WHANGAREI BIRD RESCUE
Disappointed to read Northpower have cut their annual donation to our famous Whangarei Bird Rescue. Robert and Robyn work tirelessly and don't deserve to have to go looking for Sponsorship. Northpower has a monopoly for power in our District and surely $14000 p.a won't make a hole in their funds...I am sure if enough of us protest this decision and remind them it extremely NEGATIVE...a rethink with the publicity will be a POSITIVE STATEMENT and will probably be worth than what is required!..I have had 3x accounts with Northpower (some commercial) for 3 x decades and this does not sit well with me, nor many of my family and friends....I have written to Mr Macmillan WILL YOU??
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
