What doesn't belong in the wastewater network
You know what doesn't belong in the wastewater network? A giant orange cone! And yet...
This cone was found blocking one of the wastewater pump stations in Porirua's CBD last week.
Not too sure how it got there... But our team managed to clear it from the pump station before any major damage was done. ?
In the past we've also found a pair of jeans, shampoo bottles, kids (and adults) toys, money, cellphones, pagers, and A LOT of wetwipes!
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
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?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
