I’m so proud of our country. We really do appreciate you all.❤

Yup when it comes to true kindness, New Zealand blows Australia away easily

Food, the cost of living, petro, it's too expensive to live in NZ.

Absurd. The food banks shouldn’t exist. The government should be paying beneficiaries enough to survive on, and the tax rates on the low incomes much lower.

Beneficiaries should stop spending money on Crack. Never have money for food but always have money for a bag or box of beer

[@donbrashsux]

The politicians need to all volunteer their time and see first hand where many tax paying kiwis really are

[@kimkay2196]

Agree food banks are necessary but people need to budget as well I live in a lower income area & the amount of people spending money on takeaways it's ridiculous. I've seen people come to food bank with m Donald's drinks etc .
