Lauren Dickason trial: Children lured to their death with arts and craftsForensic psychiatrist Dr Simon McLeavey reveals the account murder accused Lauren Dickason gave her on the day she allegedly murdered her three children. On that fateful day, Dickason picked Liané up from school who appeared sad while Karla threw a tantrum. She considered a number of ways to do this but it was too violent and messy, Dickason told McLeavey. After the death of the children, Dickason thought about how she would take her own life and at this time was shaking and sweating profusely. Waking up in hospital after her failed suicide attempt, Dickason told McLeavey she was “devastated to be alive”.

The Finance Minister of New Zealand has reportedly held meetings with public service bosses to explore options for cutting back on spending. However, the Finance Minister, Grant Robertson, denied these claims. According to reports from the NZ Herald, Robertson met with public service bosses as recently as Wednesday. David Seymour, the leader of the ACT Party, also expressed his concerns about the government’s approach to spending cuts. Overall, discussions between the Finance Minister and public service bosses have taken place to address the need for spending cuts.

On Monday, National launched its transport policy for the upcoming election, showing that at least National have learnt how to recycle, with the policy largely recycled from their 2020 campaign, which itself was mostly recycled from 2017. While it certainly is much nicer and safer driving on a four-lane divided highway over a two lane road, that’s not the basis for a good transport policy. This is not surprising, given the large cost escalation of transport projects in recent years. Public TransportNational have included just four public transport projects in their policy – and as noted, two are already underway and the other two have large caveats. This is a transport policy that aims to set NZ back to the 1960s rather than set the country up for the future.

Nicola Willis, the deputy leader and finance spokesperson of the National Party, says she hasn’t read the Council of Trade Union’s document which attempts to calculate the cost of her party’s policies. The National Party has released a long list of policies but hasn’t yet explained how it will fund most of them. However, this is not a policy that the National Party is currently committed to. This would leave the next government with just $4.2 billion for new policies, which would be more than absorbed by National’s $7 billion to $8.5 billion tax cuts. Finance Minister Grant Robertson said this week that any tax cuts that were announced as part of the election campaign would be fully funded.
