ItÔÇÖs not dark on Ulster St, itÔÇÖs red and blue.
A constant stream of lights and sirens snake down the road, where emergency housing motels line both sides.
The Government paid $350 a night for the motel room, featuring mould, the smell of sewage, a smoking heat pump, and exposed bed springs.
Meanwhile, Waikato motels earned more than $100 million from the Government during the Covid-19 pandemic as the country grapples with a housing crisis and the soaring cost of living.
Figures show the Anglesea Motel and Conference Centre ÔÇô the top earner in the region and second place nationally ÔÇô was paid $11.7m to house 408 people over two years.
Where did these ferals use to live before this woke government decided to put them up in Motels? Because wherever that was they can go back again. The local supermarket I go to is opposite one of these Motels and from the carpark you can hear the foul language, shouting and screaming. This is just not good enough, Ms Ardern put them up in a Motel in your area and see what happens.

Labour and National have both failed us.
Seems the public is too dumb to remember each parties mistakes and we just flip-flop between red and blue and its got us nowhere.
Matt King from the National party has created his own party called Democracy NZ, i think his goal is to address the root of the problems we faced in the wake of the COVID pandemic and intends to write the bill of rights into law.
I think everyone here can agree thats a good thing.
