This local HB issue just won't go away, and now Jones and the coalition government’s Fast Track legislation looks like it's going to help push it through. #nzpol

Sad week this week, with the last paper machine shutting down. I grew up in Tokoroa & worked in the paper re-winders at the end of machines #2 #3 and #4. Dad worked in the paper mill from 1953 until he retired.
...very sad.
