The big issue coming is the certification app.
I suspect its release is going to cause big headaches around not aligning with timing of other promises then the almost guaranteed bugs and user problems.They make it pretty easy to show that your vaccinated by following the text link. I was pleasantly surprised at the ease of it
But isn't there an app with a QR code to be used as the main proof?
Sorry, yes. Just saying that if you need to show you are fully vaxed, there is a temporary solution in place currently
Yep. I just think that when the app becomes the passport to bars/restaurants/concerts/travel etc the desire to use it will slam its capabilty and problems will arise.
Already I suspect that Auckland is being delayed in steps because the app isn't ready. -

Drove past a whole bunch on them on bikes. More than few had Trump T shirts on. What a bunch of troublemaking fluffybunnies.

Anyone know anything about the Maori setting up their own blockade at Te Hana?
Can't see anything online but have had calls from workers saying that they can't get through. No problem with the police (they all have exemptions), but this was something else.

@snowy yeah dont think it was a blockade, was a 'Hikoi' wanting to get through, unsure where they were going.
@Tim feral fluffybunnies
They had cars across the road apparently and wouldn't let anyone past - so I'm going with blockade.
-
@taniwharugby Gotcha. No they were never getting through.
I just had a an amusing self reflection - I agree with them re lockdowns, but I am not going to block state highways. Things are shit enough already.

Biting is pretty poor form. If it was a dog that did that it would risk getting put down

@mn5 why trouble making. Was there reports of misbehaving
Loads of intimidation, abusing people wearing masks, bikes revving…..not to mention the whole thing was an affront to people actually trying to do the right thing.
Are you double jabbed @winger?

@mn5 At Wellington. Or Auckland. Wellington I heard was peaceful. A friendly atmosphere and a good sized crowd. And my understanding is it wasn't anti vac but pro freedom.
Sounds like our sources have different views on things
