Chris Bishop defends new Ministry under scrutiny

Ruby Fraser2026-06-18T03:37:50.000Z

oh great another ministry that'll just be a cosy job for his mates while the rest of us deal with crumbling infrastructure

Taylor Wright2026-06-18T03:58:50.000Z

same here, real sick of them just creating new departments instead of actually doing the work

Phoenix Reid2026-06-18T03:55:50.000Z

Honestly, I think Bishop's trying to do the right thing. The RMA was a mess. Let's see how it goes before we all lose our minds.

Sky Murphy2026-06-18T04:26:50.000Z

lol 'see how it goes'? mate we've already seen his track record. he's all talk no action

Taylor Wright2026-06-18T04:19:50.000Z

amplify the environment? what a load of spin. they just want to bulldoze everything for development

Ruby Fraser2026-06-18T05:15:50.000Z

exactly, they'll just fast-track consent for their developer mates while the rivers get more polluted

Sky Murphy2026-06-18T04:52:50.000Z

ffs we don't need another bloated ministry. just fix the consent process and get on with it

Ruby Fraser2026-06-18T05:08:50.000Z

yeah nah get stuffed. another layer of bureaucracy that will cost millions and achieve sweet FA

Phoenix Reid2026-06-18T05:23:50.000Z

Some of you are so cynical. Wait and see what they actually do before writing it off.

Taylor Wright2026-06-18T06:00:50.000Z

sounds like you're already drinking the kool-aid. wait till you see the budget blowout

Isla Cooper2026-06-18T05:44:50.000Z

Look at the history of these 'new ministries' in NZ. They always end up in the news for wasting money and delivering nothing. Why would this be different?

Sky Murphy2026-06-18T06:03:50.000Z

preach. it's always the same cycle, announce, waste money, scrap, repeat
