Gone Thank God

Prog Blog has a list of things he claims are gone under . To many of them we would say Thank God:

Options for only healthy in school canteens

Such an descripton – “options”

Biofuel percentage in petrol

Which even the Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment warned about. Hundreds and thousands have died of food shortages due to such mandatory quotas of biofuel as productive food growing land was turned to biofuels.

Legislation to ensure and gas generators are not built

Which would have resulted in not enough power supply to meet demand and no heaters in winter.

Research for equal pay for female

Oh no, a report got canned.

Security of the Commerce Commission

It's still there actually!

Parts of Resource Management Act

Thank God again. Evel supported many of the changes.

High level elected public officials

Not even sure what this means, but losing some can't harm

Plans for early intervention

In what? What a bizarre list. Looks like a cut and paste done without reading.

And then we also have some lies:

Funding for special needs

Actually funding for special needs education was boosted $51 million in the 2009 Budget.
