Congrats to our new Mayor, Wayne Brown. You’ve promised to fix what’s broken, so I look forward to ensuring Council is held to account on climate action, density done well, liveable streets and well-resourced public amenities. For a city that works for all of us.

I’m on record on numerous occasions saying every NRL club should take their home game against @NZWarriors to New Zealand to repay Warriors and their fans for an incredible sacrifice to save our game. Warriors should not have to leave their country at all in 2023. It’s only fair.

@PhilGould15 Hey Gus, not related to this tweet. But would you be onboard with Warriors argument for affected clubs to take home games to NZ during the FIFA exclusivity next year? Great for the game over ther IMO.

Both Wgtn and Akl Councils have provided a perfect demonstration of why the heavy-handed approach of the NPS-UD and MDRS was required in the face of a local government system that continues to prioritise the wants of the well-housed over the needs of the less fortunate.

An absolute pleasure to get a behind the scenes look at Wellington's St James Theatre before it opens tonight for its first performance in three years.

The dinosaurs are roaring today. Most completed traffic projects in Akl are roads: Waterview, wider motorways in south+north etc. Predictably, congestion is worse. But AA blames PT projects still being built. For the record, CRL will carry 16 motorway lanes of commuters at peak

Clr Rush clearly mislead a number of people & downright lied about it several times. The time to come clean was way back then. The Mayor’s response is completely inadequate & sends a clear message there are no consequences for bad behaviour.

Sean Rush intially refused to say if the anonymous profile, often used praise his decision-making, was his. But he now accepts it was poor judgement.

Three and a half years ago a survey found Wellingtonians supported light rail through the central city. Three and a half years later, a survey finds Wellingtonians support light rail through the central city. This is good progress.

You’ve been a great ambassador of the game Ross! It was wonderful playing against you. The way you reinvented yourself over the years to adapt is an inspiration for all the young kids aspiring to be cricketers. Heartiest congratulations on a fabulous career.

Throughout the pandemic Siouxsie Wiles and Michael Baker have been very similar in their analysis. Both on the cautious side of spectrum, readily available to media, & always backed up their views with science. Yet only one is constantly harassed by a certain type. Wonder why

Absolutely astonishing. During Russian Channel 1’s evening news broadcast, a woman ran onto the set with a sign: “No war…Don’t believe the propaganda. They’re lying to you here.”
