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?

Our grandson (20) recently moved to Kapiti from Taranaki and is looking for accommodation. Anything considered.
He describes himself as clean and tidy, friendly but a bit reserved and quiet.
I would add trustworthy and family orientated.
Wellington’s wild weather is really making itself known — trains and flights are being cancelled, and drivers are being reminded to take it slow and stay safe out there.

Over the last couple of months summer's temperatures in Kāpiti had been up to a degree cooler than average, but recent weeks has seen a daily average of 23.3℃, normal for February. Thursday's (Feb. 12) 27.2℃ was the highest of the summer to-date
The longtime average rainfall for the month is around 60mm and we have had about half that, but this is insufficient to maintain soil moisture, so if the unsettled weather predicted for the next few days delivered 30-40mm it would be good.
The SW winds, with a 'watch' from Sunday evening (Feb 15), were already fairly strong by mid morning.

We want so much to be heard - by our friends, our partners, our bosses, our family.
We want to be truly listened to and heard.
Maybe you weren't really heard when you were young. The parents were busy - understandably. Siblings were distracting. Circumstances were busy.

We want to be truly listened to and heard.
Maybe you weren't really heard when you were young. The parents were busy - understandably. Siblings were distracting. Circumstances were busy.
Where did that leave you? In a not knowing place. Unsure. Uncertain about yourself.
Maybe you craved to be heard which might have equated to craving for love.
Maybe that lead to situations where you were vulnerable and made to do things you didn't really want to.
In therapy, I listen and you will be heard. Not so called "active listening" but real listening which is so much more than active listening. There might even be space in this for you to hear you. To get to know you, to acknowledge you, to have compassion for you.

My wife purchased a Colorado brown zip up leather wallet for me in Australia in November last year. It has never been used, and I prefer my old one. It seems a waste to leave it in a drawer. Can be viewed and picked up at Raumati Beach.
If interested, please txt me rather than Neighbourly … View moreMy wife purchased a Colorado brown zip up leather wallet for me in Australia in November last year.
