Janet Muggeridge, Ross Halliday lunchtime concert, Wed 18th Oct.

Chris from Lynmouth - Moturoa

The last lunchtime concert of 26 of this winter's series features a well known duo of Janet Muggeridge (Vocal) and Ross Halliday (Vocal & Guitar). Janet and Ross combined forces several years ago to play at the Taranaki farmers' market every Sunday morning as well as playing at cafes, parties and weddings. They perform a delightfully eclectic range of songs including originals, folk, americana and kiwi numbers. The songs feature Ross's beautiful fluid electric guitar and Janet's rich vocals. The concert is at the Methodist Centre (Whiteley Memorial Church), Wednesday 18th October at 12.15pm.
Koha appreciated which will go to the Taranaki Retreat.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?

Electricity Profits

Don from Whalers Gate

Holy Moses, Contact Energy made a small profit for last 6 months, only 44%

This is just unbelievable, talking about Luxon and his wealthy mates ripping us off in the challenging times.

Why does the government want to put a LEVY on the poor citizen of NZ, mainly to fund the LNG Storage Facility in Taranaki.
