Let people buy computers during lockdown
Many people that now find themselves in lockdown could work much more efficiently if they were given the opportunity to setup their homes properly.

Keep Firework Sales
Petition to keep firework sales in New Zealand For kiwis, Guy Fawkes has become an occasion signalling the coming of summer and a chance for family and friends to get together and take in the excitement of spectacular fireworks. The question is WHY take this away? It is sad to hear that so many people have signed a petition to ban firework sales but the majority must lie on the other side of the fence. Don't let the minority win. If you feel that you would like to contest the petition against f

The Removal of The GST Tax on Sanitary Products
Everyday women are being forced to pay tax sanitary products which are essential items that we need but is still being treated as a luxury good. In an article, social services secretary Pam Waugh stated that she has "...heard of them rolling up newspaper; putting it inside socks; we've heard them using old sanitary pads that they've washed or recycled; and we've also heard about them using leaves and newspapers just so that they can actually function well." On average, a women "....has her perio

Support a vote of no confidence in the petition for a vote of no confidence in Dunedin Councillors and the Mayor
Unfortunately many people do not understand the process of democracy and despite the recent democratically conducted local council elections, because they did not get the mayor they wanted they somehow believe the democratic process was not followed. Some of these people are unable to deal with the fact that there are other people out there that have a different opinion to them, so everytime a decision does not go in their favour they spend a lot of time and effort on social media moaning about

Call for more free minutes for NZers during the COVID-19 lock down
I think it’s time for the Telco corporations operating in NZ (Vodafone, Spark, Skinny, etc) to put their profits where their customers are and provide more free minutes to NZers during the COVID-19 lock down. Facetime is free, but many of our grandparents, uncles, aunties and great-grandparents don’t have smart phones to utilise this technology. For the mental health of the country, I emplore these organisations to consider providing more free minutes to landlines/mobiles so we can keep in touc
