THE MAYOR AND COUNCILLORS

Jan from Ebdentown

I speak only to my direct experience of The Mayor and Councillors.

I began a conversation with my Mayor and Council in February 2017.
I exercised my democratic right to ask for information and to lobby Councillors.

I began posting to neighbourly documenting the treatment that I received at their hands, to much to go over again here. I stopped when the Library closed

I picked up the saga again when the Library reopened and as a result of my journey and the way I have been treated by my elected representatives, I have learned how our democracy is being eroded by people who don't want to be accountable to their ratepayers.

I hope that you will go back and read 2017 posts and that this has cleared up any confusion as to where I am coming from.

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
