Have wages increased by more than inflation under the last Labour government?Might be a self snooker there
I don't think you will find many people who would say that their cost of living has increased by less than their wage growth over the last three years

'I can't send this man to jail': Judge's conundrum in sentencing machete attacker
Jaden Minhinnick sliced off his neighbour's earlobe and left him with a broken arm.
But Judge Mabey was not keen to send Minhinnick to jail, where the consequences of him possibly being forced to join a gang would be more damaging to society in the long term.
So the underlying issue is with our jails. If it was run where gang members couldn't just hang out together then this wouldn't be a issue to put this 'young man' in jail.

I think he's proposing people not being allowed to socialise in incarceration?

Interesting there have been a couple of articles regarding Pt Chev this last couple of weeks. Library closed for over a year, derelict yards and now https://www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/350156051/auckland-township-says-its-terrorised-alcoholics
It’s going to be up to the community to get organised and respond to a growing vagrant problem as police struggle to muster numbers, Point Chevalier residents were told.
Another resident, William Fremlin, who said he worked for the Department of Corrections at Mt Eden prison asked the crowd to try to have compassion for people on the street.
“I hang out with half of those people, and most of them are hungry. Some of them are alcoholics and opportunists, but other genuinely just need hope given back to them,” he said.
“We need a non profit organisation setting up meals and cups of tea in the centre, but all I’m hearing is that it’s alcoholics.”

Half million dollar raised crossing in Auckland. That’s why we don’t get potholes fixes, have low productivity, no new roads and public transport fares need to rise.
I don't understand in a climate crisis why we purposefully slow cars with raised crossings so when nobodies using them, everyone, every single time has to accelerate heavily again and waste fuel.
The Greens should be smashing them on this, not part of the party that backed it all - I know road lifting is not as interesting as shops, but anything that increases co2 is their bread and butter.

So you are saying nations have no right to blockade and sanctions foreign vessels their own waters, in response to illegal military actions?
If so NZ, AUS, UK, US, CAN have quite a bit of explaining to regarding seized Russian assets.
NZ First's Associate Health Minister Casey Costello has a lot of ideas about the regulation of tobacco - many them will be controversial.
Official documents suggest a NZ First minister wants to freeze excise tax on cigarettes - but she denies it
Instead of increasing each year with inflation, the tax on cigarettes would be frozen for three years under a plan suggested by Associate Health Minister Casey Costello.

Was it the nation of Yemen that did it? What was the action against Yemen?
Palistine and Afghanistan seems to have the same issue in that that allowed terrorists to operate and got the consequences… fuck around and find out… just like Yemen is playing with now.
You can’t attack foreign vessels, even in your own waters without consequences. That’s an act of war vs seizing assets which is more a sanction.
