Party Policies

Gordon from Halswell

How about this for a non-partisan idea to help people make informed decisions on the best party for the,
All parties have to submit their policies for their 3 year term 2 months before the GE.
They then do their canvassing and talking about those policies as they tour around.
Currently, they are putting out policies and counter policies while people can not keep up with where each party is.
Obviously the last of the policies has very little time to be digested and debated.
It is like Xmas with Santa Claus handing out Xmas presents to the kiddies.
Agree or disagree?

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.
