I’ve been told there’s only a handful of tickets left for my play reading THE LEE LETTER at @Circatheatre tomorrow Sat at 2pm. Tickets here: circa.co.nz/package/fringe… For background here’s link to my interview with Kim Hill last weekend: rnz.co.nz/national/progr…

Only in New Zealand would taxpayers pay for a marquee to protect a compact loader! #pukeahu

Barely awake after being up since 4am, but proud of my cocamassey whanau, from creating the new Simple Luxery marae, to supporting the opening and each other for parakuihi, to supporting the students, hosting alumni and performing at @cubadupa. What a day!

Backlash to Labour's housing policy has exposed signs of internal party disarray theguardian.com/world/commenti…

Sadly the polytechnic (in fact the whole tertiary) system has been chronically underfunded for decades, and no amount of restructuring, moving ceos on and locating new people in a different city/office is going to mitigate that!

A bopping Welly crowd for The Chills at Meow last night!

Watching this very good interview and struck by the Q: why is a large copy of Te Tiriti on the wall of Matangireia, the former Māori Affairs C'tee Room, and not also in the Beehive's Cabinet Room? A daily reminder to Cabinet of its obligations. Te ToW is not just a "Māori Affair"

Enjoyed taking the old boss for a tour of the projects he started 6+ years ago. Thanks @stevemaharey!

Very proud to have enabled the creation of this extraordinary album through the ⁦cocamassey⁩ ⁦Massey University⁩ Matairangi Mahi Toi Artist in Residence partnership with the ⁦Governor-General NZ⁩: Troy Kingi on his new album 'Black Sea Golden Ladder' rnz.co.nz/national/progr…

Nxt week I'm moderating a session at an Aspen InstituteNZ "Misinformation Challenges Seminar" along with Neil Jacobstein from Singularity University and Ross Young from Google NZ. There are still places available aspeninstitute.org.nz/all-events/fut…

My new gig: tec.govt.nz/rove/workforce… It has been a blast, but after 25 years at cocamassey I'm moving on to a really exciting new role heading the Toi Mai Workforce Development Council in mid November. The opportunity was too good to pass by!
