Another observation, or really a question. When you get the leadership of one of the world's most difficult and challenging sporting and engineering successes, negotiating with the leadership of what appears on current evidence, to be the most inept, failure ridden NZ Government that has ever been, what do you think will be the likely outcome?
$200 Million over five years that will be rewarded by increased visitor numbers increased GST etc and the well being of the team of 5 million when we retain the cup is not OK but one billion for a cycle bridge that won't be used to any great extent is OK Need I say more
If people like this person and it's likers got their snouts out of the tax payers trough and actually contributed --- What's BEYOND belief is the fact that these people can't see BEYOND their tax payer benefit.
Billions of dollars generated from a few million invested, good for all of us.
Sounds way better than all the millions being spent on worthless and useless things like teaching our kids to speak maori talk ---

IT’S a rich folk’s sport and why the hell we’re paying for it is beyond belief.
That's 200 million over 4 years, 50 million/team of 5 million = $10 per person per annum
Be worth it just to prove that little Aotearoa hasn't turned into a poor Polynesian banana republic by then.
....and the ratepayer?
