Covid update
Unfortunately, it’s not looking good. RNZ has reported there are Delta cases in Wellington.
But we got this team. We’ve done it before, we can do it again. Let’s show the rest of the world how to do it right.
Masks up, sanitiser at the ready, and by now we all know how far 2 metres is.
And if you find you are struggling, you aren’t alone. Check up on each other.
If you see, or even have a feeling, that someone is struggling, reach out. Don’t just assume someone else will. That’s called diffusion of responsibility, and it’s, sadly, what leads to no one doing anything to help.
Even if you think someone else will help, offer. You may be the only one.
We are stronger, better, together apart.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
