Big trucks at the Brewery!
Tui Brewery’s Truck show organiser Rosie Rogers said she was overwhelmed
with the response to this year’s show.
“We never know what’s coming and what the weather is going to do, but we feel quite blessed that so many truck owners and drivers want to come here.”
Rogers said she appreciated how much effort all the drivers and companies put into attending, taking time out of their busy schedules to prepare the trucks for the show as well as having them off the road for the day.
“The drivers and the companies make such a big effort and I’m blown away when a company like Menefy Trucking Ltd from Palmerston North turn up with almost their entire workforce. They come along every year and this year they brought 16 trucks.

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?

60% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.7% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
