Launching Heather Newell's campaign for Upper Hutt City Council
After a few terms away from local body politics, I have new enthusiasm and concern for our local community of Upper Hutt. I feel as if we are at the crossroads - the left hand turn is for stagnation, the right hand turn takes us on a wide and safe road leading to a beautiful look-out where we see the valley, the hills, lakes, river and lots of satisfied people. I want to be on that road! I have served Upper Hutt previously as a local body councillor and now I want to be back there, working on your behalf. When the time comes, please vote for Heather Newell.
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.

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?
