Sorry to talk politics but this is the only forum I know of where people are both intelligent and reasonably serious.

I believe that at one stage Judith Tizard was made Minister For Auckland. Which to me seemed a good idea to get the city going infrastructure-wise. But I never heard her do or say anything, aside go to some arts show.

Is still Minister for Auckland. And if so why does she never say or do anything ? There are so many initiatives and topics on Auckland. Stadium, Power Supply, Harbour bridge, Motorways, Amalgamation and we never hear from her.

I do not recall ever reading about her or seeing her on tv or the radio. Did you ?

Regards

I didn't believe that. Minister for Auckland, I'm thinking no, Minister for Commerce, Minister for Education etc etc.
Minister for a city??

Actually Minister for Auckland Issues. :eek:


No wonder there are so many j.a.f.a comments.

573481 2007-07-28 16:11:00 If its good enough to have a minister of woman and maori affairs, auckland should fit in quite well, all a bunch of bleaters and blouses plod (107)
573482 2007-07-28 18:23:00 Thanks Techie.

My point is that if we do have a Minister for Auckland Issues how come she gets away with doing or saying nothing about Auckland !

DigbyBecause she's a typical lazy politician. Being the cynic I am, I would expect noise to start being made by her and her promotion team about six months out from the next election... :annoyed: :mad:

573485 2007-07-28 22:14:00 What should she do?

Make some speeches in parliament that get shown on tv
Complain about Auckland's poor infrastructure
Say that Auckland has good infrastructure
Complain about Auckland's many local bodies.
Say That Auckland has a good local body system.
Get a write up in the Herald's 10 page supplement on Auckland last week
Show us her tits

But at least do something to justify and earn her position.

We do get to see/hear from most other ministers

A number seem to be asleep at times.

What makes you think that Auckland is the only divided City in New Zealand?

More importantly. What would YOU do to FIX the problems you perceive?

573487 2007-07-29 03:54:00 Too many damn councils for one. So much inefficiency that its crazy. What we really need to do is harness the synergies between all of them and amalgamate them all to intensify the returns we procure :thumbs: beeswax34 (63)
