From Mayor Steve Chadwick:
I’m saddened and disappointed there is still such intolerance in society today, especially in our community and especially right now as we navigate life through a pandemic.
It’s tough for everyone right now and this sort of thing is completely inappropriate and unnecessary. We don’t need any kind of division, we need to stick together as a community and look out for one another.
My husband and I were subject to this type of intolerance and I would encourage Jenny and her whanau to ignore it.
