Councils and the GVT do not listen ??

Gordon from Halswell

How many times to you hear this?
This is often a baseless statement and sometimes a 'lie'
What it means to most who post it, is that 'they' should have listened and decided to action your recommendation.
In fact it almost certainly means that 'they' have listened … View more
How many times to you hear this?
This is often a baseless statement and sometimes a 'lie'
What it means to most who post it, is that 'they' should have listened and decided to action your recommendation.
In fact it almost certainly means that 'they' have listened and it does not fit their plan, policy, or they plain do not agree with the idea.
To some, having an idea rejected, is 'them' not listening.

Poll: Should our voting age be lowered to 16?

Ashleigh Ogden from Neighbourly.co.nz

On Monday, 21 November, the Supreme Court ruled that preventing 16 and 17-year-olds from voting is 'unjustified age discrimination'.

On Monday, 21 November, the Supreme Court ruled that preventing 16 and 17-year-olds from voting is 'unjustified age discrimination'.

The current age of voting is 18 in New Zealand and lobby group Make It 16 have been running a youth-led campaign advocating for the vote to be extended to our 16 and 17-year-olds.

“This is history,” said Make It 16 co-director Caeden Tipler. “Today New Zealand’s highest court has confirmed that stopping young people from voting is a breach of our human rights...The government and Parliament cannot ignore such a clear legal and moral message. They must let us vote.”

With public celebrations taking place following the All Blacks (men's) Rugby World Cup wins (2011 & 2015) as well as parades for the America's cup team, do you think similar celebration plans are needed for our winning Black Ferns women?
