After all unemployment is still rising and this is good way to realise energy efficiency - the sooner the better.

But of course, Greenfly. Without the cycleway, tourists won't fly all the way to New Zealand, and if they don't fly, how can we make ourselves feel good by selling them some daft "carbon-offsetting" tree-planting certificates and hand-stirred eco-lattes?

Using the race card to cover for his own personal lack of integrity is only belittling the people he claims to represent. Is Maori mana simply doing what you feel like when and where ever you want and saying f@#k you do anyone who has an issue with it? The Guy needs to grow up. If someone truly has respect for their people they would never use them to cover their blunders.
