Porirua

Hamilton, Porirua, Rangitīkei, and Matamata-Piako have voted to retain their Māori Wards, leading to a binding poll for the next local government elections.

Ngāti Korokī says the three Ngāti Raukawa hapū around Ōtaki township are among the most landless in the Manawatū to Porirua district.

Modlik says social supermarkets are like mopping in the leak from the laundry, dealing with the symptoms of the underlying problem of unaffordable food pricing.
