Let us end this carnival of cruelty, rehabilitate and rehome the horses, and stop the corrosive influence of gambling donations on our politics by banning them outright.

Data infrastructure isn’t mature enough to replace traditional census. Even with sample surveys. Data for hard to reach and minority populations will suffer. Population estimates and characteristics for Māori populations will be adversely impacted. NZ has had serious issues with census quality tho.
