Check out our Local Govt Watch pages at the main menu. Wellington already features there, Horowhenua is well worth a thorough read. I was able to watch that Council more closely for 3 years. A micro view at what is happening NZ wide, world wide even. Councils are the trojan horse for Agenda 21 now 2030. And folk didn’t even realize it. Unelected CEOs wield the weight there, not the elected Mayors or Councilors. (Democratic Councils are an illusion). If you hold views as Mayor that don’t align with the official narrative you are neutered. Another eye opening ‘must read’ is at this link, articles by a local Horowhenua journalist. (Do also check out the Mangawhai case … mentioned by Naomi Jacobs at this link).

Independent experts find potential $1b hole in Wellington City Council books
Three prominent Wellingtonians are so worried about the city council’s finances that they’ve paid for independent experts to take a look at the books.
The resulting economic analysis suggests the council could be facing a $1 billion funding gap in unbudgeted costs and is on track to breach its debt covenants.
But the council has hit back, saying the claim is based on old figures and the basis behind some costs is unclear.
The research, based on publicly available documents, was conducted by Castalia on behalf of retired lawyer John Swan, digital entrepreneur Luke Pierson, and businessman Robert Fisher.
The Herald has seen a summary of the analysis in a submission from the trio to the council.
