilding, catching you up on the week.

Here’s what you may have missed.

Wednesday was about 30k speed limits. It also has a clip of Christopher Luxon on his Instagram actually saying

I'm incredibly proud that over the last few weeks we've announced a dearth of policy

No, really. That’s what he said.

The Sunday column begins with an octopus and ends in the White House.

He has in fact been achieving monumental things, but it's not a story you hear all that much because his opponents don't like to talk about his success and conventional media prefer conflict and confected drama and non-stories about an old dude tripping.

So he has been leaving the talking heads and swivel eyed christofascists and Murdoch pawns to it. They go off 24/7 while he just does his job.

Tuesday’s edition was about politics as super rugby.

LOL. I'm so bloody old I can remember when barnstorming in election campaigns involved actual barns. I knew momentum and you sir are no momentum.

Thursday’s edition was a guest post from the most excellent Pippa Coom

And Friday’s quiz covered all the big issues of the week, from Trump’s indictment to the Ukraine war, and back to Trump again. Because there are some things you just have to hear more than once.

A pupil attacked two other boys at the school. He picked the wrong country - here, the National party would offer him a safe seat...
