I find it interesting that they are funding a plastic waka with no tender, and the recipients just happen to be the largest hapu in the electorate of the Minister of Maori Affairs. It's also interesting that he polls indicate he is in danger of losing this seat to the Labour candidate in that electorate, and this is an election year.

But I'm not one to speculate.

So you think the seat can be save with 60m of plastic.?

Indeed, the whole RWC seems to be an AK event now.

Don't you think the people of CHCH are benefiting enough from the government lately?

Nip down and find out what it is like to live in a tent with a portaloo.

Ha, was a keen tramper for years so wouldn't bother me too much. Was more pointing to the hand out to SCF where a majority of beneficiaries were from CHCH
