2024/10/07

Just a couple of weeks ago, I went out to Devonport for a picnic with some friends and remember pointing out the Manawanui to our kids as we crossed the harbour on the ferry. "Look guys, that's our Navy!" Obviously, it's a great relief that everyone is okay and was able to disembark in time, and I accept it'll be some time before we learn everything about what happened. But it's hard to look past what is - from the outside - a profoundly embarrassing accident for New Zealand's Defence Force, and our

Ryanair has caused quite a stir in the UK - from May next year, passengers will need to check in by smart phone only, meaning they will no longer be able to physically check in at a counter at the airport. Currently 60 percent of their customers do check in online, but those who don't face a charge of $97 nzd. For those without smartphones, they will have to find someone who has one. Ryanair does have a policy which lets passengers check-in online 60 days before their flights. Aviation Commentator

2024/10/04

It's been inevitable for months now that the Ministry of Education would lose responsibility for building and maintaining schools and at first glance the government's onto a winner with its alternative plan. The review into the state of school facilities shows only a third of the almost-500 building projects in the Ministry of education queue have been fully funded and concludes the average cost of a new classroom could rise to $1.8m over the next few years. "That is unsustainable," it says. If

I've had a bit of time now to look at the so-called 'independent advice' released by Casey Costello on the efficacy of heated tobacco products which she's so curiously and steadfastly supported. To remind you, there is one company that has been providing these heated tobacco products in New Zealand: Philip Morris. That company's external relations manager is the former chief of staff for New Zealand First and while Casey Costello says she has no links to the tobacco industry and that the tobacco

The Finance Minister is pleased the nation's business heavyweights share her values and priorities. The Herald's annual Mood of the Boardroom survey has found CEOs and board members are more optimistic than pessimistic about the economy. But they still have concerns about things like energy, living costs, interest rates, cyber security threats and insurance costs.

More than half of Kiwis have no religion, new data shows. Census figures released today shows the proportion of people without religion is now at 51.6 percent.

A police college based in Auckland could be on the cards. New intakes at the Porirua college will be bolstered next year by 20 recruits each wing to reach 100 trainees. By late August, applications had overtaken 5,500 - more than double the number for the same period last year. But Assistant Commissioner Jill Rogers says the Porirua facility is already groaning at the seams.
