The Former Local Government Minister's not taking issue with the Auckland Mayor's new manifesto.
Wayne Brown has laid out his thoughts and a Beehive to-do list ahead of the 2025 Budget.
He scored the Government a B+, saying they're too distracted by mega-projects and press releases.
Simeon Brown told Mike Hosking Wayne Brown is just doing his job.
He says he's the mayor of our largest city and he's advocating for what he believes is needed, even if they don't agree.
The Government's refusing to budge on an Auckland bed tax.
Brown鈥檚 manifesto also includes calling for the government to reconsider an Auckland bed levy, adding a small fee on short term accommodation.
Brown told Hosking they don't want to lump Aucklanders with the tax.
He says in fact the council should be looking for efficiencies in its own budget instead of new taxes.
