ANZAC DAY Update – Melissa Lee MP
It is over a century since the guns fell silent on the Western Front in the First World War and nearly 70 years since the Korean War began. This weekend as we reflect in our homes rather than at local Dawn Services we acknowledge the service of all those who served for New Zealand in Gallipoli, the Somme, Malaya or are out on patrol today with the United Nations.
We shall remember them this Anzac Day.
Remember to keep safe and all the best for the weeks ahead, my contact details are below if you need any assistance.
Kind regards,
Melissa Lee MP
National List MP based in Mt Albert
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
