Inclusion, respect, equality. Such terribly wide awake brains consider these. Nana naps… going back to sleep, numbing, dumbing, lobotomy material. It’s the revenge of the privileged feeling like they are not good enough even without their obvious advantages…

He has no idea of how much families are struggling under his watch. “Let them eat cake.” This man only knows privilege and doesn’t even know his own privilege.

Whoa. Thank you Tory ❤️
This report shows Wellington Water has had poor procurement processes, potential for fraud, & a lack of value for money. I'm deeply disturbed by these findings. It is unacceptable ratepayers have potentially been ripped off by WWL & its contractors. 🧵1/4
