FIREWOOD FUNDRAISER FOR IRON DUKE SEA SCOUTS
Kia ora / Good morning
We have this great opportunity to get good firewood for a low price and to have some funds for our upcoming events (ie National Regatta)
The firewood (Pine) will be cut into rings only, so will need to be split. The wood will not be ready for this year as the trees only came down Wed/Thur this week. Some of the wood is easily accessible, while the other half will have to be wheel barrowed. So please also arrange for a wheelbarrow to be organised as you will be required to fill your own trailer.
The firewood is located in Kaiteriteri at a persons private house.
Pick up is this Saturday 21 March 10.00am to 3.00pm.
Time slots are:-
10.00am to 11.00am
11.00am to 12.00pm
12.00pm to 1.00pm
1.00pm to 2.00pm

Please Contact Rochelle, with your time preference and bring cash on the day.

Fill your trailer and enjoy the afternoon at the beach!
Please forward on to any friends and family who would like cheap firewood.
Poll: Should we be pushing a soft-plastics recycling rollout across the whole region 🗑️
Nelson City Council has confirmed that the kerbside soft plastic trial is continuing for the current 1,000 homes. It’s a fantastic step towards being more sustainable, but many of us are still waiting for our turn.
We want to know: Should we be pushing for a rollout across the whole region? Or are you happy to keep using the drop-off points at the supermarket for now?
Is this something your household would actually participate in! ♻️

92% Yes!

8% Nah

Labour Party Hypocrisy
Well, here we go again. More Labour Party hypocrisy.
Just as Labour MP Rachel Boyack has cried crocodile tears over National not building the promised new Nelson hospital when Labour had promised (showing both how little a Labour promise is worth and the hypocrisy of their tears) to get the hospital started before their term ended we now have Deputy Prime Minister Seymour calling for the Air New Zealand shares owned by the government to be sold.
Now that is to be expected given Seymour’s party policies but what is astounding is Labour’s finance spokesperson Barbara Edmonds comments in response.
She tells us Air New Zealand is critical national infrastructure and the Government should not be selling its shares.
Very good, but wait. Labour has clearly (and conveniently) ‘forgotten’ which party privatised Air New Zealand.
In 1989, the Labour Government sold Air New Zealand into private ownership. The sale transferred the airline from being a fully state owned national carrier to a privately owned company. The sale was part of a broader wave of Labour privatisations, also including:
• Telecom (1990)
• New Zealand Steel (1987)
• PostBank (1988)
Labour may well have built state houses for working people (not just beneficiaries like Ardern’s government) in the 1930’s but what have they done since? Very, very little other than to ride on that one good thing ever since and, as we are seeing again and again approaching this election, spent most of their time practicing their hypocrisy. Remember the Kiwibuild promise?
If you want truth in politics beware Labour.
