🌧🌧🌧 So much more rain is needed 🌧🌧🌧

Fiona from Henderson

The old nursery rhyme that starts off with:
🎡Rain, rain, go away
Come again another day🎡

Please rain, don't listen to us - WE NEED YOU NOW!!!
We need you to rain continuously for days/weeks - not heavily, but continuously - PLEASE.

I've just looked at the Dam levels and we will need to get all the rain dances happening right now, otherwise we will AGAIN be in a whole world of hurt come summer time.
Check for yourselves: aucklandwatersupply.co.nz...

Please keep up with all of the water saving ideas that you are using or have read; I personally DO NOT want to go through another water shortage during summer and nor do all of the gardens (veggies and flowers).

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 πŸͺ™πŸ’°πŸͺ™

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship β€” like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
