When a young Eva Kollisch arrives as a refugee in New York in 1940, she finds a community among socialists who share her values and idealism. She soon discovers ‘the cause’ isn’t as idyllic as it seems. Little does she know this is the beginning of a lifelong commitment to activism and her determination to create radical change in ways that include belonging, love and one's full self. In addition to Eva Kollisch’s memoirs Girl in Movement (2000) and The Ground Under My Feet (2014), LBI’s collections include an oral history interview with Eva conducted in 2014 and the papers of Eva’s mother, poet Margarete Kolllisch, which document Eva’s childhood experience on the Kindertransport.

Auckland has a beautiful big tree in their CBD, and thousands upon thousands lined the city's streets yesterday for their annual Santa parade.

But here in Wellington, we have a few cheap lighting trusses as a tree and the days of the big city Christmas parade are long gone.

It led Nick to ask - is the Christmas spirit in Wellington dying?

Capital Letter: Georgina Campbell on the scathing report into Wellington Water 8:42

منذ 18 hours8:42

8:42

A scathing report into the management of Wellington Water has found the organisation is paying up to three times as much for unplanned pipe maintenance as comparable councils in NZ - so how did this happen, and how will the region's councils respond? Also, the government has released a tranche of documents into the work to replace the Interislander ferries. What do the documents reveal?

Dr Bryan Betty: Wellington GP on the government's new tele-health initiative 12:30

منذ يومين12:30

12:30

Health Minister Simeon Brown has unveiled plans to launch a tele-health service, allowing patients to see a doctor or nurse from home via their mobile device. “This service will mean Kiwis can access primary healthcare from anywhere in New Zealand, 24 hours a day, seven days a week with the ability for GPs and nurses to also issue prescriptions or make referrals for lab tests," Brown said yesterday. Dr Bryan Betty, a Wellington-based GP, said tele-health is a good solution for those who need to see a doctor urgently for an illness like a cold or sore elbow - but isn't the answer to the problem of thousands of Kiwis not having a GP. He joined Nick Mills to discuss the announcement. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.…

Nick Mills: Wellington Water has fleeced the capital's ratepayers 8:41

منذ يومين8:41

8:41

OPINION We were warned a report was coming out on Wellington Water. Not even people in the media or on our councils thought the report was going to be this scathing. There is a lot of shock around Wellington right now. And we’ve always suspected it, but now we know just how bad Wellington Water has been managing our pipes and our money. The entire report can be summed up in two lines. The first; we are being fleeced. The second; the management of Wellington Water has sat back and allowed it to happen. The headline out of this report is that ratepayers in the region are paying nearly three times more for unplanned pipe maintenance compared to other cities like Hamilton and Christchurch. Three times more. And no one seemed to bat an eyelid. Contractors have been creaming it because the management of Wellington Water is clearly just spraying money around. All while our rates skyrocket, almost solely because of the huge sums we're told need to be invested in water. And the crazy thing is, we don’t know how much this fleecing has cost us. Wellington Water chair Nick Leggett said yesterday it's in the millions - but we don't know any more than that. And it’s not just about the cost. The report also highlights a lack of oversight and the possibility for staff to commit fraud. O ne alleged case of fraud has been found, with Police now investigating. At the centre of all this is Wellington Water’s chairman, Nick Leggett, who has apologised and is now “pausing for thought” about whether he stays in his job. Leggett admits that Wellington Water has failed to deliver value for money and acknowledges that concerns raised by staff and council shareholders were not listened to sooner. But is an apology enough? I'm not going to call for Leggett to go. Let the water settle first. He's only been in the position for less than two years, but let's get to the bottom of what's happened first. Some are calling for him to go; Upper Hutt Mayor Wayne Guppy has been direct, saying "heads have got to go". But Porirua Mayor Anita Baker has pushed back, calling talk of resignations “absolutely stupid” and praising Leggett and new CEO Pat Dougherty for driving changes. And let's be honest, this is an issue that goes way beyond Nick Leggett or the current leadership. This has been happening for years. We have been fleeced for years. Wellington Mayor Tory Whanau has also weighed in, demanding answers from the board and leadership about how this situation was allowed to develop over such a long period. And she’s right. How can something like this happen? What other organisation pays bills three times more expensive than everyone else without noticing? Why was there no deep dive earlier? Wellington Water has been in the headlines constantly. remember the fluoridation debacle? Or the $51 million budget error that slipped through the cracks? It’s completely dysfunctional. And the Prime Minister said as much yesterday. “A unique corruption" he called it. And let’s not forget the bigger picture here. Wellingtonians are paying the price for these failures. People are leaving this city because they can’t afford it. How are those people feeling today? This is a mammoth scandal. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.…

Business Panel: Kaffe Eis owner Karl Tiefenbacher and property developer Mark Quinn 33:17

We're told a housing boom is on the way in the capital with a new district plan allowing for more higher-density homes closer to the city. Has this made it easier to develop in Wellington, and what will it mean for house prices? Also, f or the first time the Wellington City Council has responded to public concern over a cycleway project, voting to investigate reinstating carparks to Glenmore St near the Botanic Gardens. It's the fifth u-turn in a year, after the Reading Cinema deal, airport shares sale, Begonia House and Khandallah Pool. Is this the council responding to residents' concerns, or does it demonstrate they don't properly consult before making decisions? To answer those questions, as well as discussing the Golden Mile, Wellington Water and citizens arrests, Kaffe Eis owner Karl Tiefenbacher and property developer Mark Quinn joined Nick Mills for the Business Panel.

It's a fact that has dumbfounded some of Wellington's city councillors. Why does the heart of New Zealand's government, the Parliamentary precinct, have the same heritage status as a giant rusting oil tank on the other side of the city? Derelict buildings with heritage status are something Wellingtonians have discussed for years, and now the Wellington City Council is supportive of the government changing the law.

Simon Casey: Remutaka Rd Action Group leader on the idea of a new toll road to the Wairarapa 11:09

منذ 9 أيام11:09

11:09

A new group is calling on the government to investigate a new road between Upper Hutt and the Wairarapa - aiming to do away with the current accident-prone Remutaka Hill Road in favour of a safer toll road. The group has investigated four options and estimates a new route could halve the 33-minute journey between Featherston and Upper Hutt. The most expensive option would cost $1.4 billion and would involve building through a valley towards a 320m-high tunnel. The group's leader Simon Casey joined Nick Mills to discuss the idea.

Grieg Wilson: Wellington bar owner on being told he cannot advertise to students during O-week 7:04

منذ 10 أيام7:04

7:04

Wellington bar owner Greig Wilson is in a dispute with the Wellington City Council after being told he couldn't distribute pamphlets advertising his bars during O-week at Victoria University. Wilson says he's distributed the flyers for years - but the Victoria University of Wellington Students Association complained to the council's licensing team that the flyers promoted a drinking environment with minimal pastoral and safety services. The council subsequently wrote to Wilson, saying "from the inspectorates and police point of view, we believe that licensees must not be targeting students to draw them to their bars”. Wilson, who owns popular bars including Vinyl and Shady Lady, says he is now seeking legal advice and spoke to Nick Mills about the situation.
