And, within a 45min drive (or bus trip) from Hamilton AoNZ, is Hobbiton. Even if you don’t care about LOTR, it’s absolutely worth it. Need to book online in advance: v busy

In Hamilton AoNZ, you must have an ice cream (vegan, DF, GF options too) from Duck Island in Hamilton East. Queues out the door sometimes. Wild flavours. Also, Hamilton Gardens for a day, and the museum in the CBD. Enjoy your trip Clare 😎

Well, well, well. So much for transparent government, interested in coherent, knowledgeable expertise on a topic. Such disrespect for Palmer

Unsurprising really. Why would an organisation that has championed the subject and done a LOT for it over decades, continue with such a blatantly unethical and reactionary process?

It’s a crock because those claiming S.C. still use water, roads, electricity paid for by taxes that help things function. Use a seat belt in a car? Have a driver’s license? Bank account?? Please…

Many of us are. Others have been infected by the disinformation bug Trump and others peddle. The need for easy answers to complex problems is part of this. As is a feeling of personal entitlement at the expense of other people

So he’s still happy to use Village People to dance to? No irony there!

I think you’re right. Lying down and playing dead in order to stay in power. Little in the way of doing the right thing for the population as a whole, it would seem.
