Auckland, your feedback is in regarding the Representation Commission's proposed electorate changes to help deal with overpopulation prior to this year's election.

Changes to the Manukau East electorate received the majority of the objections, with 64. Objectors were concerned the new boundary would separate Panmure from Mt Wellington.

Fifty-eight people said the name Helensville would not represent the communities within the electorate, instead suggesting Atuanui, Mahurangi and Kaipara, or keeping the name Rodney.

Hibiscus Coast was put forward as an alternative name by many of the 21 Whangaparāoa objectors.

Boundary changes to Papakura were mostly supported by 22 people, while 22 objectors to the new Flat Bush electorate suggested adding areas from Botany and Manurewa and calling it Takanini, Flat Bush-Takanini, Manukau South, Manurewa East, Totara or Totara Park.

What do you think about the changes proposed for your electorate?

Hi Neighbours,
Found this online if anyone is interested.

The Boss has gone completely crazy after investing $38,000 in a Polystyrene Compactor and decided to receive your Household polystyrene ('EPS-6') for FREE!!!

(The minimum you will be charged at an AKL landfill is $118)

1-Day only - This Saturday, the 11th of January at the Divert NZ HQ on Auckland's North Shore - Please read the Terms + Conditions on the flyer...

Our compactor squashes the living daylights out of polystyrene (which is 98% air) down to 1/40th of its size.
The compacted bricks can then be recycled into other plastics.
(which we are working hard to ensure happens in NZ)

Now about to cut into my favourite pyjamas. Have had people drop off fabrics however it needs to be 100% cotton or old sheets, flannels pyjamas. Just putting it out there if anyone would like to keep me company, or have suitable fabric and no sewing machine. I would be happy to keep sewing these pouches until I have enough made to send over.
