Also, we should penalise politicians who don't deliver their promises.

This would include most of the Labour caucus, as well as the Auckland and Wellington councils.

I kinda respect the "snooze you lose" approach to infrastructure by National, actually. It incentivises moving fast and getting shit done before the other guys get in.
