    Culturally perhaps 1970s; but in terms of economics very much back to the 80s/90s neo-liberal reforms.

    Luxon’s speech yesterday spinning a $200B hole in transport funding and the rough state of government’s books is a setup for more UK style austerity. The proposed replacements for 3 waters sets things up for privatisation of water assets. The only thing holding that back would be Te Tiriti, oh and what’s happening in that space?
