Oh there's political recognition alright. It came in the form of government moving to limit future liability for clean up. Expect to hear more from our prime manager about personal responsibility as the insurance companies pull out.
life ending and infrastructure destroying floods are now an annual occurrence in new zealand. there is no political recognition of this new reality, and thus there is no resourcing for its prevention. we are not ready

Coming up three months since redundancy and I'm starting to get job hunting burn out, even with a break over Christmas from searching and applying for jobs, it's always there looming in the background.

Raising taxes would send Kiwis overseas? Bitch crack a newspaper once in a while huh? Or ya know, even better, actually read your briefing from Stats.
Raising taxes on rentiers would snuff out the recovery, but making working people save more is 'ambitious for the future' . Clown show. Come. On. Commentariat. This ain't hard.
