Poll: Have rising petrol costs affected how you drive?

Jared Nicoll Reporter from Kapi-Mana News

With the record price of 91 nudging around $2.50 per liter, the cost of fueling our cars is terribly high.
We're interested in looking at whether or not people are letting the price increase affect the way they use their car. We're hoping to hear if anyone has changed their habits and what they did to ease off the gas. Maybe people are cycling to work or maybe they're walking kids to school.
Please let us know. Share your experience.
And just remember to add an NFP to your comment if you'd rather it wasn't used in a news article.

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?
