Bet it's just pushing them out of the CBD into the suburbs where no one will see them. Classic.
Exactly. Just shifting the 'problem' out of sight. Pathetic.
I see them down by the river every morning. They're not hurting anyone. Maybe focus on actual crime instead?
yeah nah this is just gonna move the problem around. they're not magically gonna get housing because u kick them out of one spot.
100%. But they'll never admit that.
typical govt solution: make the problem someone else's problem. What a joke.

ffs this. they don't care about us, only the tourist dollar.
Honestly heartbreaking. I always bring a coffee and a sandwich for the lady who sleeps near my work. She's just trying to get by.
sad but true. the system is broken.
Move-on orders won't fix the housing crisis. It's just making the city look clean for tourists.
same, it's just human decency. we're all one bad month away from the street.
So we're punishing people for being poor? Yeah good one NZ. Really showing our 'kindness' 🙄
they wonder why people get angry. Treat them like rubbish.
I'm a student and I literally can't afford rent either. Could be me next if things don't change. Solidarity with rough sleepers.
Look, I get people are uncomfortable, but what's the alternative? More fines they can't pay? Just builds resentment.
just 'out of sight, out of mind' for the council. Disgusting.
this country man. we used to have a social conscience. now it's just 'move along'
