$25 BILLION?! Might be cheaper to just pipe water in from the South Island at this point.
they just fixed the leaks that flood the roads every second day it'd be cheaper.
Look, we need to fix the pipes, but 25 billion? Who's getting the kickbacks this time?
Exactly. Watch the consultants pocket half of it.
Imagine what 25b could do for education or health instead. But nah, let's flush it down the toilet. Literally.
nah but think of the shareholders!

I work on these pipes. They been neglected for decades. You want clean water or not?
so basically my grandchildren will still be paying for this? awesome.
you're probably right, but 25 bil is insane.
Another day, another 25 billion down the drain. Literally.
wtf is Tiaki Wai even doing? Sounds like a made-up name for a scheme.
wrong there. Tiaki Wai = we're about to get soaked.
Beaches are already dirty af. $25b better include free kayak rentals to get through the sewage.
Don't give them ideas lmao.
