winston peters

Harry from Waikanae

Winston Peters will refuse to go into Government with Labour again so long as it continues to push for equal Māori leadership. At New Zealand First's Christchurch conference the leader steered into the race debate saying the name Aotearoa is being rammed down our throats. Winston Peters revving his supporters up and out of hibernation. After a sluggish start, Peters came out swinging. So too New Zealand, threatened by the name Aotearoa. "They're ramming the name of the country down your throats." "It is a bottom-line that if parties wish to pursue racist policies we will not be working with them," he said. Winston Peters sees his pathway back to power as the growing sense of unease about a changing Aotearoa. Tomorrow his party will vote on a policy to remove almost all references to the Treaty of Waitangi in our laws.

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.

While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.

And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
