Oh, I know this one! We own Air New Zealand because its former private owners made a series of ghastly decisions and registered an operating loss of $1.45 *billion* in 2001 and the Clark govt stepped in, bought an 82% stake and renationalised it so we still had a national carrier.

"We have a big overstayer problem, tens of thousands more than we suspected, and we have to arm [immigration officers] with the tools to be able to request information from people when they have a reasonable suspicion that they are in breach of their visa conditions."

"We have a big overstayer problem, tens of thousands more than we suspected, and we have to arm [immigration officers] with the tools to be able to request information from people when they have a reasonable suspicion that they are in breach of their visa conditions."

The official advice from Immigration NZ is as of 1 July 2025, there were around 20,980 overstayers. They advise this is a β€œvery small proportion of temporary migrants” given we see 3.6 million arrivals from non-NZ citizens each year - so 0.58%.
This quote (and Trump policy🫠) should be challenged.

This is the bit that worries me. People are so keen to dunk on Andrew Little that they've decided the facts (actual, hard numbers, not even opinion) don't matter anymore. That's not good.

Tamatha Paul Moa Point vote never happened as described. Not only did Councillors invest record amounts, Option 3 was risky & specialist expertise absent (3 Waters would have been useful) Cycleways also came from opex budget, not capex. Context has been removed to paint Moa Point incorrectly
