A product to avoid. "Fisher king" seafood sold by Countdown.
I was foolish enough to buy a packet of 10 fishcakes from Countdown.
Clearly Countdown had thought that they were a local NZ product from a firm called "Seafood Marketing" in Christchurch. In fact, in minute print they are a VERY inferior Chinese import. They contain only 32% of a very inferior fish called Pollock and actually have hardly any taste of fish at all. Not only that the fish is from Alaskan waters and is obviously the product of some of the World's worst fishing methods. In fact I am not at all sure if they are legally "Fishcakes" at all as I seem to remember a figure of about 40% minimum fish for such a product. So beware of "cheap" products, even at a time of price inflation, it seems that supermarkets are not above selling inferior products to keep their prices down.
Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
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.
We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
