Hey neighbours,

In the lead up to the 2020 election, Stuff is keeping voters up to date with what’s happening in their electorate, through Neighbourly. Here’s what you need to know about the candidates in the running to be Te Tai Hauāuru's MP.

At the October 17 election, New Zealanders will have the opportunity to choose their regional spokesperson.

Through the Mixed Member Proportional (MMP) voting system, those enrolled can vote for the party they want as well as a local representative.

Why does my MP matter?

The person elected will be the voice for your region in Parliament. If you’re having trouble getting entitlements or dealing with Government departments, they can help. If your community needs funding for certain projects or activities, or there isn’t enough healthcare in the area, the elected MP can step in and help.

A 7.8 pH classifies Clean Lean Protein as Alkaline, something that no other protein can claim. Alkalinity supports muscle preservation, boosts bone density, and fights the effects of lactic acid.

Hi! I'm so excited to finally be sharing a project our team has been working on for a while now: First Rung, our first podcast!
First Rung is packed with tips, advice and anecdotes from experts and home owners on every aspect of buying your first home - it also comes with a chance to win a $500 Resene prize pack.
Over six, bite sized episodes, we cover everything from saving that deposit, to sunset clauses, to how to get your newly purchased home ready to move into.
We'll also introduce you to ordinary Kiwis, just like you, who have navigated the choppy waters of home buying in NZ and made it onto that first rung - and pick their brains for how they did it.
We all know buying a home is one of the toughest, most daunting things we might ever do as adults, so it doesn't hurt to get some expert advice and support. That's what we wanted to give you with First Rung.
So give it a listen and let us know what you think - and be in to win that mint Resene prize pack. I can't enter and I'm well jealous!

Attica Project
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to navigation Jump to search

The Attica Project is an unregistered political party in New Zealand. The party was founded by Mike Iles and Michael Kay, who left the New Zealand Outdoors Party over frustrations with its organisation and processes.[1][2] Iles and Kay say they intend to run the party as a largely leaderless movement.[1]

The party opposes neoliberal policies.[3] Its website presents policies relating to improved conservation,[4] water and soil[5] among others.

Attica is not registered for the 2020 general election, so cannot receive party votes. It is running two candidates in electorates: Mike Iles in Mana and Michael Kay in Ōtaki.[6][7][3]
