With talk of new Hate Speech Legislation in NZ, it would be interesting to see the effect such legislation has had in other countries.

You are invited to come to a free talk by respected NZ historian, PROF PAUL MOON on HATE SPEECH AND FREE SPEECH IN NEW ZEALAND

Where: Spark Room, Christchurch Central Library, Turanga, Gloucester Street, Christchurch
When: 2.00pm, Sunday, June 16.
Limited seating: The Spark Room has only seats 60.

Admission: A plate of finger food. Please avoid pork and seafood products. A collection will be taken to defray expenses.

With talk of new Hate Speech Legislation in NZ, this free talk shows how ineffective such legislation has been; and offers a robust alternative to counter ideologies of prejudice and intolerance.

NZ Friends of Israel wishes to acknowledge the kind support of the Holocaust Centre of NZ. This address was originally part of their Human Rights Series of lectures.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER Having written over 25 books, Professor Paul Moon is one of New Zealand’s best-selling and respected historians and social commentators. His specialist area is New Zealand history, and in 2014, he was shortlisted for the international Ernest Scott Prize in History for his book Encounters: The Creation of New Zealand, which academics described as ‘powerful’ and ‘truly fascinating’. His works have been published by Penguin Random House, and HarperCollins. He has worked on several Treaty claims, and with numerous government agencies, on Treaty-related issues. In 2003 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society at University College, London, and has since gained fellowships in the Royal Geographical Society and the Royal Society of Arts. He also has been a consultant on documentaries about New Zealand history

Motorists will soon have to pay $15 to park all day in a city council-owned central Christchurch parking building.

The Christchurch City Council decided to increase the price from $10 to $15 citing the Christchurch Hospital park-and-ride operating from the parking building and new shops and businesses opening nearby.

"There is now high demand for short stay parking and the Lichfield St parking building regularly nears capacity," it said.

The new charge will start on July 1. The council said it hoped charging more would free up more short stay parking spaces.

The Lichfield St car park building has 805 parks and initially ran below capacity.

A more realistic outcome is early burnout, loss of motivation and potential mental health issues in later life.

Since 2008 we’ve seen a 60% surge in sporting injuries among under 14s. This is twice that of any other age group.

We’ve talked with the experts to discover how to maintain Kiwi kids’ sporting balance, and how you can help them reach their potential:
