We got our central library back. There's proper pipes down Taranaki street now. No sewage dripping down Cuba street and Lambton Quay. There's a much safer cycle routes between city and airport, and the basin. The buses aren't cancelled every day What a difference from Wellington three years ago.

TOP backs a Land Value Tax because- 1. it lowers incentives for speculation and encourages landowners to put property into productive use 2. taxing it's value is cheaper and easier as it can't be hidden or easily avoided 3. it discourages urban sprawl which supports the environment
