Nature and Oteha Valley Rd

I have just seen a heart warming sight and felt the need to share it ..
Traffic along Oteha Rd came to a total stop this morning to allow a determined Mother duck and her eight tiny ducklings to cross the road. Everyone just waited until the small entourage waddled safely across the killer Rd , even better than that was all the faces that were watching from our cars and a large truck were smiling in support .
What a wonderous way to start a Wednesday
I salute you my fellow citizens
Go well Mummy Duck and stay safe

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?
