Labour on Auckland

Labour List MP Damien O'Connor blogs:

The rest of the country subsidises Auckland and provides it with the wealth to exist.

is not a view unique to Damien. once said:

Auckland now sits atop the nation like a great crushing weight

I think it is commendable Damien his views with us. he is obviously positioning to become Finance Minister.

Incidentally a report in 2006 concluded Auckland sends $3.8 billion more to Wellington than it receives back in .
