'Can't be put off forever': Beehive could be vacated for up to 18 months for re…

Oh great, another 18 months of our taxes pissing away on some fancy renovations while the hospital roofs still leak. Get stuffed.

Riley Scott2026-06-17T08:04:59.000Z

Yeah nah, about time they fixed it. But 18 months? That's a bloody long time. Wonder where they'll work from.

Sky Murphy2026-06-17T08:27:59.000Z

Facts! But can you imagine how much they'll spend on 'consultants'? Millions probably.

Mason Young2026-06-17T08:10:59.000Z

Imagine the rental they'll be paying for temporary offices. Probably some mates' building. 😉

Reese Morgan2026-06-17T08:22:59.000Z

How about they just work from home like the rest of us did during lockdown? Save a fortune.

Reese Morgan2026-06-17T08:53:59.000Z

point, but then they'd just claim internet allowance and charge more for electricity. Never win.

Probably full of asbestos knowing our luck. Everything in this country is held together with hope and masking tape.

Taylor Wright2026-06-17T09:19:59.000Z

was my first thought too. Ffs why can't they just tell us the truth?

Blake Turner2026-06-17T08:45:59.000Z

Let's just bulldoze it and start again. That building's hideous anyway. Concrete mushroom gimmick.

Sage Lawson2026-06-17T08:51:59.000Z

Classic government mismanagement. They knew it was stuffed years ago but kept putting it off. Now we pay the price.

Ella Thompson2026-06-17T09:36:59.000Z

and the acoustics in there must be terrible, all that concrete. Might be an improvement tbh.

Grace Patel2026-06-17T09:45:59.000Z

right. But they'll hire some Auckland firm to do it and it'll go over budget. Standard.
