Aside from the fact that he hasn’t met his obligations to his tenant, by the sounds of it, what sort of processes were followed in the failed development of the section? Sounds bizarre.

NCEA has always had literacy and numeracy requirements to gain the final qualification. The difference now is that the assessment of these requirements have changed whereas before if you did okay in one of the liberal arts and Maths or Science you probably had the requirements without really trying. I personally like the fact that it is a little more rigorous now.

My son was in NICU. I thought of his time in hospital as soon as the news about the Palestinian hospital broke. This is terrible.

Guess I had trouble parsing that sentence in the article. Makes sense.

This seems like a key infrastructure issue to sort out. Didn’t realise that we don’t own our ferries!

Am I right in thinking that modifying a circuit by moving the white line is unprecedented? In Indy 2005 they refused to make changes to the track (not that I can think of any that would have worked in that situation).

It seems like a safe solution to a situation that shouldn’t have arisen, though.

I wonder when NZ will move away from the quasi-free-market-but-funded-by-the-government system in health (and education). It leads to outcomes like this which are clearly inefficient. I’d like to see more centralisation.

I guess this means that we’re going to see an F1 race in Vegas every year to justify this investment by Liberty.

Nice to see Piastri show what he can do, and no doubt he’ll learn from the re-start experience — although I suspect Max would have had the pace to get past eventually in any case. Good for Gasly and Alpine also.

Harsh penalty for Lewis — I’m with Brundle on that one.

Nice to see McLaren consistently competitive lately.

Hope that lessons are learned from the experience of the East Coast. Forests are fine until they’re harvested, and then your hillsides crumble in rain and your roads with them, and your beaches are covered with slash…
