McBlog – Bob McCoskrie's Blog

WARNING: This blog is NOT woke

“[T]hey participate in politics in a way other advocacy groups can only dream of. It’s not a stretch to say that director Bob McCoskrie is much more politically influential than the average backbench MP…. I marvel at being able to see up close a machine that’s been so influential in shaping and driving conservative politics in New Zealand. I wonder if the forces of social liberalism really understand what they’re up against.”

A chalice of poisoned scholarship

Right now in New Zealand a totalitarian mentality in thrall to hate speech legislation is looking like the architect of bondage. Hate speech legislation is the tribal designer’s major tool as the diversity, inclusion and equity trinity (DIE) becomes Aotearoa’s civil religion.

New Zealand needs a voice that can research and advocate for strong families and safe communities. We also need an unbiased objective media that reports different perspectives on the important issues.

I believe that strong families and values are the foundation for a strong nation. There are many issues and events that are destabilising the kiwi way of life, so I believe these need to be identified and resolved so that our social foundations are strengthened not weakened.
