Poll: Have you ever attended a council meeting?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

A meeting of the South Waikato District Council turned into little more than a farce after a local YouTuber and “citizen journalist” refused to turn off his camera, leading to the meeting being adjourned.

What was to be the first full council meeting of the year, with important decisions to be made on Waikato Water Done Well legislation, and rates rebates for Kinleith MIll workers destined to lose their jobs, almost didn’t make it past the opening karakia.

I have two faces, but show you only one.
I once had guests, but now have none.
I’m rarely bloody and seldom blue.
I’m often promised and sometimes new

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
