Blenheim Menz Shed Needs Timber
The Blenheim Menz Shed needs timber for various projects we undertake, typically for schools and local community organisations. Especially native or exotic timbers, but any usefully sized pieces would be very much appreciated. Even offcuts of hardwoods would be useful. If you have any such timber and would like to donate some to the Menz Shed, please email trevor.dennis@xtra.co.nz 03-570-5064
Thanks. Trevor Dennis — Secretary, Blenheim Menz Shed

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?
-
60.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
23.5% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.6% ... It is complicated
