This will serve to burn a bit more political capital of the coalition. Some of the projects are more than welcome, others far from popular. And at day's end the injection of funding, or not, will be the telling factor as to whether some go ahead.

At the same spot he was shot at 12 weeks ago.
Looks like he is polling around 60% which is good news.

And of course they are going to say it's not their fault.
Timaru loosing their meat works is going to be a real blow for the region.
Carbon farming is not sustainable, not only will we run out of land, but also run out of money to pay out carbon credits once the population switches over to electric cars and stops buying petrol.

Well written synopsis of the coalition government's abysmal performance over recent weeks. In my opinion Luxon is too hamstrung by his coalition partners to send this miscreant junior MP to political oblivion as she deserves. Costello's "independent advice" turned out to be no more than a half arsed Google search of documents that supported her 50% excise tax cut on Philip Morris's HTP devices but failed on the relevancy and timeliness fronts. A first year uni student would have been able to do better. But still Luxon maintains his 'spray and walk away' support of her actions.

Anyone find a solution -- much apricated -- In mean time still  looking 

Well...he would, wouldn't he...

He at least had the grace to qualify that with 'better for the economy'.

It certainly wouldn't be better for women. Or poor people. Or migrants. Or anyone who wasn't well off.

Idiots.

Despite appeals from Forest & Bird, the mining will go ahead. Much of the problem is that jobs aren't exactly plentiful on the Coast & mining has been the main work there since the 19th century.

And according to their own expert, there's "no need" for the mine.
