PMP Limited - Taking over the Western Leader Paper Run
This is to all people who have had a paper run with the Western Leader for only a little while or done this for many years
PMP Limited is now the company taking over the paper run as well as their own junk mail or advertising. I received a letter from Western Leader or Stuff (what it is called now) saying now that PMP Limited will now take over the distribution of paper now. The last paper delivery will be the October the 11th and you will get your last pay on the 17th October including annual pay.
Stewart Hopper has written a post here about Kids losing their Jobs for Western Leader. Obviously I'm no kid. I'm in my 30's so to speak. Now I understand that we are living in digital age where information is going more online on Ipads, laptops etc but the older people still like to get a paper and I am meaning the elderly. I wonder what's going to happen to these folk who will still like to get a paper every week?
I think there will be complaints about papers not being delivered. This is just my own personal opinion. You can't just cancel the paper deliveries and transfer the newspapers to another company and everything will be "hunky dory" so to speak. If anyone is still doing the Western Leader or any of the other runs like the North Shore times or others, let me know about this. It will effect every Aucklander who has being doing a paper run in their areas.

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?
-
58.6% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.5% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.8% ... It is complicated

Night-time chipsealing works on SH2
From 9 to 17 February, stop/go traffic management will be in place on SH2 between McPherson Road and Dimmock Road on multiple nights between 9pm and 5am (Sundays to Thursdays).
During the day, all lanes will be open, but speed restrictions will apply to allow the chipseal to set and to protect vehicles travelling over the newly laid surface.
There may be delays to your journey when travelling through the area. This is weather dependent so check NZTA Journey Planner before you travel.
