Tributes are pouring in for Tonga’s “beloved” Princess Mele Siu'ilikutapu Kalaniuvalu Fotofili who died in Auckland on Sunday, aged 75. Princess Mele was a cousin of King Tupou VI, and the eldest daughter of the late Prince Fatafehi Tu'ipelehake and Princess Melen'aite. “I recall Princess Mele’s emotional and powerful speech during the Dawn Raids Apology in 2021. “Her speech at the Dawn Raids Apology in 2021 was breathtaking and demonstrated the dignity and elegance of true leadership,” Sorensen said. Both King Tupou VI and Princess Mele are the grandchildren of the late Queen Salote.

In 2021 there were 1245 complaints concerning 570 ads and in 2020, 1151 complaints were lodged about 591 ads.

As I said in December 2021:He is busily walking back the party’s proposal to allow further housing intensification in a joint approach with the Government. Scott Simpson said the bill was “effectively, National Party policy and it’s the sort of thing that we have campaigned on now for several elections”. National housing spokesperson Chris Bishop says he didn't have any notice that Christopher Luxon would be signalling a back-down on MDRS earlier this week. As said by Simpson this was core National Party policy, private land rights and all that stuff.

"In other words, New Zealand has a widening housing deficit," the report says. It says this is a marked turnaround from the situation up until the third quarter of last year, when the housing deficit had largely been eroded. "However new demand for housing outstripped new supply in both Q4 [fourth quarter] 2022 and [first quarter] 2023. "With net migration showing no signs of letting up yet, though we assume it will soon, that deficit is likely to keep widening for a while." "Our forecast is for net migration to ease from recent extremely high levels.

Issue 3 – Labour Party Conference – Chippy with a side of chips – carb overload or pass the tomato sauce? and Issue 4 – The latest Allan Hall revelations – are we locking up innocent people in NZ prisons?

Auckland councillors are about to make a decision on the centrepiece of this year’s council budget – the sale of publicly-owned shares in Auckland International Airport (AIAL). In fact, selling the airport shares was pitched by council managers to the previous mayor Phil Goff several times – and firmly rejected. It is my personal belief the present council finance ‘deficit’ crisis has been hyped to force the sale of airport shares. Moreover, despite Mayor Brown dismissing the airport shares as a ‘lousy investment’, since last October the share price has increased by over 21%. Revealingly, this dividend has not been factored into the council’s budget.

Lyall's personal coffee order is an oat milk flat white, a dairy-free milk that has taken the world of coffee by storm in recent years. Lyall even made the bold claim that oat milk was "better to work with than cows' milk". To make your own perfect coffee, Lyall said it's important to start with a good-quality bean, like the homegrown and roasted Eighthirty. The baristas have two tips when it comes to ordering the best beverage: a large coffee means more milk, not coffee, and don't order something "extra hot". While the two baristas may have their own bugbears when it comes to the art of coffee, they are very aware of every coffee drinker's personal preference.
