With the Māori economy growing at a good rate (well done)! Can we have an open debate around tax advantages? (I’m asking as I’m certainly no expert in this area) When I google (can someone confirm or deny); Do Māori businesses pay less tax in NZ? The only businesses in New Zealand that will receive this favourable 19.5 percent tax rate are Māori businesses. As a trust, incorporation, or other entity subject to Māori land laws, you can apply for Māori Authority status from Inland Revenue (IR). For tax purposes, being a Māori Authority reduces your provisional tax rate from 33% to 17.5%.

@Jasonwalls92 Start singing. They might think you’re Ed Sheeran

I have found in rural Mongolia, what I suspect to be, the most isolated and random karaoke bar in the world. It did not have Mr Brightside.

Sized?? Really. Cmon herald

@Jasonwalls92 You had a bad boy phase??

My dad just sent me my vaccination records, “signed” by my 13 year-old self. The “signature” was actually the graffiti tag I used during my #BadBoy phase. This is what teenaged rebellion looks like, people.
