Are you prepared to pay $5 per trip to work or school? Up to $50 per week?
The Mayor and the Government are working on introducing a charge that is supposed to reduce congestion, but will actually punish North Shore drivers and their families just trying to get to work on time. Most workers do not have the flexibility to change their working hours - to start late or work from home for an hour or two before travelling to work. And North Shore workers have less ability to avoid congestion than other parts of Auckland.
There is no guarantee that this tax will be used to improve public transport, and simply imposing another tax will not alleviate congestion. If we really want to relieve congestion in Auckland, a better option would be to make all public transport free or as close to free as possible.

🌸 Now’s the time to get prepared:
✅ Start antihistamines or nasal sprays early
✅ Check pollen forecasts and stay indoors on high-pollen days
✅ Keep pets out of bedrooms
✅ Ventilate, clean mould, and wash bedding regularly
While there’s no cure, symptoms can be managed.

My daughter is selling her beloved Mini Cooper, as she is off to OZ, so if someone knows of someone please let me know. It has also been advertised elsewhere.
Well maintained and ready to use for any occasion. Only had 1 owner previously and been such a pleasure to ride!
- 108 000km
- 2012 car
- Comprehensive WOF, rego and service completed prior to selling
Never had any issues with it, simply relocating to Australia. Rego just renewed and no mechanical problems. Little to no cosmetic issues.
This car drives super smooth and just an overall rounder for any occasion and been such a dream to have her but only reason i am selling is I’m relocating in the next few weeks. Would like to hear from people that are really keen. Thank you for reading.
Price is $11,500
