An election that isn’t solving anything
- Wellington Scoop
- The Wellington local election campaign is coming to an end and it would be overstating things to say it has been dull. The only pinch of excitement came with the emergence of a young Māori wahine, carrying progressive values. When the debates started, it all went downhill. There have been dozens of them, and the only takeaway is that all candidates want a vibrant, inclusive, green city. This set of commonplaces is not helping to differentiate one candidate from another, for example during the conclusion of the Spinoff debate. On the policy front, they all say they’ll achieve their “vision” with better bus services (over which they have zero control) and more housing. And since I want to vote on a vision and its supporting policies, and not for a person, it’s been very hard, listening to the debates and reading candidates’ websites, to feel we have a choice.
