END OF LIFE CHOICE REFERENDUM

The Government elections are being held, at this stage, in September. The other referendum that we will have to vote on is the END OF LIFE CHOICE. This referendum will be binding, dependant upon the YES vote reaching 50% or more.

The Government elections are being held, at this stage, in September. The other referendum that we will have to vote on is the END OF LIFE CHOICE. This referendum will be binding, dependant upon the YES vote reaching 50% or more.
I am interested to get some idea of what people are thinking so here are some salient points to consider.
Don't depend on the polls, make your own choice.
To make sure what you are voting for here are 2 links that may be useful. referendum.govt.nz or eolc.org.nz/eolc-act
Don't be swayed by hearsay or others' opinions/bias, check for yourself how tightly limited and regulated the Act is in its final form.
The original Bill took many years going through select committee hearings then a full Govt. debate was passed by a cross-party majority when it became an Act. This is now embedded in law as an Act subject to the upcoming referendum. If a majority vote YES it will be binding on the new Govt.
This is an important issue although opinions are split, so it is timely to consider this referendum and familiarise yourself with the facts so you can make an informed vote.

NB. I am in no way associated with either side of this debate.

Poll: What do you think of CCTV on private homes?

I'm writing a story about CCTV security cameras on homes, what's the best system, how to install them, and whether or not they're a useful deterrent.

Dog companion wanted

Jackie from South New Brighton

I would like to offer a loving home to a canine companion for my dog Grace, who is a lovely natured 7-year-old Bichon X Jack Russell. Grace (pictured) has always been part of a two-dog family, and since having to put Rocky (15 years old) to sleep in February, we are both lost.

I would like to offer a loving home to a canine companion for my dog Grace, who is a lovely natured 7-year-old Bichon X Jack Russell. Grace (pictured) has always been part of a two-dog family, and since having to put Rocky (15 years old) to sleep in February, we are both lost.
I prefer a small-medium breed, not needing excessive grooming, or excessive exercise, though daily walks on the beach are the norm. I’m not wanting barkers or ones with aggressive or antisocial behavior, and I would like to view your vet’s records.
I am retired and spend most of the day at home. Most of my dogs have been ‘rescued’ and I am used to gently easing them into our quiet lifestyle.
It would have to share with two friendly cats on a small well fenced back section close to the beach.
A trial period would be required, but a spoilt inside life is guaranteed.
