Being soft on methane is such a spineless move for a sunset industry like dairy who even in their death throws of being economically viable in the wake of synthetic meat and milk still manage to drag our collective feet on any meaningful legislation.
I am an enormous fan of Labour MP Kiri Allan.
I have argued many times that this Government wasn’t expecting to win and so walked into Government with no actual plan of what the hell to do and how to reform the neoliberal public service enough to force change through. What we are seeing is a civil service fair more interested in doing nothing than being forced to do something and so work to water down any real reform so they can keep control of their fiefdoms, with many of the new Ministers unfamiliar with Executive power, they have been easily sidelined or manipulated into stagnation.
In terms of winner or loser? It was a draw, which sets up the fight as a two horse race, something Goff doesn’t want and Tamihere does.
The first ever one on one confrontation between Goff and Tamihere for the Mayoral race will happen tomorrow morning on The AM Show at 7.40am.
A TALE OF TWO WALLS: It’s funny, the woke left on Twitter are screaming to boycott the NZ Herald because they have Rachel Stewart behind a paywall where as the class left like me are demanding they put Hosking, Soper & Hawkesby behind the Paywall!

Pharmac , our drug buying agency, is taking longer than other countries such as Australia and the UK to approve drugs that can help save people’s lives.
I’ve said it once, I’ll say it a thousand times, the woke would eat their own young if they weren’t so militantly vegan.
Looking at the way this Government gave up on a Capital Gains Tax, censored Māori voices in the mental health inquiry, denied Afghan witnesses to participate in our war crime whitewash and seemingly gave up on any meaningful welfare reform, my blackened jaded heart sees this as another window dressing exercise to look like progress is being made when sweet bugger all is actually being progressed.
