He’s carrying on moaning about Covid guidance that kept so many of us alive, while children are getting killed outside schools as a result of his decisions. Went be distracted!

Somehow the govt thinks this is more important than protecting human rights for trans people. What a nasty vindictive govt

Can’t begin to imagine how horrible it must be to be worse than Lemsip which I found so revolting I only took one sip and threw the rest away.

#HeartiftgeCity Needs to ask itself if it wants to be represented by a person cruel enough to celebrate the effective criminalisation of the homeless

Demand the Government support people experiencing homelessness! Everyone should have access to decent, secure and permanently affordable housing. But right now, many people in our communities are experiencing homelessness – living on couches, in cars, in overcrowd...

Mmm. It sure is. I’m in the middle of moving. Have loved living in Auckland but feel it’s time to revisit roots in Taranaki and spend more time with family. Hating the moving process.

Is it convention or law that these people still get called ‘honourable’? Given the way they behave - especially goldsmith - it is a misuse of language

At Rodney District Council an access control system was installed as one councillor was well known to walk through staff areas and rifle through and read papers left on staff desks.

Well, on 4th time of trying - including one search when I was denied access to Waka Kotahi website I think I have worked out the roads are open but it will be a slow trip with lots of traffic management sites. Not surprising after the recent extreme weather.

Just trying to check on state of roads between/Auckland and New Plymouth. Infuriating that neither the nor NODC nor NZTA bother to tell you what any of their map symbols mean.

Briefing another party on a draft plan is not the same as a bipartisan approach to developing a plan. Bishop is a pratif he expects people to take a road - focused plan seriously

I used to live next door to a metal quarry. 85dBa is hideously loud when it’s next door and continuous

You know we know you’re not creating jobs. That’s why so many of us are leaving the country. One imported game is going to make fuck all positive difference

The north Rodney people wanted to break away from Rodney well before the creation of Auckland Vouncil. Parts of north Rodney are white flight areas so I can see why the racist KDC appeals to them.

Claiming most people want to work last 65.Any evidence? What if you’re doing heavy physical labour or in a mind bogglingly irritating corporate job and are just holding on until you can retire. There are lots of ways to be involved in the community that are more meaningful than many jobs.
