HCC allowing high profile anti-vaxxer to endanger vulnerable members of our community.

Jack from Melville

HCC is allowing high profile anti-vaxxer and 5G conspiracy theorist Billy Te Kahika to use publicly owned facilities in Hamilton Gardens to push his false and dishonest message encouraging vulnerable elderly and unwell people to spurn the life-saving Covid vaccine. The excuse given by bureaucrats for allowing this meeting is "freedom of speech", which is a farcical misuse of this expression, given the amount of deliberate and dangerous misinformation these disease peddlers repeat, and the devastating effect that illegal anti-vaxx protests have had on the latest spread of the Delta variant in NSW. Please read some actual information instead!

Derelict Tokanui Hospital buildings will be demolished and contaminated land cleaned up so the site can be offered back to iwi.

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?
