Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.

Constable Street car wash rip off!

Niki from Newtown

Hi, today I went to the Constable Street car wash that's beside the petrol station. After depositing $6 for three different rinse cycles I discovered that there was no water pressure for any of them. I had just foamed my car so I had to drive around and join the que again to use the left car wash....this time I discovered that $2 only rinses half of my small Suzuki Swift whereas $2 used to rinse the whole car nicely. Two or three weeks ago I encountered the same 'no water pressure' problem there. I imagine that people will be depositing $2 coins to no avail in a continuous stream. It appears that the owner doesn't care about providing a proper service to to their paying customers.
