Is Anzac Day any more sacred than the right to peaceful protest?

Jared Nicoll Reporter from Kapi-Mana News

A silent protest at Anzac Day commemorations in Wellington has angered many who say the day should be off-limits to protesters. The debate was sparked after NZ First chief of staff David Broome, and his 12-year-old-son James Isa-Broome, interrupted a Newshub interview with peace activists.

Meeting this Saturday April 1, 11 am to 12.30 pm, Titahi Bay Community Church Hall, Mana Ave. When I was a child I was in shows in the hall. It has historic value. American marines built it for the community. Generations have performed and enjoyed the shows there. It has been sitting abandoned for years. The current mayor wants to help save it. Come and help!

The project needs energy, sponsors, trades people, voluntary labour, materials, services.

This hall is a wonderful resource for our community.
