This ferry was fit for purpose acccording to National, no need for an upgrade.
The cheap option is the default position for them.
Ferries, Cost blow outs, Pot holes etc etc probably all got the same treatment as his Shares - while Wood was Minister up until being pushed..
A big yawn & ignore ;)
Let's make no excuses for Labour
They must of been quite happy with the way Kiwi Fail was running things - no mistake about that :)
No two ways about it with Labour - New Zealand certainly got Hopeless, Cheap, Nasty & ignore with a large dallop of Cluelessness & Incompetence until the Pink dreams & Crisis's becoming incapable of being handled by the new School Boy who got saddled with Ardern's mess, all imploded around Labour's clueless ears, in a manner they could no longer ignore & Kiwi's would no longer tolerate :)
Just another of the disasters Labour have failed on - try Electricity security, Defence Force unreliable flying crates and the multitude of other more visible larger fails - all a product of 6 years of Labour milking any convenient available Crisis for feel good & ignoring the real issues or creating new disasters :)
Just pretend the ferry upgrade is like the PM’s entitlements budget.
No expense spared or value for money there. Spending restraint is for the c-listers.

Labour, Greens respond to new youth offender sentencing category, boot camps
Plenty of screeching from them & the Green Cling-on's whose best endeavours in 6 years amounted to an unholy attack on the security & rights of everyone, aiding & abetting crime, and putting everyone at risk, but for the band of Criminal Scumbags that the Red & Green Ar$ewipes were busy ensuring remained free inflicting more carnage on our Society & Communities .. ;)
Do the clueless Labour & Green clowns ever think they will run any serious chance of being electable to seats of Power again after the Crimewaves they have inspired & encouraged over the last 6 years of their unholy incompetent reign ? ;)
What effective measures did Labour or the Greens put in place to ensure NZ was a safer place ? ;)
Who is paying to repair the damage, and who is carrying the Dozy Labour & Green Cling-ons who support such lawlessness & Crime ? ;)

Tauranga mayoral race: Tim Maltby on council spending and housing
Quote:
In July, Tauranga will choose who will be running their city for the first time in five years. A mayor and nine councillors will replace the four-person commission that has been in place since February 2021. To keep people informed ahead of the election on July 20, Local Democracy Reporting asked the 15 mayoral candidates their thoughts on four topics. Before voting opens on June 29 readers will hear from each of the mayoral candidates.
Good riddance to the tame pets in Tauranga that Labour installed, watched over by the 3 Waters Witch - Mahuta ;)

Lauren Dickason sentencing: Mother expresses remorse for murdering daughters, says she ‘failed’ them
Quote:
“We are disappointed with [Immigration New Zealand]. Why did you insist on Lauren having to submit reports on her mental condition and Karla’s cleft lip within a week of arriving?”
Asked today about the family’s comments on MIQ requirements, Labour leader and former Covid-19 Response Minister Chris Hipkins acknowledged the challenging set of circumstances the family had found themselves in.
“I don’t want to add to that grievance by getting into that debate,” Hipkins said.
“I know that people who worked in MIQ tried really hard to support families, particularly families with young children, but I don’t want to comment on their comments, I just acknowledge that they’re going through a really horrible time.”
Too difficult, or you weren't there ? or were you and directing the Labour MIQ Ph*k-up - Hipkins ? ;)
Everyone knows MIQ / Covid Response was an utter shambles .. right down to your "Open your Legs" performance.
These people and many others deserved a far better standard than what was seen in the imposed Lock Up
Shame on you - HIPKINS - this is a result of Labour's Incompetent Clueless MIQ Directive with you as Minister.
These people paid dearly - but you are the FAILURE and this is but one on a list of failures at your hand.

NZ politics live: Labour MP labels Israeli PM a ‘war criminal’ at Parliament protest
Quote:
Labour's arms control and associate foreign spokesperson Phil Twyford, joined by a number of Labour and Green MPs, told the crowd that the Government had been weak in its response to the Israel-Gaza war.
"Unbelievably after eight and a half months, Israel's bombardment of Gaza continues. The war criminal Netanyahu, he doesn't care how many civilians are killed in Gaza or the West Bank," said Twyford.
Oh look - the first Master of Labour Housing Ph*k Ups tries to reinvent himself as something of more use than a burnt out Dunny brush, after failing School Mistress Ardern's Flagship Housing 101 assignment and then being locked away in disgrace in the back cupboard for the rest of duration ;)
How many Houses again - was it Phil ? ;)
How many got borrowed from the lot before mysteriously included to pad the figures up from near Zero ?
Does dear Leader (Head failed Chippie of Labour's lost Comrade clan and School Master of the Disgraced Unruly and incompetent cause now in hiding) know you're out off the Leash associating & colluding with Chloe the Loose Lip Sweet Petal Green mouthpiece on Kiwi Palestinian Radical initiatives dreamt up in her back garden ? ;)
Best be careful Comrade Phil - If the association becomes known & you P!ss the Headmaster off again - it could be another long lonely term jammed in the locked broom cupboard mounted on the largest mop handle from Grant's clean up crew collection, in the dark out back.. and not missed by anyone .. once again :)
Imagine if it was like the useless Green MPs entitlement budget on flights to nowhere (no public meetings etc) , we could buy an additional ferry. But I don't see you mention any concerns about that, despite your obvious concern about the PM's entitlements, some of which he paid back even though it was all according to the rules !
Let me know when the greens become stale accountants preaching the need for spending restraint.
Ie, we're going to go line by line through each spending item and seek value for money for taxpayers (being so miserable as to criticise small amounts like $30k for some public service event). Though we're gonna exclude everything I benefit most from?
