Celebrate NZ's achievement on Nuclear Prohibition

Gray from Gate Pa

We know we live in a very special country – just look at COVID!
But there are also other reasons. For decades we have been fighting a long battle against nuclear annihilation, and in a few days (21 January) an amazing treaty will come into effect; the TPNW (Treaty for the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons). No, it won’t make all the weapons disappear immediately, but it will mean that nearly two thirds of the world’s nations are telling the nuclear weapons states that that is what needs to happen. NZ has taken a strong leadership role in getting to this stage with our Disarmament Ambassador, Dell Higgie. This is an historic achievement, so join in the great celebration of this event on Thursday, 21st January, 12.20-2.30pm on-line.
BE PROUD TO BE A KIWI!!

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?
