Have you heard about Funky Monkey?

Denise Piper Reporter from Whangārei Leader

Funky Monkey is an orca who doesn't quite know his own size - he managed to dodge disaster when he got stuck on a shallow sandbank in Whangārei Harbour on Tuesday, thanks to some sun prevention from Orca Research Trust. Now the trust is encouraging people to call in any sightings of orca.

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 Tokerau'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.
