Local Con man re-appears

Mike from Otorohanga District

I wrote a small article previously regarding being ripped off by a funny (Most people refer to him as creepy) old character by the fake name of Gareth Evans (Real name is Gary Lee Wilfred Evans), has been mucking local people and local businesses around before skipping town for 3 or 4 weeks. He has now returned to Otorohanga somewhere between 64 and 68 Phillips Ave (Wrecks of cars in driveway). If you have met him, he probably would have spun a yarn about being the Famous Welsh Rugby star Gareth Evans. Message back if anyone needs any further information, such as media articles outlining his previous dishonesty and escapades etc.

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?
