BPW Franklin Dinner with excellent speaker May 28th
“THE NEW BATTLE FOR WOMEN'S RIGHTS” Jill Ovens will be speaking at the BPW Franklin dinner meeting on May 28th 6.30pm for 7pm, in Pukekohe.
Over the past decade and largely under the radar, publicly funded lobby groups have promoted an agenda that has put the rights of women and girls at risk.
At the same time women’s voices have been shut down in our universities, public service, the mainstream media and our unions. Jobs have been put at risk if people dare to question gender ideology. Lesbians have been thrown out of Pride events and are having to defend themselves in the Human Rights Tribunal.
Ironically it is women who have willingly ceded our spaces, allowing our organisations and our unions to be co-opted by the politics of “kindness and inclusivity” to the exclusion of women’s issues and rights.
Who would have thought that more than 130 years after New Zealand women fought for and won the right to vote, the first self-governing country in the world to have women’s suffrage, we would need to organise to protect our hard-won rights?

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
