Give Nothing to Racism
I was proud today to join Race Relations Commissioner, Susan Devoy's, campaign to "Give Nothing to Racism".
The campaign, headed by New Zealander of the Year Taika Waititi, is enlisting the support of New Zealanders to show zero tolerance for racism.
Auckland is a city that celebrates its multiculturalism. We are a diverse society with 40 per cent of us from overseas. Largely we have embraced this and our children from different ethnic backgrounds go to school, play, grow up, work together and intermarry.
But while we are mainly a harmonious society, racism still exists. It is negative, destructive and seeks to divide and create conflict between usThis campaign calls on all of us to oppose racism at any level and recognise and respect the common humanity we all share.

Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕
Auckland has a thriving cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures across the country, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️
We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?
