New Zealand Prosecute Palmy Teen for assaulting THREE woman
A judge says a teenager who indecently assaulted three women could avoid a conviction. Te Rangiaho Ian Williams, 18, was to be sentenced in the Palmerston North District Court on Thursday for the indecent assaults. But Judge Stephanie Edwards put the case off until September so a discharge without conviction could be considered. ”I’m troubled by this case,” she said. Each time Williams ran up behind a woman and indecently assaulted them. New Zealand this is an opportunity to band together and p

Oppose the AGM of Te Kotahitanga Maori Reservation Trust held by ZOOM.
As a beneficiary and those who oppose the Annual General Meeting being held Saturday 19th of December 2020 by Zoom, I seek the Trustees to move the AGM to a ‘Kanohi-ki-te-Kanohi’ physical forum. According to the Maori Reservation Regulations 1994 sect.19(2a); the Trustees have breached their obligations to ensure that the Annual General Meeting shall be open to attendance of all beneficiaries or other persons whose benefit is intended. We have beneficiaries who have 'No Confidence' in a Zoom AG

Crush the Quarry Featherston - Stop the Rock Crushing Onsite!
The quarry approved for Featherston and already started is just 3.8km away from our main street on Underhill Road. When we factor in wind, the quarry dust (and potentially damaging silica) has the ability to reach the township. The quarry also has devastating environmental aspects. The Quarry is approved (for now), so as a community we have the chance to stop the crushing on-site and ugly stock piling. Keep your kids breathing clean air. Be able to hang out your laundry and open the window

Let butchers open during the lockdown
Many people including myself buy their meat at independent butchers rather than the supermarket. Now the butchers have been told they have to close as they are 'non-essential'. We, the signers of this petition, disagree. It is unfair and makes no sense. A dairy and a greengrocer can open but a butcher next door cannot. Supermarkets shouldn't be given a monopoly on the sale of meat. See also: Coronavirus: Piles of meat to be given away, thrown out after butchers told they're not an 'essential bu
