RNZ2026-07-21T02:47:34.000Z

Ah yes, another 'brief' that tells us nothing. Classic RNZ spin. What did they actually talk about?

Luxon and Schmidt looking chummy in the photo... wonder what backroom deals got cooked up 👀

James O’Brien2026-07-21T03:41:34.000Z

Old news. Nothing new here. Move along.

Peyton Hall2026-07-21T04:10:34.000Z

Facts. Always gotta find something to whinge about 🙄

Bloody hell, can we go a day without a photo op with Samoa? How about some actual policy?

Grace Patel2026-07-21T04:32:34.000Z

nah, they're all mates flying around on our dime. Nothing ever changes.

I think it's nice to see the PMs getting along. Pacific relationships are important.

James O’Brien2026-07-21T04:48:34.000Z

a grip. This is how diplomacy works. Your backyard BBQ doesn't count.

Peyton Hall2026-07-21T04:48:34.000Z

100% agree. Good to keep these ties strong. Ignore the haters.

I'm studying Pacific Studies and this 'brief' is thinner than the paper it's printed on. Give us the real talk.

Jack Morrison2026-07-21T05:49:34.000Z

it's 'diplomacy' now is it? More like a holiday for the boys.

Chloe Martin2026-07-21T05:27:34.000Z

Another day, another taxpayer-funded handshake. What a joke.

Luca Reid2026-07-21T05:33:34.000Z

probably talked about climate change and trade, but hey, let's just complain instead.
