Wow, how it has changed, this once was the corner of Kapiti Road / Amohia Street Old SH1. But what year/decade was this photo taken?

I remember the old gas Station in front of the old Paraparaumu Hotel, but I don't remember the dairy on that corner, when did the dairy go? Was something else there before it was redeveloped into the the current BP site? The photo shows a Shell sign, and Shell later become Z, how did it end up BP?

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?
