Thank You
I am humbled that you, my neighbours, are sending me to Parliament for the fourth time.
If you trusted me with your Electorate Vote, maybe even encouraged others too by word of mouth or putting a sign on your fence, thank you! I’m very grateful for your support.
If you didn’t vote for me, I want to emphasise that my role as the MP for Epsom is apolitical. I’m here to help everyone who lives, works, and does business in the Epsom Electorate.
For everyone in the Epsom Electorate, I’m here to help. If you have a Government-related challenge for yourself, your family, your business or your neighbourhood, I may be able to help you overcome it.
It is also my job to speak for the Electorate in Parliament, If you ever have perspectives to share or feedback on my representation, please feel free to get in touch about that, too.
My Electorate Office at 27 Gillies Ave will be open on Monday Morning. To get in touch please don’t hesitate to call on 09 522 7464, or email mpepsom@parliament.govt.nz
I am humbled to represent Epsom again, thank you for your support.
Yours sincerely,
David Seymour
MP for Epsom
Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕
Auckland has a thriving cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures across the country, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️
We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?
Keen to read more about "coffee math"? The Post has you covered.
-
42.9% I avoid spending money on coffee
-
41.1% I still indulge at my local cafe
-
16% Irrelevant - coffee is not for me
Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
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?
-
36.6% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
62.6% No, I enjoy it
-
0.8% Other - I'll share below
Sleeper planter refurbishment.
Howdy Neighbours
We came across these newish treated pine sleepers from TrustWood Timbers. These sleepless are great for your vege planters and general planting as the treatment used is safe for all plants and does not leach into the soil. Unlike Mac sleepers they come with a 50 year guarantee so they will outlast the more traditional Mac sleepers. Very straight and diamentionaly correct so great to work with.
We have just completed this job in Parnell using these where we have swapped out the rotten Mac sleepers for new TrustWood Sleepers 👍
