For anyone like Orsman worried about “only” 19,000 people an hour using the city rail link at peak, just note that’s equivalent to double what the northern, northwestern and southern motorways *combined* can deliver to the city centre. www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/aucklands...

Watched #grenfell documentary on Netflix last night. Everything that led to that disaster is what David F^(k!ng Seymour stands for. @labournz.bsky.social, @tepaatimaori.bsky.social, Greens need to telegraph that they will run finetoothed comb over *everything permitted during this 1 term govt

Long time listeners know my deep disdain for the over-(ab)use of legislating under urgency, but I will give my first born gay-by to the first party that produces an Omnibus Clown Coalition Bullshit Repeal and Reset Bill to be passed through all stages as the first order of business. #nzpol

People of Kāinga Ora: The big state housing sell-down Kāinga Ora had demolished 5000 homes; now it’s decided to not proceed with 3500 planned new builds to replace them – and it’s the dislocated tenants who have been left without a voice #NZpol

brilliant

I'd like to thank Donald for what he's just done to the oil price.

Week in Review: Local and central governments are passing the buck between them as each say the other is better-placed to regulate short-term accommodation providers.

David Seymour: I was invited to Oxford but learned a sad thing about NZ. Deputy Prime Minister denounces own country. Will he take the logical next step & go into exile?

Two weeks you say?

It's galling that this government raked Labour over the coals for the failure of Kiwibuild (despite Covid), yet don't do a damn thing themselves about our housing crises! And call a STOP to future builds. They don't give a damn! #nzpol #onetermgovernment

Good thing he’s not our president because a president doing that would be even worse.

These Ministers aren’t fixing the housing crisis they’re cashing it in. Selling off state land while our people sleep in cars isn’t policy. It’s a political hit job on vulnerable whānau. You don’t build homes by gutting the agency that builds them. #HousingCrisis #TePātiMāori #NZPol

La présidente du Bundestag, Julia Klöckner (CDU), interdit au réseau #LGBTQIA de l'administration du #Bundestag de participer à la marche des fiertés de #Berlin. Une honte!
