    Just a point to note - New Zealand does not have a 'federal' government has New Zealand does not operate a 'federal' system of governance, as the country in not divided into states unlike Australia. New Zealand is governed under a 'central' government known as the New Zealand government.

    Wellington airport has been a political football for decades. It's outrageous that in the 21 century this short runway still can't accept the large jets which have to use Auckland or Christchurch. Yes they have landed large jets but only as a proof of concept purpose.
