NZTA and Auckland Council. Stop the traffic jams. Leave our town centers and small business alone. Fix congestion, fix the roads. Do your job.

If the government was serious about lowering emissions it would set a cap.on the amount of CO2 thst NZ can emit, and stop meddling in the economy.

The Prime Minister’s “nuclear-free moment” was just a line in a speech. Coal imports are up 40 percent under Jacinda Ardern’s Government.

Auckland cycle bridge looking in doubt. Govt. considers scrapping it. Grant Robertson said that if the Govt. can bring forward the second crossing (tunnel) it should do so. "I believe it is something that if we can bring forward, we should."

We need a Climate Commission that we can trust to be independent and transparent. Fail on both counts.

Climate Change Commission process must be paused

The ACT Party represents hard-working Kiwis who believe in the best of our values. Free speech and fair play. Rational debate, not the dogma of ‘left v. right’.

The Natural and Built Environments Bill is the RMA on steroids, removes democratic accountability by handing planing functions to a co-governance Regional Planning Committee, and includes 18 conflicting outcomes. ACT would repeal it.

@JanetMackinnon7 In response to my Q to Minister of Transport, half is spent, the other $180m remains unspent. So even with money in the bank, projects are stuck in planning and consenting. Aucklanders stuck in traffic costs $1.5 -$2B per year. ACT solutions are here

Net-zero carbon 2050? The ETS can do it alone says the CCC. With the ban on new coal boilers, either the Government simply does not believe its lying eyes, or they are virtue signalling in the most cynical way. Sign the Petition for better Climate policy.

Third world Northland. This is the detour used this morning while the SH1 Dome Valley was closed with yet another slip. The morons at Waka Kotahi have no idea at all and endanger more lives using unsuitable roads for detours. Tahoua/ Kaipara Flats to SH16. Its a goat track!
