TRIPLE PRICE AT BREWTOWN

Michael from Trentham

The Brewtown, Upper Hutt new year eve party is heading for its fourth or fifth year and has been a great success apart from toilet issues.
Good bands, good food, great craft beer, great venue, good atmosphere and little or no need for police action.
But from $40 per person in past years for non-VIP entry fee it has jumped to $119 right now and shortly will incrrase for "late bookers" to $139.
Nothing much has changed in band/entertainment quality to warrant such a huge increase. And from being under cover fir the first 3-4 years the show is now fully outdoors which subjects revellers to any conditions.
Two years ago the weather was coldish and breezy.

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?
