Get personal instead of addressing any issues raised - Typical. And the world continues to get hotter and we are let down by a lack lustre Green Party and supporters who accept blindly. as I said the Green party today and an inferior image of what was. And...
“. Most thinking people recognise the Greens as the party of environmental…”- pity that impression is very misplaced - whist their constitution places this prominently they continue to select list candidates that on their bios make little or no mention. ...
what a plan for this country if we were serious our leaders would be leading and ensuring that NZ meets its commitments - not meeting them and then paying some guilt money to other countries, displays to me that our leaders do not take this serious enough,...

"Wood said he did not disclose them as he thought they had been sold." "Having indicated back in 2020 that he was intending to dispose of them, he should have done that." https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/political/491423/transport-minister-michael-wood-stood-...

Many live within the school zones, close enough physically that they do not need public transport (Many around the country would be in the same situation ) Think how many live within walking distance of their school- I am sure some cannot afford should ...
So to stress out most of NZ with the current cost of living crisis the reaction of the govt is a master stroke, time for many to get out into the real world and see (obviously not experience). How does someone living within what was Manukau City benefit ...
