A stolen car was found in Ellerslie, and towed to a facility in Mt Eden, which happens to be near a new train station. So perhaps dial down your hard-on for dramatics, Stuff, and change your headline so it's clear someone was not trying to bomb the train station.
Stuff:

The difference between Christopher “cry me a river” Luxon and Marie “let them eat cake” Antoinette is that she was misquoted

Trainwreck debt quiz
Christopher Luxon is forever talking about the colossal economic train wreck the last government left and this gets repeated as certain fact. But what are the actual numbers?

How fast would you run screaming from the hospital if these two told you: "We're here to do your brain surgery"? Would you even be confident they could hang out your washing without fucking it up?

Thinking about mythical figures The Duke of Wellington, who fought the Battle of Waterloo singlehanded Eisenhower, who fought his way up multiple Normandy beaches entirely on his own And Chris Penk, who was the only one who thought Luxon was too woefully dismal to go on being our Prime Minister

When the aliens arrived and started eating our brains, I didn't stand by and do nothing. I took to them with fly spray, more and more fly spray, as much as I could find, and saying loudly to everyone: “We simply cannot accept the harm being done to a generation of ​New Zealand children.”

14 hours later and my mentions are still full of angry treatises about badly behaved cyclists. Bike lanes are not a reward for good cyclist behavior! They are infrastructure proven to make cities safer for ALL ROAD USERS. Whatever way cyclists have wronged you is irrelevant to the discussion!

This country spent seven years carefully establishing a water regulatory framework and setting up large nationalised water organisations to give effective scale, and then three years cancelling that and bodging together 40 really expensive water companies to make anti-Māori racists feel better.
