IVY WAS HERE.
I took this photo in Japan in the 1960s and a copy more than 1 metre tall has been hanging in my home for decades. It still gives me pleasure every day.
Some of you may remember the graffiti, especially widespread in the US where it started - "Kilroy was here". It was very popular during W.W II. (James Kilroy was a quality inspector of riveting on ships being built and wrote that after he had completed his examination.) A variation of the WWII graffiti seemed perfect for my image.

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?
