Government Pardoning On Hold

Michael from Trentham

Can the newly installed Government be forgiven for delaying/reversing the thrust towards a smoke-free NZ soonest in a thirsty, savage tax-gathering decision on or about its first day in office.

Opting to meet its entire pre-elections commitment to reduce some taxes, the Government found the continued purchase of highly-taxed smokes by the public at large more appealing than the continued reduction of ill-health and painful deaths that smoking cigs produces.

It came as a shock as one was expecting instead a tightening of the laws or maybe even banning to the usage of the dreadful vaping.

Other Government decisions thus far and forward thinking are a lot less controversial and indeed welcomed. A breath of fresh air or is it simply reality and commonsense - and a lot of it affecting Wellington and the Wellington region.

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

If a zookeeper had 100 pairs of animals in her zoo, and two pairs of babies are born for each one of the original animals, then (sadly) 23 animals don’t survive, how many animals do you have left in total?
