Humanitarian, I think.. concerned, bewildered, but hopeful.
Retired builder, golfer,
This is the valuable work Regional Councils can do…. keeping District Councils in line.
In this case the Rotorua Lakes Council willingly discharged in to the local streams for years!!

Leachate Luxon feels appropriate 🤔
Will we have no watchdogs in the future🤔

MetService…
Brickbat for you
These tradies forecasts are bloody joke
You are just taking the piss!

“Stand up those frames and fire up the barbie”
Do you actually thing a tradie looks at these forecast before doing any work!
My advice to MetService
Pull ya head in🤬
It’s just mockery, ya 🤡’s

This was National’s pre election blurb…
Doesn’t mention austerity, increased unemployment, business insolvency, health care disaster, public service pain, migration loss, hammering the vulnerable, kissing tRump’s butt, ignoring climate change and more.
It was never about the people… was it Luxon!

Recently a golf club in Rotorua was criticised for lighting a fire that burn green waste in an open fire season.

Below apparently are the rules or the game🤔

Has there ever been a fire’s smoke that has remained in the property🤔

Offensive and objectionable smoke..so subjective and unworkable🤦

Waka Kotahi now have a disclaimer out for license holders over 65, miss information!
A couple of Aussie sites have creating this. Click Bait.
November 8, 2025 at 12:46 AM
For all you oldies out there, this site along with Huey.com are all horse shit.
There is a driver’s license post that is all crap as well. Click bait!

Even if it has NZ Govt on the site, be wary🤔

After all, this govt are all crap anyway🤦
Best of luck then🤣

I would imagine any sale price down the line would still command $10 mill…
Interesting reading for homes.co from a Onetangi beach property

Arguing the average property values haven’t moved as shown at the bottom you could imagine.
and the council feel for that, noooo no special treatment 🤦

I’ve read of this scandalous practice before… doesn’t it just remind what appalling dirt bags they are🤬🤬
Trump ruins the soybean export market and Vance steals the land👊

Variable output of wind and solar at peak demand is a major issue… Chinas answer at the moment is new coal powered stations waiting to pick up the slack as required.
It is an issue that will take time to resolve.
One of the down sides of expecting your economy to grow at a minimum of 2% per year

Did you become PM just to increase your wealth, implement targeted changes in tax deductions and bright lines rules to benefit personally… your fore fathers would be horrified… just like the rest of us. You make me 🤮 it’s called using your position for a pecuniary advantage, illegal me thinks, ffs!!
September 21, 2025 at 5:00 AM
This is some of the advice you receive when you ask AI how to improve the economy and it’s certainly not what our govt are doing. 😱 No mention of rewarding financial supporters with favourable contracts and appointments or tax breaks for selected sectors that coincide with MP’s business activities!!
September 18, 2025 at 8:29 PM
And what does this tell you!!
September 6, 2025 at 10:35 AM
Winston waffling again..

Particularly interested in the last paragraph referring to a pragmatic approach to maintaining services during an upgrade.
Result, bin the Awatere and suspend rail freight for 4 years plus!
Great start!!
$13.4 mill spent and…
just another gravy “train”

The height of incompetence and vested interest!
Peters & Willis argue 3-4bill too much for major infrastructure investment to link our 2 islands. Brown was happy to spend 1 billion on Northland roads, a coalition deal with Peters🤔
No bloody ferries ordered yet, 4+ yrs waiting! & 2yrs to get here!
August 17, 2025 at 8:00 PM
There is not hiding tRump… you are a creep of the highest order
July 24, 2025 at 4:45 AM
No “leftist” men in sight.. is that you is the background 🤔
June 24, 2025 at 10:29 PM
Remember recently when you wondered what dirt Putin had on Trump….🤔🤔

A bit of light reading tonight… I get a very strong impression the NACT1 are currently breaching at least 7 of the 13 basis human rights in this country
Certainly not government by the people for the people is it!!
1 example, political opinion… penalising the left is staggeringly obvious $$$

History of trade with India… fell in the last 5 years of the Key Govt.

Grew again in 1st 3 years under Labour and Covid seemed to screw things up🤔

Meat and Dairy totalled $2.8mil
of the 392mil traded in 2023

If Luxon thinks he can “ thicken up” beef & dairy trade, I say..
It’s not fucking gravy!

To the Rotorua Police, this intersection has been used as a burnout pad for months, serious amount of rubber laid down and tire remains
over the road last time I drive past 25/01/2025!!
Get off your astonishingly inept backsides and sort it out before some unsuspecting motorists dies 🤬
January 29, 2025 at 4:02 AM
Apparently, if can arrive at work quicker that’s economic growth😵‍💫
That’s up there with chocolate and paperback prices at airports and allowing tourists to work remotely while in NZ.
Can’t wait for upcoming initiatives😆

Owners of the Bluebridge below …this is what Nicky “Noboats” is referring to when she suggested the govt were looking for options from the private sector!!!
Dick around long enough and the Bluebridge might fill in the gaps.
Prediction… Winstone will be a in a home before govt funded ferry turns up!
