Another mayoral candidate, Graham Bloxham, has also published malicious and untrue rumours about me. These men do not belong on council. We must protect the integrity of our democracy and make others aware of their behaviour. Our city is better than this. #nzpols

The week local politics got ‘dirty’
Personal attacks, legal threats and counter claims light the fuse on Wellington’s election campaign.

These Ministers aren’t fixing the housing crisis they’re cashing it in.
Selling off state land while our people sleep in cars isn’t policy. It’s a political hit job on vulnerable whānau.
You don’t build homes by gutting the agency that builds them.

Kāinga Ora halts hundreds of housing developments, sells vacant land
The projects would have included 3500 homes, as the state housing provider also sells a fifth of its vacant land.

Not far up the road, a rare example of what we have lost. Kahikatea-pukatea swamp forest is critically endangered, with only 1% remaining.
We can't plant this, but we can create the conditions for these forests to eventually grow themselves back into existence.

This seems catastrophically tone-deaf from Parliament, and the cheers photo with Malpass and Brownlee equally fucking weird. Billions stripped off low wage workers but don't worry, they've created an "Old English" pub inside Parliament: www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/3607...

I'm going to rate this one: Pretty Fiscal Holey.
It's a readily quantifiable cost that directly follows as the consequence of a new policy. It's not a risk! Tbf it's not technically *missing* from the budget document, but it is not "budgeted for".

Luxon proudly states that he and his government are calling out and clamping down on the Māorification of the country.
Is there no point at which they will think that enough harm has been done to Māori-Crown relations and it's time to stop pouring fuel on the fire? #nzpol

Delaying the Golden Mile will only drive more people away from Wellington because our central city desperately needs investment just to keep up with our international peers. We have voted for the GM multiple times across multiple councils, now it's time to build it www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...
