Auckland Council and the Auckland RSA have come together to provide plenty of opportunities for Aucklanders to honour the military veterans who displayed courage serving our country.

Although the number of in-person services and ceremonies across the region is reduced as a result of the red-light setting during planning, there are still many ways to commemorate at home or in the community.

The dawn service at the Auckland War Memorial Museum is limited to veterans and invited guests only. The public are encouraged to view the service at home on Māori Television.

Visit ourauckland.nz/anzacday for ways to commemorate Anzac Day.

Kia ora,

We need your support and 1 minute of your time to sign the Petition.

West Auckland population is over 240,000 and yet we do not have a full scale hospital. And most astonishing highlight is that we only have 1.2 beds per 1000 people!!!! 1.2 BEDS!!!!!

Forget full scale, the Ministry of Health 'Capital Investment Committee' has deferred any upgrades to the Master Plan of the DHB indefinitely, which means we are back in the queue while the hospital continues to disintegrate.

Please add your voice to send a message to the Minister of Health that West Needs his endorsement to the Master Plan. He can do it.

You can find the link to the petition here: www.savewaitakerehospital.nz...

Please share it with your family and friends too.

Many thanks

The LEADER front page story highlights the problem we face in trying to avoid global warming.
Auckland introduced an extra tax but this is not working and people are still using private cars rather than public transport. So to raise the $150 million we should permit cars to only be used every other day.
Simple to do just allow cars with even number plate to run on even days and cars with odd number plate to run on odd days.
Now if you must travel on your off day for hospital appointment or some emergency you can purchase a permit online with a credit card for say $25 thus allowing registration number ABC 123 to use the road between 6am and 6pm on an even day. All cars can use the roads overnight between 6pm and 6am without a permit.
If you are caught between 6am and 6pm without a permit on your off day then a fine of $100 is imposed reduced to $50 if paid within 7 days.
This restriction will cause us all to plan journeys differently and hopefully make many more of us use the buses and fill them up.
The reduction of bus fares will certainly help due in April. If we still do not fill the buses then a $1 anywhere on its route could be tried or even free fares BUT we must fill the buses somehow and SAVE FUEL which is causing global warming and pollution.
Walking to catch the bus is HEALTHY exercise which is another plus
