The new fencing totally ruins the waterfront. $3k per metre of fencing as well is bonkers. Councillors vote tomorrow. They really need to rethink this. #wellington #wcc www.thepost.co.nz/nz-news/3607...
What do you think of these Wellington waterfront fencing designs?
The Wellington City Council has released artist impressions for the new waterfront fencing ahead of a vote on Thursday. Have your say in the comments.

Important read, but let’s be clear: Tonga isn’t just a pawn in a global chess game. We deserve transparent, sovereign foreign policy shaped by our values, not fear. 🇹🇴 #Tonga #PacificVoices #ForeignPolicy #Geopolitics #KanivaTonga

Got the 2025 Shattered Backboards and the leather isn’t very good. Laces feel like plastic. Always wanted this colourway but pretty disappointed with the quality. #sneakers #AJ1

Is the Tongan gov is picking a fight it can’t afford? Cutting out a local business without clear reasons risks jobs, safety, and vital connections like Air NZ. I feel like this is just going to create chaos for everyday people.

“Nicola Willis’s incurred debt will be higher in less time, than 6 years of the Ardern Labour government combined”
And they’re pretty much delivering nothing with it. Fml.

Nick Mowbray contributes barely any tax in Aotearoa. He's trying to destroy social services and public entities. Instead of paying tax, he's donating to political parties to ensure he has influence. Time to boycott Zuru! Don't buy anything listed below and check all toy labels before buying.

I never watched Andor S1 so I watched it back to back with S2 over the past week. Finished S2 finale around midnight and went straight into Rogue One. Seamless transition. What an awesome show/movie.
