Today, the first rail-enabled hybrid i-Rex ferry from a top shipmaker would have arrived. Instead, the Interislander was stranded.This gov has thrown away $700 million while buying less capable, smaller ships for $45 million more.

A thing to remember about the Green Party's proposed wealth tax is that wealthy people will still be wealthy after they've paid the tax.

Minister of Tourism Louise Upston on where the $40m came from to entice large overseas acts to Aotearoa. My #cartoon today #NZpol #NZMusic #NZArts

Cartoon. Title: “The Impresario” Two frames. 1st frame shows Louise Upston saying, “I can’t pull money for local performers, concerts and festivals out of thin air!” 2nd frame has her continuing, “and I didn’t pull money for big overseas acts out of thin air” Image shows Upton with her hands out, wearing a suit and bow tie, with money rushing from behind her, saying, “I had the $40 mill coming out the wazoo!”
