What would we call an independent North Shore?
Hi neighbours A North Shore woman is trying to initiate a referendum on an North Shore city state, split from the rest of New Zealand, with its own monetary system. Miriam Clements' idea has caused a bit of a stir and inspired a lot of comment on social media. I am wondering what we would call a North Shore country, if one were formed. What are your ideas? I will print the best idea in an editorial next week. cheers Jodi Yeats PS Put NFP in your post if it is not for publication.
