Welfare policy
I have emailed this to the top five political parties
I intend to ask all political parties to respond to a report I have written on disabled people and marginalisation in New Zealand. A Comprehensive Analysis by Glen McMillan
I have produced five books. Some are now used as training manuals; all are available as e-books or PDF downloads from my website, www.childrenwithdisability.co.nz....
My book, Disabled People and Marginalisation in New Zealand, contains facts and statistics on the connection between crime and disability. I have used appropriate illustrations.
I would like you to please read the book or PDF. It is full of facts and statistics with links to government websites. I would also like you to read the other four books if you want to be in government. These are issues that need attention.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.9% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.6% ... It is complicated
A Neighbourly Riddle! Don’t Overthink It… Or Do?😜
