There is an interesting article in today's Dominion Post about a rapid rise in unemployement in Wellington city. This is not necessarily bad news as there has been a skills shortage in the city so in the short term it is hoped that many recently unemployed can be snapped up.
One area where there seems to be a chronic skills shortage is health administration. So on 9 November it may not matter that senior staff in the Miinistry of Health feel that it might be a bit uncomfortable hanging around.
Of course the senior staff we are thinking of won't be reading this message as since last night The Hive has joined Homepaddock in being banned by the MOH. Maybe it was the story about Sarko??? Or was it something else......
