The cyclone has given the battered Coromandel Peninsula another whack — with more on the way. Crews are working to clear widespread damage to the roads, with a lot of land unstable. There have also been power outages. Coromandel-Thames Civil Defence Gary Towler says that the region probably has up to 36 hours left of the storm to ride out.

49 percent of New Zealanders believe the country is on the wrong track. 42 percent believe it's going in the right direction. 77 percent of people feel poorly or not so good about the economy. 22 percent think it's good or excellent, and this is one of the largest gaps since the pandemic. And yet, National is only slightly ahead of Labour in the latest polls from Talbot Mills, they also run Labour's private political polling. In the results, Te Pāti Māori would hold the balance of power when it came

Sensible or cynical? Yesterday, the Prime Minister announced the first of the Government's policies it will be scrapping in a bid to win back the support of those who have become disillusioned by Labour's lack of action and incoherent messaging. The TVNZ/RNZ merger has been scrapped for now. The hate speech reforms have gone back to the Law Commission. The Workplace Insurance scheme has gone, and in music to the ears of the unions and the lowly paid, the minimum wage has gone up again. Now that will

The Government has announced the minimum wage will increase by $1.50 to $22.70 an hour from April. According to the ACT Party, the Government has now made it harder for businesses to take a chance on a young worker who is looking for a chance and are putting another cost on businesses at a time when about 30 percent of retail businesses aren’t sure they will survive the next 12 months.

You know it's an election year, don't you, because crime, law and order is front and centre. Although to be fair, crime has been making headlines since the ram raids, and since the Government kept telling us crime was going down and we didn't really feel like it was. Now, National’s police spokesperson Mark Mitchell has produced a set of figures from police that show the number of reported retail crime incidents has spiked to more than 10,000 in a single month, the highest in recorded history.

It’s back to school today for many children and if your household was anything like ours, it's full of nervous excitement and brand-new school bags for a brand-new class. Old mates and new mates. We cannot wait to hear the stories fresh off the playground on the first day back, and school should be exciting. It should be something that children do look forward to. It should be a safe place where children are encouraged to learn and to see the world as somewhere where they can take their rightful

Now Stuart Nash is back as Minister for police, the first thing he wants to do is see the removal of ciggies from dairies as he thinks that's the answer to preventing ram raids. Steps have already been taken to get cigarettes out of corner shops, not because of the ram raids, but because of the health effects and the Smokefree Aotearoa policy. We have the prohibition of the sale of smoked tobacco products to anyone born on or after the 1st of January, 2009. And there's also a restriction on the

The first of stats are in regarding mortgage holders' ability to deal with the new and increased mortgage interest rates, and so far so good. Those with homes and mortgages collectively paid $3.5 billion of interest to banks in the December quarter, 53 percent more than just over a year earlier when interest rates were the lowest on record. Record high wages have helped when it comes to mortgage holders resilience, although the rising cost of living is eating into that. And these are only the

We have the cabinet reshuffle, of course, and although to me it's simply shuffling the same pack of cards, the same deck that has the same jokers and the same wildcards in it. You would have to say that Labour's done a pretty good job of rebranding itself as new and shiny and exciting. We no longer have a Minister for Covid, thank heavens. We do have a Minister for Auckland the first time since Judith Tizard was Minister for Auckland. You wouldn't have to do much to better her performance. So you

Auckland, Northland and the Coromandel Peninsula have been given red level weather warnings, the most severe warnings as more rain is forecast to fall on the sodden regions. NEMA has issued a safety warning that the heavy rain could cause flooding, slips and damage because the ground simply can't take any more. And one way of trying to minimize the load on already stretched first responders and emergency workers is to minimise traffic on Auckland's roads while vital infrastructure is

I am not surprised at all at the complete and utter chaos surrounding the transport to and from Elton John's concert at Mount Smart Stadium tonight. I'm really not. It's Auckland Transport for heaven's sake. Anybody who has lived in Auckland who has visited Auckland will know that AT are not terribly good at planning – and a massive piece of understatement - nor are they any good at executing, even the average plans they come up with. So the council has known for more than a year that Elton John

Look, we're not much into the year, are we? I suppose we're almost at the end of January. But there's another awful story about emergency housing about motels and the people being sequestered away in motels because authorities say there is nowhere else for them to go. In this case it is young people. It absolutely beggars belief that Oranga Tamariki can consider motel accommodation the best option for at risk young people, yet that's what they told analysts from the New Zealand Herald whose story is
