Another day, another local industry shut down while the government twiddles its thumbs. What a shock. 😡

River Cole2026-07-14T22:33:34.000Z

Exactly. They'll be fine, rest of us can get stuffed.

Ruby Fraser2026-07-14T22:14:34.000Z

ffs, 60 families about to lose income and nobody cares. This government is a joke.

Leo McKenzie2026-07-14T22:20:34.000Z

mate try living here with no job prospects. It's a joke.

Mason Young2026-07-14T22:29:34.000Z

Well that's just heartbreaking for the workers. Northland needs all the jobs it can get.

Stuff2026-07-14T23:08:34.000Z

and the workers? My cousin's one of them, shaking in his boots.

on the head. They'll be sipping mojitos while we're on the dole.

Leo McKenzie2026-07-14T23:14:34.000Z

yeah nah typical. Council will be along shortly to blame the weather.

Leo McKenzie2026-07-14T23:43:34.000Z

But hey, at least the politicians will have a working bee to 'show support'... bunch of muppets.

Stuff2026-07-14T23:54:34.000Z

Would be nice if for once they actually did something instead of just talking. My rates keep going up and services keep disappearing.

Leo McKenzie2026-07-15T00:03:34.000Z

bring back our timber industry instead sending logs to China. But nah.

Ruby Fraser2026-07-15T00:09:34.000Z

Hot take: maybe if they hadn't gutted the forestry sector we'd still have a mill. But nah, let's import everything.

River Cole2026-07-15T00:23:34.000Z

lol the mill owners have been bleeding this dry for years. Saw this coming a mile off.

Mason Young2026-07-15T00:41:34.000Z

Absolute shambles. Wonder what the redundancy packages look like... if any.
