An email notification from West Liquor Railside

Fiona from Henderson

Just in case you rush down to West Liquor Railside to stock up for the long weekend, it's closed.
Here is the reason why:
"The Trusts announce the temporary closure of West Liquor Railside, 126 Railside Avenue, Henderson.

The Trusts on behalf of Waitakere Licensing Trust today announced the temporary closure of their liquor store at 126 Railside Avenue, Henderson.

After a recent heavy rain event an inspection report was ordered and has identified potential health and safety risks in the building. Allan Pollard, CEO of The Trusts, says although the risks are low level the safety of staff and customers has been paramount.

“We apologise for inconveniencing our customers however while we investigate the issues further, we need to put health and safety first,” Mr Pollard said.

“We will take expert advice to investigate further and look at ways to mitigate the issues and open again as soon as possible,” said Mr Pollard.

All employees will be redeployed to other stores."

In my humble opinion, this wouldn't happen if we could buy alcohol from other places out West instead of the Trusts outlets - but, hey, that's just my humble opinion.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
