Retired Unionists" Movement (RUM) - Manawatu

John from Roslyn - Terrace End

All retired union members and officials are invited to the launch of a Manawatu branch of RUM on Thursday 27 March, 12,30 to 2.30pm, at PSA office 198 Cuba St (Manawatu House). This is a forum for retirees who would like to keep connected with the trade union movement and to continue to support working people in their struggles. Our kaupapa is to campaign for union rights, fairness at work, end poverty, a better world for our children. We will also seek to fundraise for Unionaid, the international aid agency of the NZ Council of Trade Unions. Thanks, John Shennan.

Anzac

Carol from Hokowhitu

What has happened to ANZAC, driving around Palmy for 2 hours, we saw no display or shows of support for this week's commemorations. Our house was the only one, that had a display, 4 had flags. We came from Westport, 3 years ago, and the small town would put us to shame, every third house had a display and all the inhabitants turned out in their droves for the 6 am ceremony.
