Warning as our Society gets more problems:

Jeff from Saint Andrews

With a bad experience myself while at the Chiefs verses Lions rugby match I returned to my vehicle where I have been parking in a nearby road for several years as a regular member but this occasion found my 9 month old Ute had been keyed and a tyre let down. Talking to several people I have found this isn't a rare happening but actually more common annoyance than expected with several other stories of similar trouble. These work vehicles and similar vehicles have tyres which cost several hundred dollars to replace and it seems a fair amount of vandalism is stabbing the tyres where the only repair is full tyre replacement. Please keep your eyes out for these lunatics and lets put a stop to more destruction of others lives as this problem is made easier by so many hiding on their computers while the world passes them by.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Derelict Tokanui Hospital site in line for a clean-up

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Derelict Tokanui Hospital buildings will be demolished and contaminated land cleaned up so the site can be offered back to iwi.

The former psychiatric hospital, southeast of Te Awamutu, sits on land taken from Ngāti Maniapoto under the Public Works Act in 1910.
