A Christchurch woman whose 6-year-old son was told to go f... off back to his own country says she wants police to take racist abuse incidents more seriously.

Maryam Frozan was reversing out of a Hornby Hub mall car park at the same time as another motorist about 1pm on Sunday, so drove back in to give way to the other motorist.

That motorist, a woman in her 60s, blew her horn a few times then got out of her car, strode up to Frozan’s car, put her head in the driver’s window, and verbally abused her and her son.

Police were able to track the woman down by her number plate, and she was given a formal warning for threatening behaviour. But Frozan says it is not enough, and she wants the woman charged. Continue reading here.

Election 2020: Christchurch a sea of red as voters back Labour

Greater Christchurch has overwhelmingly voted red – giving Labour all but two of its electorate seats and the majority of the party vote.

Labour supporters at the party's election event in Christchurch on Saturday night were barely able to keep a lid on their excitement and glee at National’s astonishingly poor performance in the city – and their knives came out for their parliamentary colleagues in Blue.

“At last, Christchurch has woken up,” said Duncan Webb, Christchurch Central’s incumbent.

“It’s been a long campaign, exhausting, but the reward you get for that, it’s amazing.

Wigram may be on the road to reducing speeds with proposed changes open for feedback.

Residents are encouraged to share their views on a draft plan to reduce speed limits in the area, including Lodestar Ave, Stark Dr and The Runway at The Landing.

Christchurch City Council also proposes to install P60 restrictions in the shopping section at The Landing to help customers find car spaces throughout the day in the busy central area, and in Skyhawk Rd to keep the cycle lanes clear.

People can provide feedback on the draft speed plans via the council’s Have Your Say webpage, with the deadline for submissions Wednesday, November 18.

A final decision is due in December, with any changes in place by the end of January next year.

Resonance Ensemble conducted by Tony Ryan will present Heroes and Anti-Heroes – an innovative and spectacular programme of orchestral works featuring outstanding local soloists
Christchurch’s superb specialist orchestra, Resonance Ensemble, conducted by Tony Ryan, is currently preparing another exciting programme of works from less often encountered corners of the repertoire.
Beethoven’s Egmont Overture is one of his best-known orchestral works, but few will know the other moving and dramatic music that the composer wrote for Goethe’s play. Composed towards the end of Beethoven’s extraordinarily productive middle period, the Incidental Music to Egmont is among his finest creations. Resonance Ensemble’s performance of the complete Egmont music will include soprano Helen Charlton in its two vocal movements, and Christchurch actor and singer Ben Freeth who will provide a linking narration to bring the dramatic context to life.

Two short vocal pieces by this concert’s conductor Tony Ryan will again feature the singing talents of Helen Charlton and Ben Freeth. Helen performs Ryan’s orchestral song Don Quixote, and she will be joined by Ben for It’s Christmas Here As Well which was premiered at last year’s Christchurch Symphony Orchestra Christmas Concert.

Khachaturian’s colourful and spectacular Violin Concerto may not often appear in concert programmes, but this wonderfully appealing and dramatic work, full of the composer’s familiar melodic and rhythmic genius is the major work in this programme. Featuring talented nineteen-year-old Christchurch violinist, Thomas Bedggood, this will be a performance not to be missed.

The orchestra will end with two further works by Khachaturian, his very popular Adagio from Spartacus and the swirling Waltz from Masquerade.
