Poll: Have you witnessed anything like this in your area?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

Staff at Hamilton’s award-winning Palate restaurant were left stunned after a robber walked in during daylight and made no attempt to hide his identity.

Police are investigating the brazen incident, which unfolded just after 4pm on Thursday when a man entered the Victoria St fine-dining spot, ripped open the till and fled with a few hundred dollars in cash.

Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.

But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.
