Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

This is a very good point.

I can't believe that it took so long for a government to specifically measure child poverty; because as they say once you can measure it you can do something about it.

If we didn't have a housing crisis, then also simply putting homeless people in a home greatly reduces the burden on the other services (healthcare, police, drug rehab etc...) that they make use of.
