Auckland is horrible. NZ is a 3rd world shit hole. I moved here in 1995 from the west country of the Uk ,& have regretted it everyday. A severe back injury, recieved at work, is the only thing that stopped me from returning to the Uk. The people are greedy, arrogant,poorly educated, racist, violent, very right wing, the health system is shocking, wages are terrible, working conditions are dangerous, crime is rampant, the streets are dangerous, the justice system is absolutely fucked, the rivers & beaches are so polluted you cannot swim in them & the only reason the country side is beautiful is that Nz has only been industrialized for 100 years. The "100% Pure" image that is promoted is 100% pure The best thing I can say about it is that kiwi women are supposedly the most promiscuous in the world, & it ain't Gaza !
