Protecting the town belt (again)
- 15 Jul 2021
- Wellington Scoop

The “debates” have again fallen into a battle of cliches, where everyone is accusing everyone else of being a selfish privileged boomer or a developer pawn.The final spatial plan is not yet officially back in front of the City Council, but already, Wellington social media are back to firing war zones.

Selling council housing is not the answer
- 8 Jun 2021
- Wellington Scoop
- The Wellington City Council made a peculiar decision last week, unanimously. In one resolution there was a good decision, and then a bad decision undermining the good decision. The good decision was that the Council supported advocacy to the Government for financial assistance for those most in need of rental relief through an income related rental subsidy (IRRS), available to state housing tenants, but denied to Council tenants. The bad decision was that it resolved to begin a process of getting rid of its exemplary award-winning Council housing and to start a distracting and entangled process of slowly but sur

Hoea tō waka, row your own canoe
- 6 May 2021
- Capital Magazine
- In a peaceful cul de sac in Newtown, a stone’s throw from the town belt, sits a nondescript brick house that would attract little interest from passers by, except when music occasionally drifts out through the open windows: a scatter of drums, a glittering harp, voices that glide and soar. This is the home of musician Mara TK, his whānau, and his new record label – Meetinghouse Records. Its aim is supporting and releasing indigenous music that, while recognising the past, fixes its vision squarely on the future.
