MEDIA ALCOHOL ADVERTISING

Robert from Bryndwr

Personally, I love a beer with a nice Indian curry! I am opposed to any media advertising of alcohol and especially any promotion of it as a necessary social lubricant... The topic is, essentially, about harm minimization. About not glamorizing it to youth and children or those with potential substance and drug abuse problems.
Incidentally, Chloe Swarbrick, (Greens Party) a get-up-and-go person, has just (circa June, 2021) floated a Bill proposal in Parliament opposing alcohol advertising. The Labour Party also has a long held and firm Party resolution on on their books about NO alcohol advertising.

The Alcohol sector has a LOT of Parties' election funds to spread around and can purchase the finest governments money can buy! The Australian Federal Government banned alcohol advertising some 30 years or so ago.

The Nats have NO interest in banning alcohol advertising because, Simon Bridges (my personal eye-to eye meeting with him) says it "will cost jobs." A very typical NeoLiberal political stance.

Parking fees going up in Christchurch

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

The Christchurch City Council, as part of its 10-year budget, the long-term plan, last week confirmed on-street parking in the central city will increase from $3.10 an hour to $4.50 – a 45 per cent increase.

The Christchurch City Council, as part of its 10-year budget, the long-term plan, last week confirmed on-street parking in the central city will increase from $3.10 an hour to $4.50 – a 45 per cent increase.

The cost to park at the council’s Lichfield St car park building will also rise from $2.80 an hour to $4 – a 43 per cent increase. The rate at the Art Gallery car park doubles from $2 an hour to $4.

By comparison, people are charged $4.50 an hour to park in central Wellington and $2.50 on the weekend. Auckland charges $5 an hour for the first two hours and then $10 per hour after that.

The on-street fee hikes are expected to generate $660,000 of additional revenue for Christchurch. That figure would have been $960,000, but the council planned to waive the credit card fees and pay them itself, at a cost of $300,000.

The increase in off-street parking charges is expected to bring in an extra $162,000.
