This whole saga is not about a Marina. The Marina is simply the icing on the cake, a tool, a mechanism for ramping up property prices, ruthlessly disregarding Environmental Impacts along the way.

I admit I do not have a deep knowledge of the issues in some of these specific cases, but in general when you look around you can see deveopments which smack of crossing the councils palm with enough money to make them go away.

The judicial system is one of the burgeoning elite systems in this country that essentially operate along side and outdie of the democratic process, since they are not all replaced when a different government gets in or if public opinion turns agains them.

Secondly the environment is a fragile thing so envrionmental protection should get the benefit of the doubt more often. If there are downstream unforseen consequences who mops up?

Thirdly, there is economics – politicians love going on about our clean green image and how we can make money off it, but are seldom interested in putting their money where their mouth is. If we’re not very careful we will kill the goose that lays the golden egg.

Fyi – Mr Sad Hungover Christmas Elf –d4j has reunited a couple dozen kids back with their heartbroken parents. Later on today I represent a grandmother in de family court who is seeking access rights to her 10-year-old son who is supposed to be in the safe hands of CYFS caregivers, yeah right, the young confused lad only last week set fire to car. Who needs law school eh? Tomorrow I visit a young girl who recently beat her mother to death with an axe because I was asked by family to go visit her locked up in the new hotel Rolly youth justice facility. Your comments about my alienated children and me don’t affect me, quite the opposite in fact as you show yourself allied to a corrupt regime that brings misery by its decrees.

My situation regarding my present predicament with my sad /alienated children was not my fault, as I did not start the raging fire, but I soon got engulfed in the flames of judicial corruption. I like what Clayton Cosgrove, the old school friend of mine recently said, “ Nobody likes false allegations made about you. The only thing you have is your good name and integrity.”

Integrity needs no rules ; Albert Camus

So keep firing those moronic statements out there, I love it when ill-informed conservatives out themselves as fundamentalist fruicakes. Hey besides, your disease is worse than AIDS (in good old NZ we have funding and treatment for that) but we can’t and we don’t want to do anything about pathologically depressed and twisted individuals like yourself.

I had to scoff when I saw the marina proponents on the news tonight, pretending to be ‘Kiwi battlers’. Scoff scoff scorn scorn, these guys aren’t ‘batters’, they are truly wealthy individuals who could afford the best lawyers, hence got their way at the end of the day. Once again big bucks win again.

Hayman – you claim Carter was only following the law. You are once again totally wrong. The court found he did not follow the law – he broke it.

And equally sad is your calling this a flipflop. National’s policy since 1998 has been to remove the Ministerial veto. Sure 16 years ago National did not remove it from Labour’s bill which it passed, but it is quite normal and desirable for parties to improve laws based on actual experience.

As for the environmental issues, well what makes you think Ministers are better placed to decide than the Environment Court?

But if we strike it rich I’m sure “dear leaders” plans will not include reinvesting the money in the productive sectors where it belongs.

There are interesting developments in the great south basin of the coast of the South Is. which might yet get us out of the soup as a country.Do not now how it will fit in with ”dear leaders” wish for us to be carbon neutral though!

There is still more value to be added to that primary industry with R&D, molecular drug production, nutriceuticals (if we must, I have a problem there). I don’t have all the answers.

It didn’t go down the gurglar in the 87 crash at all – it was just a predictable blip. Wait till next time Wall St or Beijing sneezes! It was easily achievable if we had got the message – the world does not owe us a living. Unfortunately we did not get that message with every loony faction and his dog fighting us every step of the way (bunny huggers, treehugers, regulatory bureaucrats, anti-GM, flotsam and jetsam). I know of cases where if the government had invested $10M in the D of R&D they would stand to create a $100M industry.

Even now, when I fear it is too late, we have two choices – to be in the game or not.

Some of my motivation comes from a genuine blue green concern for the environment and the need to move away from property speculation (for which Bob got a knighthood for services rendered to).

What would you suggest?

Meanwhile the bills are still paid through the primary sector which has had year on year productivity growth of 4% which is outstanding compared to the rest of our laggard economy.The disgrace is how R&D spending on agriculture by succesive Govts have halved in the last 10 years or so.
