Meet the Candidates meetings - HCC by-election

Jamie Neighbourly Lead from Chartwell

Due to a number of people telling me they don't know the candidates, I have decided to host two Meet the Candidates events for the upcoming Hamilton City Council by-election.

The Hamilton East ward was left vacant after the passing of highly respected Councillor Philip Yeung.

MEET THE CANDIDATES EVENTS

Event 1:
St Johns Methodist Church
10-11:30am
Wednesday, 7 February, 2018
20 Wellington Street, Hamilton East

Event 2:
The Quadrant Pub and Kitchen
7:30-9pm
Thursday, 8 February 2018
391 Victoria Street, Hamilton
6 pm: Casual meet and greet over dinner and drinks with candidates and Jamie. Each person will pay for their own dinner/drinks. The “official” part starts at 7:30pm

15 candidates have put their name forward for the Hamilton East ward. All candidates have been invited to attend both Meet the Candidates events.

Friday 26 January: Postal voting period opens
​Saturday 17 February: Election Day and preliminary results

If you would like to hear more about the candidates, in order to decide who would best represent you, please feel free to attend either event. You are welcome to bring your friends and families too.

Warm regards,

Jamie Strange - Hamilton-based Labour list MP

Poll: Should employees be able to work from home?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

At the post-Cabinet press conference, the National Party asserted they want public sector staff to return to the office. This has opened a conversation about other sectors in New Zealand who have adopted working from home (WFH).

Where possible, do you think employees should be able to work from home? Vote below and share your thoughts in the comments.
