We could easily lose what we have gained. Our success, or failure, depends on the decisions that we’ll each make alone – but which in turn – will affect all of us.
Two weeks then a review
• On 11 May, we will review our progress and decide if we can safely continue to step down restrictions, or if more measures are required to protect us all.
• So the decisions we each make now, matter. Because every interaction we have is an opportunity for the virus to spread.
Keeping safe at Alert Level 3
• At Alert Level 3, the best way to keep those around you safe, is by keeping your bubble small. Interact with as few people as possible. Less people equals less risk. And continue to stay at home whenever you can.
• We should each be making the minimal number of trips. Be sure to stay local, and only make necessary trips.
• And importantly, work and learn from home if you can.
Let’s do this
We’re a team of 5 million. Formidable. And we can do this.
So thank you New Zealand for making the right decisions, when it really counts.

I am inviting children to say thank you to those providing essential services by producing art championing the work of our doctors, nurses, garbage collectors, supermarket and pharmacy workers and the many others in a way that is consistent and safe with the “stay home save lives” message.
The art is to be of anybody doing essential work, whether it be on the frontline in our hospitals, our caregivers at home, our emergency services or the cleaners, lab technicians, supermarket workers, truck drivers, port workers and farmers who are keeping us safe and well.
Please photograph your art and email to me at parmjeet.parmar@parliament.govt.nz.
Shortlisted art (ages 1 to 12) each week will be published on my website.
The competition is for the lockdown period.

I don't believe the rates decrease will even be looked at, he will have his yes councilors to stop this happening for sure. Any thoughts even if 83% of you voted for decrease in last posting on this subject .

Really quite so excited
Pouring over shopping lists
And looking so delighted
Mum putting on her dress
and kicking up her heels
Dad putting on his game face
To get the food to cook the meals
A little like a game of roulette
I wish them well on their caper
As most stores are out of stock
Of necessities like loo paper
Looking like a surgeon
They face off with their masks
Prepared to ward off the virus
They wait in line, 2 metres apart
And then like a bull to a flag
The store allows them in
And quickly they disappear
Down aisle’s and out again
Never did I think the mundane
Could bring such delight
And when the Alert is over
We deserve a SHOUTOUT for doing what was right
Be Safe
Be Kind
