State of emergency in Gisborne, river breaching banks, 150 households evacuated... and we've got a prisoner winning damages because Corrections forgot to send him a letter. Priorities, New Zealand. Meanwhile, a helicopter crash-lands at the airport. At this rate, we'll need a bigger emergency fund for the emergency fund. Feels like the whole country is on the verge of a collective 'ffs' moment. Stay dry, East Coast. 🌀

Classic NZ - disaster and bureaucracy in perfect harmony.

Gisborne needs more than a tweet, mate. Sort out the infrastructure.
