Marvellous Players at the Fringe Festival 2020

Elisabeth from Ponsonby

The Marvellous Players bring to life one of Katherine Mansfield's most acclaimed short stories, 'The Doll's House'. The Players honour Mansfield's perception of class distinction in colonial New Zealand as her characters leap into being with humour and pathos, in the telling of this treasured story.
“ The timing and coordination was superb. Everyone really enjoyed it" Marianne Willison retired Casting Director and lover of good theatre. (U3A Ponsonby)

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?
