COMMENT

Gordon Campbell: On The Costs Of Regulating Cost, And Burkina Faso As A Role Model

Funny how “blow-out” gets so readily applied to cost escalation in the provision of public services (hospital rebuilds, the Cook Strait ferries) but when politicians get the figures wrong for their pet projects, its just a matter of opinion.

Martin LeFevre - Meditations: The Polycrisis Is Not Political And National; It’s Psychological And Spiritual
