    Paula Bennett. Le ther know how pissed off you are

    https://www.facebook.com/paulabennet...91649702567417

    Why can the Police have a secret report in the Govts investigation into criminal use of firearms and no one allowed to see it......among other stuff

    give her a hoozle up and tell all your shooting mates to do the same

    It went like this in the UK. look at where they are now !

    Indeed MKM. Remember too that written letters are a good option too. They have to be handled by admin staff, logged, opened sent to the right people, read, a response formulated and put on paper and signed, put in an envelope and handled again to deliver. All the while being paid for by party funds for postage I believe.

    Remember also that as a firearm owner and outdoors person, you also fall under the portfolio of the Minister of Sport and Recreation. Shooting is a sport and a recreation. Once you have finished writing to the Minister of Police you may like to write to the Minister of Sport and Recreation (Jonathan Coleman) and ask what he intends to do to safeguard your sport and recreation from the suggestions in the report.

    politics is the profession for those unable to obtain employment as a used condom washer in your local house of ill repute.
    scientific research has virtually confirmed what the decent firearms owner has known for centuries- what do polis lawyers and accountants have in common-alluse their personalities as contraception.
    finally dont vote you only encourage the bastards!!

    If you send 121 copies, they will distribute to each and every MP.

    If you want to send a letter to all members of Parliament, send us 121 copies of your letter in one envelope. Include a covering note asking for a copy to be distributed to each MP.

    Address your envelope:

    All members of Parliament
    Care of Distribution Services
    Freepost Parliament
    Private Bag 18 888
    Parliament Buildings
    Wellington 6160

    No postage stamp is needed when you're writing to a member of Parliament. This distribution service is available only for letters. We don't forward copies of emails to members of Parliament or Ministers.

    Talk like that in the U.S.A. is what got Trump in......Effectively voters saw him as a protest vote or a vote of n"no confidence" in the current selection.

    Same thing happened here in the 90s. A massive disappointment in parties winning elections and becoming government with less than half the vote saw a protest vote on a referendum that got us MMP. I will not comment as to which system is better as that is not the point. The point is that if First past the post was working, there would not have been a vote to start with....
