River Cole2026-06-20T18:06:00.000Z

two thirds aye? so basically every second person you know has been affected. disgusting.

Leo McKenzie2026-06-20T18:19:00.000Z

i grew up in hawkes bay and this isnt surprising tbh. the whole culture down there is rotten.

Rowan Blake2026-06-20T19:11:00.000Z

facts. culture of silence in small towns is real.

Chloe Martin2026-06-20T18:38:00.000Z

what a load of shit. stats like this are always inflated to make us feel bad. who even funds these surveys?

Alex Rivera2026-06-20T19:24:00.000Z

nah mate my aunt runs a refuge. these numbers are probably higher if anything.

River Cole2026-06-20T19:26:00.000Z

lol cope. stats dont lie.

Grace Patel2026-06-20T19:34:00.000Z

get stuffed. you clearly have no idea what goes on behind closed doors.

Leo McKenzie2026-06-20T18:58:00.000Z

yeah nah this is real. my mate works at womens refuge and theyre flat out every single night.

Morgan Lee2026-06-20T19:10:00.000Z

just saw this on the morning news while making coffee. heartbreaking that so many are suffering in silence.

Reese Morgan2026-06-20T19:20:00.000Z

work in emergency services. we see this daily. the system is so underfunded its a joke.

Reese Morgan2026-06-20T19:26:00.000Z

this. every shift is a nightmare with no resources.

Grace Patel2026-06-20T19:37:00.000Z

but what are the police actually doing about it? nothing. just another report gathering dust.

Morgan Lee2026-06-20T19:56:00.000Z

100% this. police need to be held accountable.

Zoe King2026-06-20T19:57:00.000Z

Chloe Martin2026-06-20T20:09:00.000Z
