winston peters

Harry from Waikanae

Winston Peters will refuse to go into Government with Labour again so long as it continues to push for equal Māori leadership. At New Zealand First's Christchurch conference the leader steered into the race debate saying the name Aotearoa is being rammed down our throats. Winston Peters revving his supporters up and out of hibernation. After a sluggish start, Peters came out swinging. So too New Zealand, threatened by the name Aotearoa. "They're ramming the name of the country down your throats." "It is a bottom-line that if parties wish to pursue racist policies we will not be working with them," he said. Winston Peters sees his pathway back to power as the growing sense of unease about a changing Aotearoa. Tomorrow his party will vote on a policy to remove almost all references to the Treaty of Waitangi in our laws.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

Selling property experience with Trade M

James from Raumati Beach

Property Market valuations and rental assessments

I have had the worst experience with Trade Me forcing their valuation and rental assessments onto my listing. These people have not much knowledge about property figures. My contact partner from Trade Me forced his extremely questionable figures several times onto my listing. Trade Me did not tell the truth in their counter submission to the court they stated that they changed the data only once. In the hearing I could prove them wrong so I would call this a blunt lie. The counter submission was not signed, so this can come only from a coward. It came out of the hearing that this is a matter for the Commerce Commission and that is my next step. I have never encountered that much rudeness and incompetence in my life as I have with that Senior Account Manager from Trade Me Property. Here is one example among many others. Trade Me swapped by accident the data for two properties. This seems to be a harmless mistake, but it is not when they were told politely about this and only answered with nastiness and stuck to their mistake.

Do you intend to sell your property? If yes before you list with Trade Me ask for my huge file complaining about Trade Me to the Commerce Commission. A donation of $10 will be appreciated as I have invested a lot into this matter. You may think twice of ever listing any property with Trade Me.
