No Plan, No Idea, No Ferries. Today’s announcement by the Minister of Finance means we don't know: - where replacement ferries are coming from - how much they will cost - who will pay for them - how the port infrastructure will be delivered, - the fiscal or economic impact A 🧵

Hot off the press. National’s new ferries.

"Drones are officially in Brooklyn?" No, airliners flying towards LaGuardia are officially in Brooklyn. I located where these videos were shot and matched the viewpoint in Google Earth, looking towards the Verrazano–Narrows Bridge. Flightpaths during the time of filming shown:

Ferry fiasco ‘ a masterclass in incompetence’…reminiscent of ‘an orchestrated litany of lies’ (you get points for knowing what that referred to) Suffice to say the current finance minister has created a clusterf**k + the gross wastage of taxpayer dollars is economically reckless

Corruption by the govt coalition in broad daylight. The 'big end of town' have certainly received an excellent return on their $500000 investment in the coalition partners. It seems that Simeon Brown , Shane Jones & Chris Bishop have done the donors proud. rnz.co.nz/news/in-depth/…
