Immaculate for age. Moderate kms.

PM Christopher Luxon promised to “supercharge” the EV network. So, how’s that working out?
Let me draw you a picture.
My Stuff #cartoon today #NZpol #EVs #ClimateTargets #ZeroCarbon
Cartoon. Two drawings. The left one shows PM Christopher Luxon flying in under a lightning bolt balloon, waving two flags that read “EV chargers” and shouting “Woohoo!”. 2023 written underneath. The other shows Luxon landed, balloon deflated, holding a flag that says “Petrol” and he’s muttering “Woohoo” Underneath it says 2024.

National’s quiet U-turn on $247m EV charger pledge Once vowing to build 10,000 EV charging points, Prime Minister Christopher Luxon’s Government has so far delivered less than half the cash and chargers. On the campaign trail, Luxon pledged that EV drivers would be able to plug in at 10,000 public points across the country by 2030. His Government would provide funding of $257 million, he said. But this year, the Government reduced pre-allocated funding while installations fell below suggested targets The Labour Government left behind a pot of $105m for EV infrastructure. This year’s Budget reduced that to $95m.

#BHN When trying to find out why Christopher Luxon didn't meet with the hikoi protestors, what we get is a master class in him not answering the question being asked

#BHN This Government is 'road happy' and while that is infrastructure that needs to be addressed, we're wondering why the big watery 'road of national significance' between the North and South Island is being ignored
