Breaking habits of a lifetime. Taking public transport into Newmarket to meet my daughter for lunch. Old me would’ve driven in. But we’ve got the first steps towards a proper grown up public transport network now with the CRL.

I just noticed. Some bugger scribbled on the insert. Perhaps I should return it for a refund. 🤔

Conversation between Harry Mowbray and Sean Plunket provides some interesting insights. Amongst other things, wonder how much O'Brien was paid... #nzpol

Mowbray answers that he runs the campaign as an individual. He says the group first considered operating as an organisation, but the Electoral Act would have stopped them saying what they wanted to say, whereas an individual faces fewer limits. He concedes that he lacks third party status and explains the word "we" by saying friends help him around the edges. He describes his spending as very small. The group had first sought roughly $400,000 to $500,000 at a meeting at a large property, but once it grasped the legal constraints he decided to fund the campaign himself within the $17,000 limit for individuals, and he promises not to exceed it. He says he pays no commercial organisation or consultant now, though he did pay Annie O'Brien when the group first employed her, before the plan changed. He denies that any other organisation is involved, says he has talked to Jordan Williams and hosted him for lunch a few times, and insists he has never visited the Taxpayers' Union office. He adds that his son, who appears in Hager's book on pages 109 and 110, barely knew of the union. He attributes the earlier confusion to naivety about the Electoral Act, saying O'Brien and Steven Franks flagged the problems. He has not heard from the Electoral Commission and says he would welcome its guidance on how to avoid a breach.

“I asked him if he had read it (Dirty Works) & of course the answer was no. He was just going on what had been reported. There has been a lot of reporting designed to undermine its importance in exposing that part of our election campaign that operates in the shadows” #nzpol #DirtyWorks

Austerity in Action: Trying to get and IRD number for a charitable trust when one trustee is not an NZ citizen - good luck. Try on the web site and eventually it tells you that you must contact the IRD directly. Ring the business number, eventually it says there is no one there to answer the call.

'Piggy bank is empty' nonsense provides cover for the political class. Once the lie is exposed, they have to answer questions like 'If we have 100,000s of people wanting work, and plenty of raw materials, why is our infrastructure falling to bits? Sounds like mismanagement, ay? (It is!)
