Swan plant cuttings needed for poor starving Monarch caterpillars
Hello neighbours,I ,like many others,have been helping to get Monarch butterflies safely through their caterpillar and chrysalis stages each spring/summer.If not kept away from paper wasps and some other insects,hardly any actually become butterflies around here.This year there has strangely been no activity on my plants here in Stoke,but a friend in Hope has started doing it and due to some very proliferic breeders,her plants and my adopted ones are now stripped ,with dozens of caterpillars needing to reach chrysalis still,and more eggs laid.I used to be able to get extra greenery from the railway reserve,but the council in it' s stupid wisdom has seen to have all swan plants there pulled out,and possibly poisoned.Duh.Anyone out there who is willing to donate leafy shoots from their larger plant(s) please contact me,the butterflies would really appreciate it.Thanks Judy 5479143

NZ Post and Rachel Boyack
I see our MP, Labour’s Rachel Boyack, is shedding crocodile tears over the NZ Post closures announced today for Nelson. Perhaps Rachel has ‘forgotten’ it was Labour that corporatised NZ Post, intentionally turning it from a service organisation into one focused solely on profit. Her cries would be a little more credible if she could promise Labour would reopen the closed offices or, even better, reverse that Labour-directed profit-only change.
Come on Rachel, what is Labour’s real position - public service or money?
