DON'T SPEAK FOR ME!!
I'm really annoyed (incensed is probably a better word) that a very small group of people calling themselves Citizens' Alliance, put out a big ad "on behalf of the residents of Nelson". This group are putting out misinformation using inflammatory words, and mis-stating what councillors are doing on current issues--- I think they're actually creating their own spin on issues. As well as stating wrongly that they're representing our views.
You only have to do a bit of research to find out the true facts.
Is anyone else angry that this small group are stating they are speaking on behalf everyone in Nelson?
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.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
