Policy NZ - The complete guide to NZ Election 2020
While running as a candidate for the Whangarei District Council (Bream Bay ward) election last year I took part in the 2019 local elections tool Policy Local, to present my policies and priorities.
Now the platform is back as Policy NZ, providing us voters with a complete guide to the NZ Election 2020, including the policies, parties, candidates, and (coming soon) referendums. The Policy NZ team summarised 900+ policies from 550+ documents and speeches, and surveyed 500+ candidates across every electorate.
Research from the Electoral Commission shows that one in three non-voters cite ‘not knowing who to vote for’ as their main reason for not voting. Now there's no more excuse for not knowing - and for the roughly two thirds of us who vote the same as always, for whatever dubious reasons, it might be a chance to double-check that we're still supporting the right bunch, and to care and think before casting our votes.
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!
