Actually implement the system much closer to what Woodhouse intended
If they get off their chuffs, it could also be a chance for the hapless Sepuloni, and an even worse senior public servant fresh from our very broken immigration/Ministry for Everything system to at least partially redeem themselves.
(So it probably won’t/can’t happen)
Can we talk about this? MP salaries too low to pay a mortgage. Come on! Reported on Stuff…
“Former National MP Jami-Lee Ross secretly recorded then-party leader Simon Bridges multiple times, saying he had suffered a huge financial loss after being demoted and would not go down without a fight.
“I have been unable to pay my mortgage. I took up a large house before the leadership change … it has been very embarrassing,” Ross told Bridges.
“There have been times where I have not been sure I have been able to use my eftpos card.”
A certain professor says, ‘A non-residential vote in local government is justified on the grounds that local government is funded on rates, a property tax, and so the principle here is ‘no taxation without representation’. But local councils also get tax monies and while it might be for infrastructure often a neglected area by some, councils are now putting their hands out more and more for things like flash stadiums and conference centres therefore adding value to their properties. So is it fair for them to have it both ways, nah!
This is starting to make some sense now.
Majurey and his mate Paul Beverley seem to have both had a hand in this.
They were the architects of Co-Governance when you read this.
Auckland Council, the Crown and a Treaty Settlement.
Majurey must be creaming it with all of his side hustles!
Chairman of Panuku.
A director or chair of 27 development and finance company’s and trust boards.
Iwi negotiator for 12 iwi as well as a legal adviser to multiple Crown Agencies and Ministers for RMA and Infrastructure.
And another side hustle is he sells off iwi’s RfR (first right of refusal) whenua Settlement that have right that can extend up to 170 years to then oneself that ‘right’ to external parties for development partnerships via his influence in Panuku! $850m worth in one deal with a company called Ockham!
