Even a lot of phev's would do most people's daily drive with overnight charging on a normal outlet without ever firing up the gas motor.

The obvious wisdom and effectiveness of Housing First is obscured by the fact we've made "a tiny, no-frills apartment" an expensive status symbol in huge swathes of the country by creating an artificial housing shortage

The Govt is currently committed to a fuel tax rise of 12c next year, 6c in 2028, and 4c in the years following. Bishop has made clear his transport plan is predicated on this happening.

It will be interesting to see how the politics of this play out if fuel keeps going up.

someone might owe you for distributing a garlic peeling trick they had never encountered before

What the politics understanders need to understand is that the 15% whose swinging from labour to national determine the government understand 4 things with perfect certainty and clarity:

Petrol prices
Mortgage rates
Food inflation
That the above are the PM's fault

Ttemu Keir Starmer is not what I think most Wellingtonians thought they were voting for last year.

Wellington council budget cuts - big climate cuts Deputy mayor Ben McNulty has been behind closed doors taking a scalpel to council spending and today, some time around noon, invites Wellington to see his masterpiece.

We’re in a climate crisis, a 40 percent cut to our climate response budget makes no sense financially or for the future of the city. Next week’s proposals include a total gutting of cycleway funding, & a backdown on commercial rates for Air B&B providers www.thepost.co.nz/nz-news/3609...

Christ and that was before petrol hits $4.

I'm guessing this is about the poll. But I'd say the same about our temu starmer of a mayor cutting cycleway funding.

Congrats to Wellington Labour on successfully alienating allies and potential voters in yet another attempt to woo the right and disinterested center

I'm sure this pathetic attempt at appearing to be fiscally "serious" will pay off in 2028 🙄

Meanwhile, Welly continues to flounder and go nowehere

do you think there’s a Taliban guy who actually loves his office job and now there’s war with Pakistan he’s like

I mean good, but that seems more like it would be simply ultra vires, there does not seem to be any consequences set out in that act

Whenever I suggest even modest public transport improvements, I get people screaming about cost and that I simply must face “facts” that railways lose money and deserve no investment

You could have electrified commuter rail in every major centre and extensive regional rail for half this ridic road

They hounded Kiri Allen for a lot less than this, this is a state broadcaster begging forgiveness from the government of the day for making independent editorial decisions, this ought to be the end of political careers. Frankly I'd be in favor of a law change to make it a crime.

The problem with housing is a tax system which makes it the default investment, restrictive zoning that made it impossible to build density in most places & is barely better now, lack of public housing & the total reliance on the market to meet demand when not doing so increases profits #nzpol

Does this fucker and trump really not see every other war in history where people smarter and more respected then them were made to look like utter dumbfucks by saying this exact thing like night follows fucking day?

I mean this is just opinion writers brain isn't? doesn't necessarily always get this bad but from the outside looking in this seems to be the general direction of travel when people have to come up with reckons week after week.

Anyway uh buy a bike or an EV?

People need to understand that what ruins Foaming, is Foamers

Hey folks, if you drive an internal combustion car here in Aotearoa New Zealand, might be a good idea to go fill up your tank today.

And think about shifting to electric.

It is a truth immediately and universally understood that the chud dropping explosives on you from 40,000+ ft is not your friend.
