Power Prices

Martin from Stanmore Bay

Im over power companies ripping us off. Each year they increase the price. My power has gone up at least 20% in the last two years. And they get you by the balls by saying lock it in for two years as it will go up. We are using less power than we did the same period last year , yes less Kwh and yet our bill is now $60 more expensive. Where is the control, where is the commerce commission this is just bulls**t. And whats worse the government says switch power companies to save money 60-140 a year isnt a saving , thats not even a flat white a week. There is no competition out there and they know it. I would go solar but thats not very affordable. Compared to other countries solar is expensive. Other countries subsidize solar. Our government couldn't give a rats arse.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? πŸ›»πŸš¨πŸš“

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
