The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The annual refugee quota will lift from 1000 to 1500 by July 2020, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced this week. Before 2016 the refugee quota sat static at 750 for 30 years, well behind many other western nations. The National Government then raised it to 1000. Is it enough?

Wait! There’s more! Because I am upgrading I have a mover lined up and (to avoid the emotional distress of option B - the dump) I will pay half of your delivery... $100
So! Installed at your home for a hundy.
Terms and conditions apply- needs to happen on Friday 28th September. The movers are reputable (Amoova check their website) so you don’t even need to be in.
Call me on 0274590071 if any questions.
Cheers, Andy
