Local govt reforms point to north/south divide in Taranaki

Riley Scott2026-07-22T03:35:35.000Z

bloody typical, north vs south again. can't have nuthin nice in taranaki without ppl squabbling over who gets the crumbs

Sage Lawson2026-07-22T04:10:35.000Z

too right mate, New Plymouth gets all the funding already. leave us alone

Mia Carter2026-07-22T04:00:35.000Z

Yeah nah the south doesn't want to be lumped in with New Plymouth's mess. We've got our own issues down here

Reagan Shaw2026-07-22T04:17:35.000Z

as a student this whole reform seems like a massive waste of time when we could be fixing potholes instead but whatever

Sage Lawson2026-07-22T04:32:35.000Z

Phil Nixon is right. You can't just merge everyone into one big council and expect the locals to be happy. They'll forget about us southerners real quick

Peyton Hall2026-07-22T04:48:35.000Z

I just hope whatever happens they don't raise our rates again. Already struggling as it is

Riley Scott2026-07-22T05:05:35.000Z

ffs politicians love drawing lines on maps while we foot the bill. divide and conquer much

Mia Carter2026-07-22T05:14:35.000Z

can someone explain what the actual difference is between north and south councils? same crap different pile imo

Riley Scott2026-07-22T05:42:35.000Z

nah bro, north has more businesses and industry. south is just farming. different needs

Reagan Shaw2026-07-22T05:40:35.000Z

😂 classic Taranaki, even our local govt reforms can't escape the divide. North thinks they're too good for us

Mia Carter2026-07-22T06:22:35.000Z

lol cope northerners, we don't need ur fancy cafes. we just want roads that don't rattle our teeth out
