The finale of the great TV comedy show Blackadder goes Forth.
Back then I didn't expect one of the funniest programmes ever to end with a scene that makes me cry every time I see it.

Being allergic to something doesn’t mean you can’t love it. It just means you can’t have a healthy relationship with it.

I am going to fight the new anti-cycling Dunedin City Council & their desire to send us back to the 1980s tooth & nail.
This is yet another piece of evidence I need to add to the boxes of evidence.

It’s really important that #Vancouver’s Downtown Business Association, who were originally against bike-lanes, are now among their most vigourous supporters, because of ACTUAL EVIDENCE that they’re better for downtown business than any street parking they replaced.
Safe bike-lanes mean business.

Part 1
Apologies for another lengthy post, but I am still reeling from yesterday's decision.
The decision to remove the requirement for school boards to give voice to Te Tiriti is a LOT more than an attack on the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi and our commitment to bilingualism.

So let’s get this straight. Lifeline is unfunded by govt & needs $2 million. But govt just hands $24 million to Gumboot Friday and is happy to give millions to the bloody Michelin Guide for tourism puffery of dubious value. Everything this govt does is run on vibes.
