Oh great, another chemical spill? Council will spend millions on a report but not fix the actual pipes. Classic.
I was driving through Tuakau yesterday and smelt something weird. Thought it was just the usual farm smell lol
half the town smells like that. Not helpful.
Hope the firefighters are okay. They don't get paid nearly enough for this kind of crap.
Same. They're absolute heroes but our council couldn't organise a piss-up in a brewery.
right. They need a pay rise and a medal.

ffs what is it this time? Poisons dumped down the drain again? Someone better be getting charged.
Mystery fumes? Probably some idiot mixing chemicals in their shed again. Darwin award nominee.
lol watch them blame it on some poor bloke doing a bit of DIY
Heard my neighbour was one of the firefighters. Glad they're okay but seriously, when is this town gonna get proper infrastructure?
There's literally nothing on the news about what the chemical was. Typical media holding back info.
sure they said it was a hydrocarbon. But yeah, trust no one.
Bet it's from that old factory site. Whole area is a toxic mess.
nah you're probably right. Wouldn't surprise me.
