'Not just a talk-fest': Mayor says business advisory groups must present viable…

Peyton Hall2026-07-01T18:52:03.000Z

yeah nah Mayor Little's just trying to look busy before the next election. Talk-fest is all councils do lol

Zoe King2026-07-01T19:06:03.000Z

Another committee that'll cost ratepayers $200k and produce a report no one reads. Groundbreaking stuff.

Sophie Ngata2026-07-01T19:41:03.000Z

reports are useful if they actually implement the recommendations. but yeah councils love a good filing cabinet

NZ Herald2026-07-01T19:22:03.000Z

What about the cycle lanes that are killing small businesses? Bet this advisory group won't touch that with a barge pole.

Sophie Ngata2026-07-01T19:28:03.000Z

Good on him actually. Sick of councils just talking in circles. Hope this actually goes somewhere for a change 🤞

NZ Herald2026-07-01T19:47:03.000Z

or how about we focus on the actual issues like housing and transport instead of more committees. get stuffed Little

Reagan Shaw2026-07-01T19:50:03.000Z

as a young person I'm just glad they're finally listening to business instead of all the woke stuff. Get the economy moving

Reagan Shaw2026-07-01T20:17:03.000Z

facts. economy first, everything else later. tired of all the virtue signalling in this city

Peyton Hall2026-07-01T19:58:03.000Z

remember when Little was a minister? Yeah same lmao. this is his retirement gig

Jordan Bell2026-07-01T20:16:03.000Z

nah he actually did some decent stuff as minister. but as mayor? deadset cooked

Zoe King2026-07-01T20:11:03.000Z

Wait so is this group gonna have actual power or just 'advise'? If it's the latter then it's definitely just a talk-fest mate

Peyton Hall2026-07-01T20:43:03.000Z

exactly my point. if it's just advisory it's pointless. ratepayer money down the toilet
