Sorry, didn't reply to this - the voting early thing I didn't realise was possible until last election, traditionally has been on the day, but if it's there I'll do it early in person.
I posted it a while back when I came across it. What I find most offensive is the huge surplus acc makes year on year and they pull something like this that has huge benefits in a country surrounded by waterThis is a travesty that Water Safe NZ is losing $1,1m in funding from ACC. Govt needs to get off it's arse and throw them some cash. Plenty of vanity projects out there it could come from

Kiwi kids were drowning 30 years ago when i was a kid... Is this an issue that govt can fix?This is a travesty that Water Safe NZ is losing $1,1m in funding from ACC. Govt needs to get off it's arse and throw them some cash. Plenty of vanity projects out there it could come from

And then they spend millions on ads warning that having an accident would be inconvenient
I’m beginning to think he’s going to cost them the next election. His leadership is dipping from poll to poll and I get the feeling there might be a power issue. Winston mentioned recently we got deals done rather than Luxon’s I. Labour were dwindling in 2017 and not quite a like for like situation but Andrew Little stepping aside for the good of the party is something Luxon needs to consider
I hope I never need them and although it’s dead money going to them if so, self employed people I’ve talked to have said how hard they are to deal with? I don’t know if this is the case but one person I know got injured and their earnings were based on covid years unfortunately and he received an amount that was impossible to live on through that time. I think they expect self employed people to be able to foot a majority themselves, not considering what the person has paid out to them. Not a fan even before learning of their pulling funding for kids learning to swim
Yes, I think they can by using the Water Safety Council as their advertising and promotional arm. Kids don't seem to be problem any more, mainly adolescents and adults. The govt wanted to save some lives during covid and was prepared to chuck a few bucks at it.
Thought you’d be a goer at back beach
Haha, Not with my paunch. Not sure if the nudies are still there. Used to be all go back a couple of decades
Just keeping all options alive like national not ruling anyone out in the last election I think. Winston is Peeni Henare’s uncle so there’s some familiarity there
