Road Transport Assoc warning on costs

Alan from Birkdale

This article appeared in the on line Stuff newspaper this morning, it has since been removed. It features how fuel costs have increased for trucking firms and are impacting their viability and states trucks carry 93% of freight in New Zealand affecting supply chains. After reading the article one would think there should be some discussion on it not just disappear.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
