Chris Hopkins may as well call the Governor-General now I think. Luxon has ruled out Opportunity. I don’t know how he can be any clearer than that.

Could it be the $4b train line they’ve just built next door?

I used to support CRL but now all my local lunch spots are packed. This is a disaster!

Love the CRL!! Trains are so smooth!! So quiet!! Stations are gorgeous!! Love all the staff! but damn the dwell times at stations are insanely long. If we wanna be like a real international city we need to be more ruthless. It should feel a little threatening @AklTransport – at Auckland, New Zealand

#CRLNews: The Sky Tower has shared photos of the City Rail Link pre launch messaging that was projected onto the Sky Tower on Friday night. The messaging also contained an animation on the 100+ year story of bringing the CRL to action.

I agree completely with @MayorWayneBrown A bed night levy is a user charge, one that is needed, that is common all over the world to fund major events I'd add the basis of a city deal is communication and no surprises. I was sure surprised to find out their policy on here

The only way it could be "very difficult" is because the cycleway is either highly utilised (justifying its installation) or that he finds it challenging to walk over a lane of green paint + tim tams. You be the judge.

What the hell is wrong with these people? We don’t need a crumbling carpark in the middle of all the wonderful new spaces and buildings we’ve got now. If you can’t get to the city without a car, stay in the suburbs

Just approved under Fast Track! A new 55 level commercial office tower, a 162m mixed-use residential tower, a hotel, retail, food and beverage spaces, publicly accessible civic spaces, and an expansive laneway network. Fantastic news for Auckland.

J.K. Rowling spent years telling the world she was standing up for women. Then she turned around and defended posting an up-skirt photo of a trans woman by saying she “chose to dress that way.” Women have been fighting that excuse for decades. It has always been victim blaming and it still is. Your principles don’t get to change based on who the target is. If this excuse is unacceptable when it’s used against one woman, it’s unacceptable when it’s used against any woman. Where do you draw the line between activism and public humiliation? #JKRowling #TransRights #LGBTQ #VictimBlaming #Equality
