In the lead up to the 2020 election, Stuff is keeping voters up to date with what’s happening in their electorate, through Neighbourly. Here’s what you need to know about the candidates in the running to be Tāmaki Makaurau's MP.
At the October 17 election, New Zealanders will have the opportunity to choose their regional spokesperson.
Through the Mixed Member Proportional (MMP) voting system, those enrolled can vote for the party they want as well as a local representative.
Why does my MP matter?
The person elected will be the voice for your region in Parliament. If you’re having trouble getting entitlements or dealing with Government departments, they can help. If your community needs funding for certain projects or activities, or there isn’t enough healthcare in the area, the elected MP can step in and help.

Hi Neighbours, Auckland's raft of crises in 2020 has resulted in some clever and quick responses. So why can't our decision-makers always be so nimble? Read the story below:
Hi neighbour's, some low life stole my xmas kiwi from my garden last night after midnight. Was on his first night outside.he was near house,people suck!
If you want to go kayaking but don’t have too many clues about which boat or paddle is best for you, are unsure of the ‘Rules of the Sea’ or how to interpret weather maps and forecasts? And would like someone to give you a bit of instruction on the water?

And would like someone to give you a bit of instruction on the water?
Then, the FREE workshop on Saturday 10th October held at Coastguard Northshore on Beachfront Lane, Browns Bay, Auckland 0630 from 9am – 4pm could be a good place to start.
The morning will be interactive sessions and include a chance to look at personal and group gear such as VHF radios and Personal Locator Beacons and the chance to discuss what to do in an emergency. The afternoon will deal with planning and going on a short paddle with a skills clinic.
Bring your lunch, boat and paddling kit. If you have a query or are new or from out of town and don’t have any gear contact Shaun Maclaren on 021 2867412 or shaun@kask.co.nz and he’ll endeavour to help you out with equipment to try.
This is a Kiwi Association of Sea Kayaking (KASK) initiative supported by Safer Boating New Zealand.
Te Toi Uku, the Crown Lynn & Clayworks Museum will be holding a holiday programme on Thursday 8 October. There will be clay activities, decorate a coffee pot and tangrams to have fun with. This will all be done around the historic kiln at 8 Ambrico Place, New Lynn between 10 and 4.
We thought this was amazing. What a great way to teach your children the value of saving and getting them to add up the money is a fun way to do some maths. You could try using different bottles and different coins here in NZ.

No, it's a Blackberry Satin Thornless (as seen in photos 1 & 2) from Mitre Ten. 😃 Self-fertile, so you'll need only one for the bees to pollinate itself (using its own pollen!) and produce fruit.

Fruit grows on second-year woody stem growth, so after two years, you should have fruit. I put compost in the bottom of the tub, strawberry mix in the top, mixed with sheep & chicken pellets and peat moss, dug a small hole in the middle, put a banana peel in the bottom, and then planted the blackberry plant in it (same as for the blueberries, except for the sheep & chicken pellets I used because Mitre Ten had sold out of straight sheep pellets. =P ) Snapdragons open (as in photo 3) in my garden recently, and two blooming gorgeous flowering cuttings in a vase (last three photos), that I cut off the cherry-ice-cream geraniums I had to cut away part of last week to make way for the yellow rose I bought to replace my old one that had died. 😃
Until the 11th of October, purchase a regional newspaper or the Sunday Star-Times, find the daily code and go into win 1 of 100 medium vegepod and trolley stands.
