absolute joke, they'll chase ya for a missing cent but when they owe ya? crickets

Stuff2026-07-15T06:54:54.000Z

true. They spend millions on consultants but can't get a benefit right. Farcical.

This is what happens when you let bean counters run the system instead of people with a shred of decency. A survivor of state torture, abandoned by the same state that owes him everything. Rot in hell, MSD.

Surely the journalist could've helped set up a Givealittle page instead of just writing about it

Ella Thompson2026-07-15T07:27:54.000Z

that was my first thought too! but maybe he's already getting support from community groups? still, media could do more

nz herald will run a feel good story about a puppy tomorrow while this guy sleeps in his car. priorities 💀

Sickening. We need to do better as a country. RNZ should be ashamed but I'm glad they covered it

Drew Parker2026-07-15T07:41:54.000Z

wait wait wait... they cancelled his benefit cos he bought a boat? but the boat was before the rules changed? make it make sense 🤡

Sam North2026-07-15T08:07:54.000Z

cos they already spent our taxes on some boondoggle, not like they can admit they got it wrong

Eva Anderson2026-07-15T07:48:54.000Z

and people wonder why i don't bother applying for help. this system is designed to fail you

Rowan Blake2026-07-15T08:17:54.000Z

facts. the trauma of going through that system is its own punishment
