They certainly seem somewhat sluggish on this issue, especially when
John Key has admitted that homelessness has increased on his watch.
After his 2008 victory, he told a gawping nation of gullibles that his ambition was - and I quote him - "to make a difference."
As if to illustrate the difference he had in mind, here's just one
among a few of the world's typical house-purchase deals - the kind of
sad and prosaic little dunger $1m currently buys you in the City of
the Damned:

Risible in all its abject pathos, one can only agree, but it seems
John Key's ambition truly has been achieved; and you can't say fairer
than that, can you?

Tongue firmly in cheek, Tony - just winding up dear old Keith.
I think it is usually TV sports people that refer to the stadium as "CakeTin" - I don't think Aucklanders generally do.
As far as I'm concerned, any oval ground is rubbish as a rugby ground andtherefore Forsyth Barr is easily the best in NZ followed by Hamilton's Rugby Park.

Of course it is - although you have not provided any "proof:. That
greed effectively drives government MPs. Prices in Wellington are now
rising rapidly, both as Aucklanders try to cash in, would be
Aucklanders ralise that moving is the only way of being able to buy,
and as investors realise there is good value out of Auckland.
