HAKA HEAVEN AT TMP

Michael from Trentham

So in Auckland last Sunday evening, the Guiness world record for a mass haka was achieved with just a small crowd of around 6500 Aucklanders.

I know Wellington could easily do better.

Just get the Upper Hutt City Council to spearhead a mass haka at the massive and well groomed Trentham Memorial Park on a sunny afternoon and we will nail it, hopefully doubling the yet ratified world record.

The event would not only be a world record haka attempt but an occasion to showcase other attractions and allow for the presence of mobile food outlets.

The haka the All Blacks and Black Ferns perform are famous and very well regarded world wide. World tv such as CNN featured the record breaking haka on their news programmes.

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?
