Petition of Kenneth Mulholland: Appoint a Commission to replace the Wellington City Council
On behalf of so many Ratepayers and residents of our capital city we are inviting the Members of neighbourly to express their dissatisfaction with the governance of our Wellington City Council by signing Ken's petition.
Petition request: That the House of Representatives urge the Minister of Local Government to appoint a Commission to replace Wellington City Council.
Petition reason:
In my view, poor city planning has introduced new cycle lanes, removed hundreds of on-street car parks, and has adversely affected the free flow of transport and commerce with livelihoods destroyed. I believe the Council is both dysfunctional and incapable of properly managing the city finances and that ratepayers are now faced with unreasonable rate increases. Please sign this petition and let us all make change for a better Wellington.
Signatures are now being accepted - please follow the link below to sign:

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
37.8% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
62.2% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
