I like it.

Maybe places like Plimmerton, Cambourne Whitby......

It's stupid.

+ and agree, why on earth did Rongotai need to be renamed.

Yes, geographically the portion of Ohariu that has been incorporated into Hutt South is senseless. It has apparently got something to do with the housing boom and population growth in the area. Otaki, I would have thought would have remained in the new Kāpiti boundary. That's annoying for you +

Ooooo right. A very Nat sort of arrangement.

I have shady info about this - is this regarding borrowing money from his parents and some property dispute?

Apologies. Hadn't realised he had won that seat earlier. So he won another time when the Blue's surf was up, in the Key era. I think Ginny won in 2017, and then 2023. She's running again in 2026. Our old electorate (Ohariu) has been disestablished. We will be in the Hutt Sth electorate 4 election 26

Oh deary me. Aa an aside, I would need to ask does he really have deep roots in the Hutt?
Yes, he won a typically red seat in 2023 during the blue pushback.But. The Hutt itself always was union city back in the day before we lost manufacturing. Its never been a blue strong hold.

It really is poor form to not know electorates if you're writing about them.

November 29, 2025 at 8:36 PM
Wow, they got that so incredibly wrong.

A). The beret is fantastic.
B). I'm happy you took a trip to Hills Hats.

I just stare out the window and gaze into the dying light, which is fine, but in saying that, I do have something saved up for a good sleep in lieu of a storm.
November 28, 2025 at 7:34 AM
Ew.
November 28, 2025 at 7:32 AM
Thats awesome thanks Stinky. I *used* to know someone with a profile there and I just checked it. He's still there. He's a devious character. Might be him that's done this, although I have no reason why he would. Thanks again for the link.
November 25, 2025 at 4:30 AM
Thanks. That's my guess too. I'm going to look for a report button. I'm not super worried, just a bit perplexed.
November 25, 2025 at 4:18 AM
Yeah, it's weird. Those were my thoughts I don't know why anyone would do that.
Am considering next steps but it isn't too urgent right now.

Thank you for speaking to the councilors at the public submission stage. This is a huge kick on the guts for women like me who voted for AL. And then Chung getting away with the "hot mic" moment. He doesn't deserve to be in an influential position chairing the council owned assets committee.

Sharp moves. Walk across that floor NZ First, like you mean it.
November 24, 2025 at 11:15 PM
Can't top what you just said. It's that simple and that dire.
November 24, 2025 at 10:12 PM
Hopefully you'll have support around you when that time comes.😔
