Porirua Book Club
YES! It's been a looooong lockdown, and we've survived by reading! Porirua Book Club starts again this Monday, 25th May. Please email fejoac@gmail.com if you're interested in attending. It's very low key, and at the moment, we just pick up a bag of books from Porirua library -WHICH IS OPEN AGAIN HOORAY! - and we all read the same book, have a chat about it the following week, and have some nibbles. A different member hosts it each week. That's us.

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?

59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!

25.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.4% ... It is complicated
