$3B for a hospital covering almost half the south island? no, no, unacceptable, impossible, financially irresponsible. $10B for a tunnel speeding up the trip from Wellington airport by 15 minutes? now that's just sound financial planning

It would be really nice on a simple point of fact if the media and political pundits would stop talking about "Israel's conflict with Hebollah" as if it is a sovereign nation. It isn't. Israel is current committing undeclared acts of war against Lebanon by bombing the capital of Lebanon.

In Wellington’s morning peak, buses are only 3% of the vehicles on Thorndon Quay but carry 60% of the people. On Adelaide Road buses are 1% of the traffic, but 40% of the people. Want more people in the city without more congestion? Fund more bus lanes, and higher capacity, higher frequency buses.

Graph showing percentage of vehicles by corridor and mode, comparing buses and cars on Adelaide Rd, Glenmore St, Thorndon Quay and Mt Victoria.

I just took a survey that would have benefited from the modified 2-D Likert scale I just invented

Likert survey form with options
"strongly agree - agree - neutral - disagree - strongly disagree", or
"grudgingly agree - meh - grudgingly disagree", or 
"this question is annoying"
