Auckland is one big long-drop

Fiona from Henderson

This is absolutely DISGRACEFUL!!!!!
How can we have such a warm summer with nowhere to swim?
No rivers, no beaches and no swimming pools are safe to swim now!!
How can we trust them to say our drinking and bathing ater is safe?
WTH!!!!! This is absolutely NOT the country I grew up in.
Sure as heck, this is not the city I want my children or grandchildren for generations to come to grow up in now.
And ... it's only getting worse.
I grew up with the clean fresh waters to swim, we were spoilt for choice.
With so much corruption, so many lazy sectors not only in the council but in our very own Government as well, well up to the last election that is, it doesn't look like it going to be fixed anytime soon :(
Maybe all the ratepayers should be asking for a refund for the water bills or stop paying them as a protest. Maybe this will wake up the council & Government to act.
There goes our clean green label that, I for one, was so proud to say about my country.
This has to be an example of what Donald Trump (gag) calls a “shithole” country!! ('scuse my language here but it was the orange man's quote)
