2024/06/10

Mark Story is the Deputy Editor at Hawkes Bay Today – he recently wrote an opinion piece about working remotely at cafes, after being banned from Smiths in Napier for ‘table-hogging.” He interviewed hospitality owners from around the country, to shed some light on what’s reasonable. Story told Kerre Woodham “I think it’s common sense – if I did stay longer than an hour or two, I’d buy something else.” He said “People attract people – if people see that it’s being well-attended, it adds to the

Every two weeks on a Friday, I send a silent thank you to the payroll people at NZME who put the pot of gold into my account that pays my bills. My paycheques are bit like one of those jump jets that lands on an aircraft carrier ever so briefly before bouncing off and up again. Pay packet comes in to land, pops down and whoosh, off again into the wild blue yonder. Still, it's there. My bills are paid, and I appreciate the work our team do to make that happen. It is not a job I would ever want to do

When I was hunting around trying to find a new home a couple of years ago, looking at everything, among the everything I looked at was a number of apartments in the city. City life appealed. I could walk to work, walk to the theatres, walk to the Comedy Club, the library, the art gallery, cool cafes and shopping precincts just a couple of blocks away, all a single woman of a certain age could possibly want. As it was, my circumstances changed and my family and I ended up buying a home together, and

Kerre Woodham: Taking their cars is a good start

2024/06/04

Six thousand years ago these words were inscribed on an Egyptian tomb: “Young people no longer respect their parents. They're rude and impatient. They frequently inhabit taverns and have no self-control.” And then along came Plato in the 4th century BC, and this is probably the one you're more familiar with if you've heard the quote, “What has happened to our young people, they disrespect their elders, they disobey their parents. They ignore the law. They riot in the streets, inflamed with wild

It also has commitments for the environmental remediation of the smelter site. Invercargill Mayor Nobby Clark told Kerre Woodham that this is outstanding news for the region.

He was found guilty of 34 felony charges but will appeal the outcome.

We need information. To create a functioning society, there's certain information that we need to know. How many of us there are in the country for starters. How old we all are, so we know where we need to build schools and what sort of aged care we might need in the future. Roads, public transport, all that sort of stuff depends on knowing where we all are, who we all are, where we work. So many questions and so many answers needed. And since 1851, we've been getting that information via the

The result is in for New Zealand Rugby’s long-awaited governance vote. Proposal Two, the structure put forth by the country’s provincial unions has won with 69 votes. The proposal includes a stipulation that at least three of NZR’s nine board directors must have experience serving on a provincial board, in contrast with proposal one —backed by NZR and the players— which wanted all nine directors to be entirely independent.

Kerre Woodham: Debt-to-income restrictions aren't a...

Kerre Woodham Mornings Podcast ·

2024/05/28

Fundamentally, I would have thought that limiting debt-to-income is a good idea. The debt-to-income ratio is the ratio of your total debt —mortgage credit cards, child support payments, hire, purchase, and the like— relative to your total pre-tax income. So, for example, if you have a total debt of $500,000 and your total gross income is $80,000, your debt-to-income ratio is 6.25. It means your total debt is 6.25 of your total gross income. So, as I say, to estimate your debt-to-income ratio,

Kerre Woodham: Paid placements are not a new idea

2024/05/27

A petition has been set up asking for students on placement to receive a stipend from the Government, because as part of their qualifications many students, like those in healthcare, social work, and education, are required to complete unpaid placements to practically apply what they've learnt. And it's a really, really good idea because quite often, the theory bears no real relation to reality. You might think you want to be a nurse, and then you're in amongst the blood and the gore and you think,

One of the best teachers at my daughter’s intermediate school, Ponsonby Intermediate, was a former chippy-turned-teacher. He was a great example of somebody who'd trained in one career then decided to move into another — teaching. And there's a whole bunch of kids who are very, very glad he made that choice. It was a great pre-Budget announcement from Erica Stanford, who said yesterday $53 million will be going towards recruiting and training teachers, teachers who are desperately needed in all

Parts of our economy are continuing to provide inflation pressures for the Reserve Bank. It's decided to keep the OCR at 5.5% and has signalled a rate cut no sooner than the second quarter of next year. The move to keep the OCR the same was anticipated, but many were hoping for rate cuts to come earlier.

I first heard the catchphrase Survive to 25 when I was talking to be at large, Liam Dann. It appears to have come out of the US and implies that if mortgagees and small businesses can just hang on till next year things will start to come right. Because let's face it, we're not going to see interest rates drop any time soon. Despite some of the banks predicting that there would be a drop in mortgage interest rates towards the end of the year, the Reserve Bank poured cold water on that. Great for
