Wild weather in the Waikato
The Waikato really copped it over the weekend, with wild weather leaving a hefty clean-up bill that may run into the millions.
While things are looking calmer in the days ahead, there are still plenty of slips and flooded roads across the district β so if youβre heading out, take it easy and stay alert.
We want to know: How did you and your whΔnau get on over the weekend?
Want to see what recovery will look like from here? The Waikato Times has the latest.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, thereβs 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 πͺπ°πͺ
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship β like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

59.6% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.9% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.5% ... It is complicated
