The Libelle liquidation
The first liquidator's report on Libelle Group Limited suggests the company was hopelessly incapable of performing its role in providing the National-Act Government's version of school lunches. The report is one of the bleakest I have read. Libelle was contracted to provide 120,000 school lunches…

The World Turned Upside Down (again)
I went to school first in 1956, not in our brand-new Ford Popular, that symbol of my parents’ accession to the professional status of teacher, but on the crossbar of my father’s bike. The car was rendered redundant by the Suez Crisis and the disruption…

Cuts to Disability Services Are Part of a Class War
Over the last year, the Coalition has unleashed a series of cuts which have been devastating for the disabled community. These cuts are part of a class war — and it's time to organise and fight back, writes Elliot Crossan. March 18th is an infamous…

Is NZ as Stable as Luxon Claims?
By pursuing cuts, selling off assets to multinationals, enabling ACT's attacks on the Treaty and cutting back on climate commitments, Luxon is guaranteeing that NZ will not be stable for long, writes Elliot Crossan. “New Zealand has been and will continue to be a poster…

Failed Conference
Luxon’s team have delivered zero deals out of the multibillionaire conference on infrastructure. This is a fail. This conference exposed this government using a specific highly commercialised language to camouflage their lack of actual ability to do the business. Only those who haven’t dealt with…
