anybody know of some novels or series with themes including the good side of humanity? I really like for that, where the human heart is challenged yet prevails.

Not necessarily looking for Sci-Fi but not excluding it either. Maybe something historical or steampunky would be cool. 😅

David Seymour says:
"Having public servants sticking their beaks into how people treat each other has made us a more complicated and divided country."

But he is happy to stick his beak into parents' decisions about their sick children attending school.

Christopher Luxon has walked back comments he made on Monday evening when he told media, “Personally, I would have wanted some reassurance from a clinician or from someone that actually the individual is good to come back to work”.

On Tuesday morning he denied saying he was calling for a clinician to advise or sign off on a minister returning to work after mental health struggles, telling media, “No, https://www.newsroom.co.nz/pm-under-pressure-without-oppositions-help?utm_source=Newsroom&utm_campaign=2f1216f5bc-Daily_Briefing+26.07.2023&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_71de5c4b35-2f1216f5bc-85841649&mc_cid=2f1216f5bc&mc_eid=ef265371c2I didn’t say that, I said I wanted some reassurance that they’re okay”.

@ClareBear I do not relish the prospect of a PM meeting a world leader one day and having to contact them the next day to say "that was not what I meant at all." Luxon does not appear to know what he thinks until he hears what he says.
