Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

    It probably is, come to think of it, Otaki is reliably under an hour.

    There will be a chunk of funding coming from places like RUCs on electric vehicles, I’m not sure what else they plan to use.

      Electric vehicles are from memory about 1.7% of light vehicles, so I doubt they will get 6 billion of funding (plus the other 2-4 billion needed because they used old estimates). Pretty sure they just intend to reallocate funding from other projects (probably to avoid criticism, might try to add these projects to the end of the queue so any already approved projects proceed as planned).

      But to be fair, they probably just won’t go ahead. If a party completes 50% of their election promises, then it’s a pretty good run.
