Really interested to hear Christopher Bishop tell reporters that he'd been talking with environment sector ahead of the #fastrack proposed legislation. As CE of NZ's largest & longest serving ENGO, we weren't consulted. We got a letter & 12 days to respond & a cancelled meeting tho 🙅‍♀️

After months and months of gaslighting NZ’s debt level, the Minister of Finance has finally confirmed they will be borrowing more. They wouldn’t need to borrow more if they hadn’t promised tax cuts.

“if you valued #KāingaOra like any other home… it’s been a stonking financial success over the last 5-6 years… the value of its homes, in particular the value of its land, has risen much faster than the value of its debt”: ⁦Bernard Hickey⁩ newsroom.co.nz/2024/05/29/a-c…

So far I’ve counted more than $3b worth of cuts to climate initiatives in the budget - not only no new initiatives in their budget but a slashing of programmes that would have saved kiwis money and cut our emissions labour.org.nz/nationals_clim…

We just handed our petition to Parliament calling on this Govt to release the list of hugely damaging projects they plan to rubber stamp under the Fast-track Approvals Bill. These projects could have huge implications for communities and nature. 1/4
