National + ACT Government? So what?

Don't let the spectre of TABOR sinking lids on government funding get you down.

Never mind the huge deficits we'll be running to "pay" for tax cuts....which we will then have to re-pay (with interest).

Who cares if the yellow-blue crony-crats shovel hundreds of millions into the non-transparent pockets of their mates via "commercially sensitive" PPPs who will cut the services, charge higher fees and cost more overall!

Yeah....Barack Obama may think the evidence of climate change is beyond dispute, but John Key and Rodney Hide know better.

So public transport in Auckland may remain a fragmented, incoherent, inadequate mish-mash of private operator....and?

Always look on the bright side of life!
