i’m so fucking keen for bora to sink its teeth into whatever transphobic bill nzact manage to pass, if they even get it through parliament. like god i hope it gets stopped before then but i’ve been defending bora from right wing assholes trying to undermine it and how fucking amazing it is.
the beauty of it is that it makes it so nzact will have to consider precisely the intention of every way the bill can play out on the floor, in hansard (written record admissible in courts). if they don’t, the courts will find it inconsistent with bora and send it back to parliament, or nullify the application of it entirely.
nzact can’t do squat without hanging themselves from the political noose. the media have business bias but they have a left wing interest too and they will not let this go. the only chance this gets through is if this gets drowned out in the noise.
