Wairoa Mayor Craig Little said Wairoa had received $100,000, yes 100k, from Minister for Emergency Management and Recovery Mark Mitchell for flood relief and $100,000 from Hawke’s Bay Regional Council to help with the removal of insulation under homes.

Just to repeat, $100k from the Govt.

Well, if you are a bottom feeder, why would we waste money on you? Isn't that what the current govt think? I can't be bothered with my age group. I'm talking to kids in retail and minimum wage workers, every chance I get.

That's $174,900 less than those fucking muppets paid Bill English for his bullshit report on KO. You know, the one they raided the transitional housing budget to pay for. People who need transitional housing after, say, getting flooded out of their homes.

They're Trumpies. No money for local communities in disasters, just $$ for rigged reports from your former colleagues.

Unfortunately, I think there's a cap for immediate disbursements from the pot of money this comes from. Labour coughed up $100k a time too following similar events and put more in from elsewhere later.
