Not transparent. Just useless.
Because the true depth of dishonesty among the PR rabble that Ardern has employed across all departments has now been fully exposed through complaining to the Ombudsman. Not only was the graph BS, they knew it was BS, and argued amongst themselves as to whether they should continue to defend it. Note also the missed deadlines on releasing information. This is OUR government, not some dodgy foreign power trying to pull the wool over our eyes. They are using OUR money to BS us about their obvious incompetency.
Clear and transparent....that's Ardern alright.
Appalling. Ardern should take responsibility for the culture she has grown. She promised the most "Clear and Transparent" government and has set about ensuring it is the exact opposite. When will she front the public expressing her outrage at the millions being spent by the PR rabble to lie to us? This has to be one of the most glaring exposures of her government's true nature. Dishonest, cynical and incompetent.
There were questions at the time, yes even from the media. That is not this same as 'hashed out'. Maybe it was 'hashed out' behind closed doors as some at the MoH tried to work out if the underlying data could be commercially sensitive once multiple requests for the data under the OIA were received.
As they say, the cover up is worse than the 'crime'.
Christ. Only someone dancing on the head of a pin would make such a comment. (reply to Dobbin)

Pretty clear this government is taking NZ down a separatist path of two unequalled nations under the one country - by stealth and without the consent of the majority of NZers.
Let your voice be heard.
PM's dept increases staff by 80% from 186 to 332 in a year. Interesting. I suppose they can keep another 146 staff doing something - somehow. Although I suspect they'll do more harm than good trying to justify their positions.
Attachment 12748
This radical government continues with their plan to scrap the New Zealand democracy as we have known it and replace it with a new entity known as Aotearoa where the 'government' co-governs with Maori.
Hence the so-called 'Three Waters' reforms which includes a mass marketing campaign (propaganda / brainwashing: "Imagine Aotearoa without good water – what a stink as place that would be") -
https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/three-...F7UOJDKUGTJAQ/
And now $2.5 Billion in bribes to councils to allow the goverment to strip them of their water assets.
Once these water assets are locked up in the new crown entity 'Taumata Arowai' - website below - NZ's water will be on a path to be owned jointly by the government & Iwi.
New Zealand does not exist on this website: the country is invariably described as 'Aotearoa'.

'Wai ora. Tangata ora.
Healthy water. Healthy people.
Ko te Taumata Arowai he wāhi whakaaroaro
i waenga i te wai me te tangata, me
tūhonohono tētahi ki tētahi.
Taumata Arowai serves as a reflection point
between wai and tangata,
people and water and their connection.'

'Ko Te Manatū Hauora te kaiwhakarite wai inu i tēnei wā. Ka riro i a te Taumata Arowai te mana whakahaere mai i Te Manatū Hauora ina mana te Ture Ratonga Wai, ko te tikanga hei te wāhanga tuarua o 2021.
The Ministry of Health is the current drinking water regulator. Taumata Arowai will become fully operational when it takes over from the Ministry of Health following the commencement of the Water Services Act, expected to be in the second half of 2021.
We are a Crown entity with a Ministerial-appointed board. Alongside the independent board will be a Māori Advisory Group.
Our name Taumata Arowai was gifted to us by Hon Nanaia Mahuta, Minister of Local Government.
The name creates an identity for Taumata Arowai. Taumata is used to refer to a summit or gathering of people coming together around an important area of focus. This speaks to the importance of our kaupapa, the bringing together of people to reach a shared goal, and the weight and responsibility to our role as a regulator.'

The fight back against Cindy & her team of incompetents begins.
Takes a lot to get the average Kiwi to become really aggro and good on the rural sector to start the ball rolling towards this Separatist divisive government.
Well, to be honest - I find the protests against the so called ute tax in this day and age ridiculous.
Most of the SUV's / Utes these days are driven by city folks on their way to the next latte or avocado sandwich or to bring their children who can't walk anymore to school. They are quite happy to endanger with their oversized Ute / SUV all sort of pedestrians, cyclists and folks in still a bit more economical vehicles, to clog up parking spaces in town and at the same time to drive up our CO2 emissions.
It is a great idea to tax these environmental monsters which as well drive up our road deaths. Could we please double or tripple the ute tax? This would be a request worth howling for ...
Every Ute / SUV not used on the farm (or for other outdoors work) is only increasing our CO2 output without any benefit other than increasing the ego (to stay with a PC term) of the driver.
I find it difficult to understand how dumb, selfish and environmentally unaware these farmers are to make these highly inappropriate noises in support of the SUV lobby and in that course further polluting our environment. I know there are as well responsible and environmentally aware farmers, but unfortunately its not the quiet ones you hear in the howling chorus wanting to destroy our planet.
Quite interesting as well to imagine that it is the same farmers who now make noises for destroying our environment who hold out their hands if they have to suffer from the consequences of climate change - made worse by the pollution created by the very utes they want everybody to drive as cheap as possible.
Actually - I think they are doing an amazing job to drive voters back to Green and (unfortunately) to Labour.
just another doppelgänger removed :):
SUVs in leafy suburbs perhaps. Utes not so much.
