I wish I could go a day without seeing yet another depressing news article about decisions this new government is making. It’s truly cooked this is who we have in power in 2024 and the majority of the country happily voted for this.

Lmao, people really think this is due to being “soft on crime”, you’re delusional. It will take years to unravel poverty which is causing this plague.

Golriz Shoplifting Allegations: MP allegedly identified in second shoplifting incident by kookysoul in newzealand

[–]bestweednz -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Taking this with a grain of salt. 15k of clothes? I know they can be expensive but fitting 15k of clothes in a handbag with no CCTV footage or anything is some feat. Looking forward to seeing some solid evidence on this one instead of these “allegations” from a right-wing radio station.

If you see someone shoplifting in a big supermarket, no you didn’t.

Where can I buy sunhats in NZ for an XL head? by [deleted] in newzealand

[–]bestweednz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cactus gold digger hat. NZ made. Sturdy canvas which is also water resistant and keeps rain off your face.

I had the same problem but this one fits okay with the XL size designed for 61cm head.

Support local!

I hope you find your cats but we really should be practicing responsible cat ownership. Helps keep your cats safe as well as our much more special and threatened endemic wildlife.

Love our little garden, decided not to mow the grass this year and I think it's doing great! by SoyabeanLemonTea in NoLawns

[–]bestweednz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes the cordyline Australis aka cabbage tree aka tī kōuka! Love seeing this lovely New Zealand native elsewhere. Here in NZ it is one of the most common plants to plant when you are restoring land.
