Another Unnecessary closure
Taranaki Star June 10. AA to close Hawera Office. Business to be transferred to the i-site run by the Council. What was NOT printed in the newspaper was that the HO of AA are making 4 staff redundant. Closing the current office because they claim the building is not fit for purpose. Hold on - they have used the building since 1950's. Something clearly is wrong here. How many more corporate businesses are going to carry out the same thing and reduce country towns to ghost towns. Banks make huge profits but dont give a s--- about staff or customers. The Council staff endeavour to attract new business and end up getting a church owned business which will be registered as a non profit organisation so pay NO TAX. People we have to speak up loudly and stop the rot.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
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?
-
59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.4% ... It is complicated
