Police mirror PM's praise for Ōtāhuhu station cleaner Rose

Caroline Williams Reporter from Manukau Courier

Hi neighbours. It's said that tough times bring out the best in humanity, and that is certainly the case when it comes to our essential workers.
Counties Manukau Police have sung the praises of one of their cleaners, Rose, two days after she received a special mention from Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern for her work during the coronavirus pandemic.
Rose has been working 13-hours days to keep the Ōtahuhu Police Station safe and clean.
"We really value Rose along with everyone else who come to work each day to look after us and enable us to work in our communities," police said on Facebook,
"Rose is a friend to everyone at Ōtāhuhu Station and we couldn't be more proud of her."
Who would you like to thank for their efforts during these trying times?

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?
