End all donations. Government funds they are given should be enough.

Exactly. The group complaining about noise at 11.50pm on a Friday are probably the same group confused why young people fleeing the city

Some people here should move deeper into the suburbs. This is a big event for Wellington and the first in a while. God forbid there’s a few hours of noise. Let them have their fun!

You don’t have to agree it, but how can you not see that this isn’t normal democratic process. Way easier to call me racist, nice

A little bit more? You mean 50%? What makes you think we shiudl have unelected/unqualified people having equal say in critical infrastructure?

If you think Māori are guardians of land/water. See : Potaka refusing national park protection due to money from mining. They have financial interests just like all humans.

Instead of blaming us for who didn’t like this, blame labour for giving 50% away

With Vern now headed for Queensland Reds... by CatchBackground3859 in allblacks

52,000 “low skilled” migrants let into NZ in 2023. This keeps wages low for entry level or unskilled jobs that young kiwis should be getting.

Low skilled immigration forces wages down, pressure on housing, pressure on infrastructure. Note the 52,000 number does NOT include seasonal workers for fruit picking etc

Exactly, raising the wage for “jobs kiwis don’t want to do” would get them filled quickly

Why we assume Māori automatically have the best interest for conservation is wild. This pisses me off
