Two-Faced System

Written by  The Hound

OPINION: If farmers poured just a few litres of some pollutant into a stream, the Green Party and the wider wooden bicycle enthusiast community would be on their soapboxes screaming about dirty farmers and demanding a harsh penalty, which regional authorities would be gagging to administer.

However, the Greens’ silence over the catastrophic breakdown of Wellington’s Moa Point sewerage system is no surprise to this old mutt.

The regional council is unlikely to prosecute the city council, so don’t hold your breath for any accountability.

Successive councils have failed to upgrade infrastructure, and wasted money on expensive, largely empty, cycleways.

Wellingtonians can’t swim in the sea now but could at least go for a nice bike ride. They can thank the Green Party and their woke mates for that!
