North Auckland house fire: Man with 'heart of gold' dies with dog Buddy

Danielle Clent Reporter from Rodney Times

Hi neighbours, a man who died in a house fire at the weekend will be remembered for having a hard exterior but the soul of an artist.
Terrence William Riley, 73, died on Saturday evening when a fire engulfed his family home in flames on Birdsall Rd in north Auckland's Whangateau.
His 6-year-old fox terrier, Buddy, died with him.

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?
