An update on widening SH16 petition which closes tomorrow.
10 days ago we only had just under 800 signatures so I emailed all the Rodney local board members to see if they would give it a push through their mailing lists. Not one of them bothered to reply or give any assistance whatsoever. So on Monday I emailed Chris Penk, our local MP. He rang me within two hours thanking me for running the petition and indicated that he would spread the word, and since then we now have just under 1300 signatures, so well done Chris.
As you will now be aware the government has neglected our area in its latest infrastructure rollout so it is up to us to keep the pressure on before the election.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
