New Zealand repeals world-first smoking ban passed by Jacinda Ardern

Reversal of smoking ban criticised as ‘shameful’ for lacking evidence
New Zealand is repealing the world’s first smoking ban passed under former prime minister Jacinda Arden’s government to pave the way for a smoke-free generation amid backlash from researchers and campaigners over its risk to Indigenous people.
The new coalition government led by prime minister Christopher Luxon confirmed the repeal will happen on Tuesday, delivering on one of the actions of his coalition’s ambitious 100-day plan.
The government repeal will be put before parliament as a matter of urgency, enabling it to scrap the law without seeking public comment, in line with previously announced plans.
Ha yeah that's a horrendously naive perspective, I've been involved in a lot of leftwing movements over the years especially eco and economic reform and I can tell you that if all the infighting comes from outside agents then we should thank the three letters because there would be no movement at all without them.
Are you honestly trying to tell me that you don't think the left has any issues? It's all good honesty lefties working together?
And the others, they're not lefties or Scotsmen, they're agents who must rightly be obliterated... hmm, I think I might have seen this one before 🤔
You said nothing of substance and now you're questioned on it you back away because you know you were just trying to sound tough without really thinking through your position.
