Also, is it just me, or has Shame Jones started looking like one of the skeksis from The Dark Crystal?

I wonder where his gentle mystic half is hiding out, maybe Golden Bay or Coromandel? Maybe there's a Motherstone we could find and return the missing half of, so we can save old Otis Claw from this half-man state of being?

CW: Santana Bendigo mine fast-track / Shane Jones is a wanker
The Minister of Environmental Destruction Shane Jones doesn't like critics. After several prominent Otago people opposed Santana's fast track to Hades, Jones offered to debate Ian Taylor in public.
The gauntlet was thrown and Taylor agreed. The debate was scheduled for April 8th at Taylor's studios and would be streamed by the ODT and Stuff.
Today Jones pulled out of the deal, saying he would not take part in any debate ‘"controlled by the Otago media".
Since when has Stuff been an Otago media company?
Santana plans a cyanide-leach gold operation storing arsenic-bearing tailings in a dam located in a seismically active region at the headwaters of major water systems.
It's a project which would never be approved under 'normal' conditions and Jones has realised that he'll lose any public debate with Taylor. So the blowhard Minister is running away.
This reminds me of the time Shane Jones got caught charging hotel porn to his ministerial expenses. The guy's been an utter wanker for decades.
Taylor says the debate will go ahead anyway using a cardboard cut-out of Jones.

NZFirst are channelling their inner-Trump & doubling down on Shane Jones' attack on immigrant MPs.
Winston Peters reckons Green MPs Lawrence Xu-Nan and Francisco Hernandez should "show some gratitude" for being in New Zealand. Negativity, meet ignorance.
And where's our PM when he's needed? Is he terrified of criticising his coalition partners, or is he just way out of his depth again?
Xenophobes Peters & Jones truly are yesterday's men.

My cartoon in today's https://www.thepost.co.nz/nz-news/350442881/cartoon-october-8
The fast-track bill has 149 projects on it... some good, of course, but some... definitely not good. Not good in the slightest.

Shane Jones is a blustering fool. In a May meeting with his seafood industry mates, Jones demeaned High Court Judge Cheryl Gwyn, who has awarded Customary Marine Titles to Māori. Jones called her a “Communist Judge”.
The Cabinet Manual states that ministers should not express any views... reflecting adversely on the impartiality, personal views, or ability of any judge.
Luxon "doesn’t believe it is a Cabinet Manual matter".
Meh!
