OATH BREAKING
On several occassions since Feb 2017 I have tried engaging by email with the following Councillors;
Councillors who are ignoring me/us or negating and our concerns regarding the Library, Chris Carson, John Gwilliam, Glenn McArthur, Paul Lambert, Dave Wheeler and Blair Griffiths.
Despite the fact they have sworn to engage with ratepayers, to represent ratepayers and to facilitate the democratic process by helping ratepayers access their Council by assisting ratepayers navigate the process to present their concerns to Council. Whether they agree with the ratepayers concerns or not, whether they like the ratepayer or not.
Do you want to elect and pay people to represent your interests when they feel they can ignore you and refuse to do their sworn duty? They in dereliction of their duty!!
If they can do it to me/us they can and will do it to you!
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
