@sootytweet Because this is one way to get around the referendum result that tossed out Maori Wards in Hastings. Stacking the committee's with unelected members subvert that. They have also done the same thing with the new Water Entity and included an Iwi Rep on that.
@EarlFargofbu2a Between 2022 and 2024 Auckland Council Operating Expenditure increased from $2.69 billion to $3.95 billion. This is not capital spending so is not CRL yet Brown continues to blame the CRL. Brown has been a complete failure when it comes to controlling council spending.
@TaxpayersUnion Disagree. The rates rises in Auckland are the result of Brown's failure to deliver what he campaigned on. He continues to deflect but this is his responsibility and yet again he has failed ratepayers.
@nickofnz@bob210570413421 This is currently the largest battery ($500 million to build) and look, a whole 2 hours supply. What happens for the other 6 - 8 hours the sun isn't shining?
@SandeChin So does this mean there is a slim chance we will see some actual reporting by TVNZ? Or just more of the same click bait rubbish we have been getting.
@chrislynchmedia The problem with his slant on this is that, like it or not, Hosking already has all the relevance he needs, just check his ratings which is why senior National MPs fall over each other to get on his show.
@aniobrien Are the National Party electorate candidates for the next election locked in yet? If not there are a few that should be on the phone to their electorate committee's.
