Shameful behaviour

Kayla from Frankton

Was at Countdown just a minute ago and there’s this young idiot booting in the car that’s driving through the car park, next minute they’re fighting and the old Maori guy who got out of the vehicle has a bleeding face and getting bandaged up. The young guy and his smart mouth girlfriend carry on walking past the work and income running their mouths so proud of themselves.. what a generation. And it’s sad to say that it’s my generation down that majority have no flippin respect for anyone. No consideration for the kids looking on.. or the elderly people breaking into tears watching on. Poor lady I hope she’s ok. She decided to get in her car and go home instead of shopping. What kind of role models are our children and grandchildren gona have. Very sad

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.
