Christchurch Cathedral Restoration-YES OR NO??
Hi neighbours. There has been much debate over the restoration of the Cathedral versus building a totally new Cathedral. It appears as ratepayers that at this stage we will be contributing to the Anglican Cathedral restoration. What has interested me as a ratepayer and a Christchurch resident is how many of us want restoration, how many would rather see a totally new Cathedral built. Given we seem to be contributing we should have some right to an opinion on the subject. I personally have no idea whether 90% want restoration or 90% want a new cathedral. As ratepayers I don't feel we have been asked or consulted. So here is your chance, I don't intend this to be a debate about whys or why not, so if you would like to participate could we simply have only RESTORATION or NEW CATHEDRAL typed. No debates please, nobody wins in heated arguments. Will be interesting to see results
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
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?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
