Poll: Do you support Matariki becoming a public holiday?

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

Labour is promising to make Matariki New Zealand’s twelfth public holiday. It would be the first new public holiday since the Third Labour Government made Waitangi Day a public holiday in 1973, although then Prime Minister Norman Kirk called it “New Zealand Day”.

Please mark any comments Not For Publication if you do not want to be quoted in a story.

Jakki from Miramar

I would like to try and repair my heater instead of just buying a new one. I can't seem to find a repair shop in Wellington. Can anyone suggest one please?
