In my Westside Story, I've just had EQC through and they put my mind to rest and just a floor board here, a tile there and some plaster & paint.
And I do know how lucky I am, mate. I do know how lucky I am. -
Hard News: Dropping the Bomber, in reply to Matthew Poole,
Sue has alwayas had the deepest red hue.
Greens were always just a means by which to be gleen the political scene. -

We have a couple of Zombies in the office again.
They're here in body, but shit scared, their nerves have had it.
Resignations half written, but not yet able to leave. -
Purely conspiracy theory developed in the smoke and mirrors of CERA with the assistance of booze and half truths passed on from mates.
CERA who represent the Govt. interests in Christchurch, that being 60% of the below ground infrastructure, are aware that CCC 40% owner have put off a decade of works on the sewage and water systems in Christchurch.
This is why once a month Victoria St sewer gets vacumed, because our City is no longer sanitary.
Demolition of the buildings in the City has a double benefit of reducing this shitty situation getting worse, and the kicker, all new buildings will pay developer contributions to pay for the work to be done.
If you're in Christchurch City, drink bottled or boiled water. This summer could get yucky.
Then there was the story of, ahem, CCCs insurance.

Salvage rights were extinguished by Prince Gerry.
I am adverse to revolution but ....

Trucks of salvage look a bit different to trucks of rubble.
Please remember this area is under martial law, policed by our military to keep the owners out.

Islander, it struck me today the what an insult Gerry has made to Ngai Tahuriri and their Maori Reserve of Tuahiwi.
For those who don't know, this is north of Kaiapoi (outside of any noise contour), a reserve set aside for Ngai Tahu with the sale (issues still exist here) of Canterbury .... That is now deemed rural and so exclude Ngai Tahuriri from building homes on their own land, set aside for that purpose.
Rik Tau might just tear Gerry a new one, as he's been riding Ecan & the UDS about this breach of s6 & 8 of the RMA for ages. -
Now Gerry has over ruled decades of planning by letting Green Field development inside of the Christchurch International Airport noise envelope.
The key issues are noise & international.
Christchurch knows it's at the arse end of the international market place, & we have space a plenty.
As people sleep & vote, over time housing developments inside the noise envelope will rightfully lobby for flight restrictions, much like Wellington.
The problem is that in order to connections with other flts from SIN/SYN/AKL we need to start or finish in the dark hours reserved for sleeping.
This will lead to delays in connections and a further loss to the economy of the South. -
A tactic designed in part to halt demolition, is to call a building a crime scene because of looting. That salvage/looting is openly happening has a direct implication on the remaining insurace industry. As to demolish and claim for all content being destroyed is fraud.
Unless declared not to be by Prince Brownlee. However he will answer for such a decree to the international insurance and banking industry and so the need for demolition to continue at haste.
