THE MAYOR AND COUNCILLORS

Jan from Ebdentown

I speak only to my direct experience of The Mayor and Councillors.

I began a conversation with my Mayor and Council in February 2017.
I exercised my democratic right to ask for information and to lobby Councillors.

I began posting to neighbourly documenting the treatment that I received at their hands, to much to go over again here. I stopped when the Library closed

I picked up the saga again when the Library reopened and as a result of my journey and the way I have been treated by my elected representatives, I have learned how our democracy is being eroded by people who don't want to be accountable to their ratepayers.

I hope that you will go back and read 2017 posts and that this has cleared up any confusion as to where I am coming from.

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?
