Dr Eric Crampton: Nimby in chief
Labels: Eden Epsom Residential Protection Society, Eric Crampton, Southern CrossAs an exemplar of the purest form of Kiwi anti-growth, anti-development orientation, it is hard to beat.
If New Zealand doesn’t beat this particular habit, it is very hard to be optimistic about anything other than emigration.
It is especially hard to be optimistic when the main author of the government’s guide to resource management reform, former Court of Appeals judge Tony Randerson, is also leading efforts to block a hospital expansion in Epsom.
This week, notice of a meeting of the Eden Epsom Residential Protection Society made its way to Twitter.
The Society wanted to raise $20k to $25k to pay its barrister, Michael Savage, to continue efforts to prevent a hospital expansion and new ICU facilities in their neighbourhood.
During a pandemic. When hospitals are overwhelmed.
Come gaze into the void with me.
