Imagine if Clark/Cullen and Key/English Govt had listened to the enviro movt and started to rapidly decarbonise transport. We’d now be much less dependent on fossil fuels that are funding the war, changing the climate, and incr cost of living. But it’s never too late to start
The immigration responses to support Ukrainians in Aotearoa need to be extended to people in Africa, Middle East & the rest of the global south facing war. We should have a framework already established so we aren’t at the mercy of ad-hoc,racialised responses by Govts of the day
As @golrizghahraman and I have said multiple times we have to fully utilise our refugee quota to support people affected by war. We also need to review the visa waiver status arrangements to ensure they are no longer racialised and prevent people escaping war.
50% off public transport fares for three months is a great start. It should be made permanent and part of a transition towards free fares. Supporting people to access public transport is key to lowering the cost of living, tackling climate change and creating vibrant cities
