This is a good move, could probably work well elsewhere too. It makes good sense too to have the rent adjustable depending on the family's circumstances.

  Dunedin losing patience, attacking politicians in large print
Posted by: Lilith7 - 28-05-2025, 03:29 PM - Forum: Opinion and Politics - Replies (8)

Both this & the previous govt made promisies which are unkept; Dunedin needs a new hospital. Both this & the previous govt said they'd build it....neither has. 

So some very,very large posters have now gone up. One leader was labelled incompetent, the other untrustworthy...but are very likely interchangeable. Rolleyes

Through Jerusalem's Muslim quarter.

Its tragic to see people who've been so cruelly persecuted now persecuting others. Netanyahu & his govt have much to answer for. It could perhaps be said that Zionists have learned from the Nazis, to their shame Angry Dodgy .

Hi everyone, have you noticed that your ad blocker for Youtube is no longer working? It makes using it a real pain. Has anyone as of 27-5-25 found a way to blocke them. I use Opera Air and Vivaldi as my go-to browsers, I tried Firefox but that was unsucessful. Can anyone please point my in the right direction?
