I’m now living on an Island. I haven’t gone to live overseas, I’m not sitting at a table on the sand with the occassional wave reaching my bare feet as a waiter brings me coffee and tropical fruit. If I could Koh Samui in Thailand would be my choice. That would be nice I could write beneath the trees glancing up occasionally at the hawkers who know me well enough not to try and sell me anything but who smile and wave.
property developers. theyve been privatising the profits and socialising the infrastructure costs since neoliberalism took hold. they have had too much power over the design of our lives. call for charges to be laid for grievous suburban harm going back years. and fines to go towards the cost for everyone to have a nearby train. Te Atatu rise up.

There's a young chap on twitter in Te Atatu a lot called Tau Henare . I'm surprised he hasn't organised a rebellion . Nice one getting thru to the comms lady. They have no control unfortunately over traffic engineers who see the world from the seat of a SUV and never will be seen in a tram train or ferry. And why is dredging a ferry lane so dear compared with macadam cost I mean
The Auckland Council structure was the brainchild of Rodney Hide of Act + the National government of the time. Auckland Transport is part of that structure. It was delibetately made not accountable to the public it supposedly serves. Thanks Rodney.
