@Tiare_MP Johnsonville should have some high density high-rise apartments in the centre. But one company owns all of the prime commercial land between the motorway and the railway. Break the monopoly and good development will happen.

Aussie has 40% rooftop solar, NZ only 4%!
Now Aussies are getting 11-2pm power free.
When the heck is a political party going to get into solar subsidies, like what got Aussie to that point? Loans just don’t cut the mustard. Everyone wins with solar, except foreign fossil fuel

@GraemeEdgeler @HobsonsPledgeNZ Always with Hobson's Pledge, what they say they are arguing about is never what they are really arguing about. The argument is presented as a matter of principle, but the underlying motivation is protection of a fixed material interest. No point engaging with them. #proxyargument

@GraemeEdgeler Oh. Yeah. Duh. I've seen those names wrongly spelt so often that I no longer notice!

Both Don & Tim held senior public sector positions at the time; Don was Reserve Bank Governor & Tim was senior at MFAT. There was confidence by the Govt of the day in their professionalism. Neither faced the kind of attack that this senior police officer now faces.

If only someone in the media would expose Farage's incitement yesterday via performative utterance in the same way that Jonathan Miller humiliated Enoch Powell and his grubby little racism.
