Hamilton, let’s break the cycle of insanity!

Rudi from Chartwell

Albert Einstein said, “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.” Yet only 18,675 of 115,433 eligible voters (16.2%) have voted in Hamilton’s election as of Oct 3. That’s a dangerous trend.

Low turnout hands power to pressure groups who rally their troops, electing councillors who lack the savvy and wisdom to tackle our city’s challenges. Hamilton’s council debt is skyrocketing, hitting hardest at families and those on fixed incomes. We can’t afford more of the same.

Non-voters, this is YOUR moment! Research the candidates who care about Hamilton’s future—people with heart and smarts to prioritize essentials over flashy projects. Check them out here: hamilton.govt.nz...

Voting’s easier than you think: Drop your ballot at NZ Post, council spots like libraries, pools, or Hamilton Zoo.

While some might view the Huntly east property as a bargain, Huntly real estate agents reckoned living on top of the mining zone makes some buyers nervous they’re going to “just sink one day”. Although, the agents are fairly confident the area is safe.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.
