TSB Festival of Lights opens next Saturday!
This year you can wander through giant inflatable mushrooms, get tangled in 200 metres of UV reactive rope and be teased by LED monkeys who have 'escaped' Brooklands Zoo.
The entertainment programme kicks off with iconic Kiwi band The Warratahs on 19 December. Special guest and master accordion, Alan Normal will also be performing. Can’t wait!
Make sure you arrive on an empty stomach with a picnic in hand or make the most of the delicious kai on offer from the Festival Hub food trucks on selected nights.
Light up your summer from 19 December – 31 January at Pukekura Park.
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?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
Electricity Profits
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.
