This page is NO WAY CONNECTED TO THE ONE RUN BY MURRAY GUY

It is a page were Rate Payers and Residents can have their say. Your opinion is valid and everyone else thinks theirs is too.



I started this page because I was tired of some of our Councillors claiming FREE SPEECH, and DEMOCRACY, but I know of three Groups that are administered by Current City Councillors. Papamoa Link has Steve Morris as an Admin. Mount Ratepayers site has Dawn Kiddie and Andrew Hollis and the other Tauranga Ratepayers site has ex Councillor Murray Guy. I believe that these people have a conflict of Interest in being admin of these sites, because if you disagree with them, you are blocked. You will not be blocked from this site, unless you personally abuse other contributors. We do not have agree on everything, but we too have the right to free speech.



It is my fervent wish that Tauranga can go forward, without all the infighting within Council.



Later on we may form a group, if you wish to meet face to face. Let's see how it runs

A saucy rebrand brings te reo Māori to Kiwi fridges and dinner tables

The Team Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours,

Are you looking for a new pantry staple? A Canterbury restaurateur has launched his own te reo Māori-branded tomato sauce after boycotting another for “bastardising” the language.

Fush owner Anton Matthews has teamed up with Barkers to produce Kīnaki Tomato after removing Watties from his Christchurch restaurant because the company poked fun at Māori place names in an advertising campaign.

Matthews, who has become well-known for championing the country’s indigenous language, is proud to have te reo Māori on sauces displayed on his tables.

When he went in search of a new sauce to accompany his kaimoana (fish) and chips in January, they picked a sauce they loved, and asked the Geraldine-based condiment producer if it could collaborate on a label.

“I’m really stoked that they’ve taken a chance on us.”
