I’d go for all the slow movements!

And where is the funding for our own arts sector? Let’s attract tourists with our own cultural creativity.

Hobson’s Pledge should do much more than that! A public apology and possibly compensation for the kuia whose image they used so disgracefully without permission. This should encourage everyone to vote “yes” to Māori wards - it shows we need the voices of tangata whenua at the table!

Media probably just published a press release - it’s the weekend. Luxon was explicit-“more tourism, more agriculture (!), more infrastructure.”

On the whole I find them more balanced than some print media. Maybe not Morning Report but elsewhere.

Well, they broadcast his statement at the conference which was explicit about the”more tourism, more agriculture (sic!)…”. That alerted me. It’s the online summary that shifts the story to fees for overseas visitors - and most media have picked that up, probably repeating media release?
