Covid and Councils

Well, we're not gonna need Conference Centres for a while either. And as several Councils have declared themselves to be in a Climate Emergency, they won't be needing:
  1. those divvies from the airport companies (who just facilitate Nasty Emissions)
  2. Tourism and business development agencies (neither is gonna come roaring back in the next year or three, so just fire 'em all)
  3. Rates penalties set at 10% (when fer gosh sakes, even IRD's UOMI is 8.35% and even that's usurious when OCR is 0.25%)
  4. Festivals, buskers, events and other Covid-Cluster-Generators
  5. 4WD's and SUV's for Council staff who never get off the seal - buy 'em e-bikes with trailers
This Emergency could turn out to be Quite the Tipping-point for Councils....bring popcorn.
