Black Leather Couch

Lisa from Albany Heights

This couch was originally $5k - it has been good to us but we are now re-decorating.

It is tired - leather still in reasonably good condition but the seams are coming apart and the foam in one spot has shifted. You can see from the pics.

Would look as good as new if some TLC was given to it.… View more

On Monday, 21 November, the Supreme Court ruled that preventing 16 and 17-year-olds from voting is 'unjustified age discrimination'.

The current age of voting is 18 in New Zealand and lobby group Make It 16 have been running a youth-led campaign advocating for the vote to be extended to our 16 and 17-year-olds.

“This is history,” said Make It 16 co-director Caeden Tipler. “Today New Zealand’s highest court has confirmed that stopping young people from voting is a breach of our human rights...The government and Parliament cannot ignore such a clear legal and moral message. They must let us vote.”

Share your thoughts below - these may be published in the We Say You Say column of the local papers.
