What do you think the police spend on petrol?
The price of keeping the thin blue line strong is mounting at the petrol pump as the force looks to move away from fossil fuels.
Five years ago in the 2018/19 financial year, police spent $14,860,116 to purchase 9,492,945 litres of fuel, whereas in 2022/23 they spent $2.5 million more and got 773,079 litres less.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
