I'm just hoping that we aren't building sub pens for the Australia Navy like with the IREX project and the new infrastructure has a lifetime longer than 50 years because of predicted sea level changes. Actually, although it seems like he's been in NZ politics forever, I don't think even Winnie will still be about in Parliament in 50 years time.

Totally, escalation is a way of life these days, look at the the Port extension where you are JN.

Yes Rick.A complete cluster is no exaggeration. Two legal firms & a barrister & half the consent application process was omitted. So much for fast track.
Again the legal costs will be missing from the final figures to make themselves look better .Not to mention the losses to the Port & inconveniences.
Sounds like a bet could be a good idea.
Will this come in on budget and on time.
I can almost guarantee this will be a cluster.

To give context, has all vehicle sales dropped during the recession? Would make sense.
A better measure would be the percentage of sales as EV’s and I believe NZ EV percentage would be surging up.
Winston pledges to repeal the Regulatory Standards Bill, Seymour accuses him of switching to Labour next election. Wouldn't be surprised, he's about as loyal as Marjorie Taylor Greene.
I was a bit surprised by that graph too with the number of new EV's I see on the road lately.

They are playing snooker, not trying to make the country better
The incentive scheme ended just under 2 years ago so you are comparing 2024 against a year where EV sales were brought forward in order to get the incentive discount. On top of that new vehicle sales in total have declined materially in line with the economic weakness.
Been a big influx of those cheap Chinese electrics with badges I don't recognise in the last 6 months, Pams cars I call them.

What war on EV’s?
I just bought one and the govt had nothing to do with it???
Best part my EV’s was the same price as petrol options (where in the past they were significantly more expensive). That’s the market talking and will make them a very competitive choice when running cost (vs petrol) are factored in.
