Love the Welly airport CEO lobbying the Govt to spend $3,800,000,000 of public money on a project that will barely make a difference.
That’s more than twice the asset value of the airport itself.
Such better, more effective, and faster solutions possible!!

Thank you for calling it public money. People really need to stop buying into the neolib framing of 'taxpayer dollars'.

Excellent point concerning this project, also valuable to show willingness to critique actual/potential wasteful spending. Especially while some panic over less than 1% of the Wellington roading budget despite associated public health savings.
