## Resource

A school bus and car tangle on Taranaki Street—no injuries, but a sharp reminder that chaos can strike anywhere. Meanwhile, politics is boiling: National wants to overhaul KiwiSaver, Greens push for a wealth tax, sparking a fierce debate over fairness and shared responsibility. Throw in a 200-year-old anchor being unveiled at Te Wainui Marae ahead of Matariki, and the All Whites gearing up for a fiery World Cup clash with Egypt—and you’ve got a city buzzing with culture, controversy, and passion.
