E30 325i Rag-Top 2956 Report post Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) I was referring to the inaccurate rumour part of the previous posts, I love the way these things get reported, distorted and turned into rumours and stories. You would have to be rather gullible to think any elected government going through such a process would be anything other than squeaky clean on such a high-profile tender. But that won't stop that gormless twat Little and his cronies trying to bash National over it I suppose??

Olaf 3309 Report post Posted October 9, 2015 (edited) Was a bit on TV one last week about this and other parties are not happy with their decision slide it in the back door style it appears. the job of opposition is to provide concrete alternates and competition. Unfortunately there's not much of it here in NZ. The best the Greens could muster is "oh, they should be using Teslas instead". Hmmm, considering that government procurement is based on a solidly defined set of (fleet) requirements (in this case, aspects such as space, safety, running costs, emissions, reliability, cost, servicing, threat, driver scoring, etc); the scoring criteria will be decided before the RFP is released, and the result is decided by scoring the proposals from each supplier against the specified criteria. The Greens, as all parties, could access reporting on the procurement, and would know full-well that the Tesla would not be an option for NZ Governmental use. Still, why should the Greens - or any other f(l)ailing opposition party - let that get in the way of a sound-bite that could possibly attract popular opinion. Or, at least the interest of those who don't critically examine what is printed or read out in the media. EDIT: I saw what you did there. Imagine the headline: "Opposition Parties claim National slipped it in the back door". Edited October 9, 2015 by Olaf Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
