Disgraceful thieving *bleep bleep bleep*

Fiona from Henderson

I am sitting here typing this while I am absolutely FUMING!!!!
I would like to know what gives anyone the right to steal from me or from my garden?
How dare you come around to take some free clippings I offered you and then while you were here (in my absence) you decided to steal somethings from my garden - HOW FRIGGEN DARE YOU!!!!
I know EXACTLY who you are and you name will be passed on to the appropriate people.
I have never in all the time that I have been giving free garden items, had anything stolen, everyone was so happy & so grateful. In most cases, they left with extra items.
If you desperately wanted something, all you had to do was ask. I would've given it to you.
I open my heart & my garden because so many people helped me and I want to share the love to everyone around here.
This had now made me even more weary of people and trust even less - AGAIN!
It is only because of that stupid clause called the privacy act, that I am not naming and shaming you here.
You will never ever get anything from me again - NEVER!!

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?
