NZ Could Be A Bargain Buy
Trump wants to buy Greenland the largest island in the world but a much smaller trio of islands could be up for grabs in an equally remote part of the world.
NZ is not only mineral rich, but it is oil and coal rich just what Trump is all about. And land is cheap here especially in and around Auckland.
As well we have in Trump's mind similar looking population stats: 50,000 (Gld) and 5,000,000 (NZ).
The Greenlanders are not much at enthusiastically greeting their owners or potential owner/s but a full Maori group of hundreds with waka and haka would look and sound a lot more impressive than cold handshakes from a huddled group lasting all of 35 seconds.
There could be a Trump Tower in every city in NZ. I'd pitch for one in Silverstream overlooking the Hutt River.
NZ would be a bargain for Trump and the USA as NZ seems to be folding into a recession not only because of the Ardern Government economic and social bunglings but because Trump has been the major architect of a world wide economic and power playing disorder.
Gee, taking over NZ, Trump could look at building the greatest wall in the history of mankind and dinosaurs right in the middle of the Tasman Sea and stop Australia from sending Kiwi crims back to NZ.

Lest we forget...
On this ANZAC Day, let's take a moment to remember and honor the brave men and women who have served and continue to serve our country.
Tell us who are you honouring today. Whether it's a story from the battlefield or a memory of a family member who fought in the war, we'd love you to share your stories below.
Upper Hutt Rates Increases.
Please excuse if I am posting this where is shouldn't be. Admins, do remove this if its not appropriate.
I have not done anything like this before so please excuse if my wording isn't quite right.
As most of us are aware the Upper Hutt City Council have proposed to raise their Rates by near on 20% each year over the next 3 years.
If your UHCC Rates are around $2500 per year, after the 3 years of increases they will be approximately $4300 which equals an extra $35ish per week. This will not only hit homeowners, rentals, hirage of venues etc but will be impacting the community as the costs will be passed on with such large increases over a short period of time.
As I am outraged about this, I have created a petition on change.org to hopefully be able to show the council how many are not for these massive increases in a short period of time.
If you would like to support this petition please go to the link and add your voice.

Thanks in advance.
