Real Republic
|
Republicans at the opening of the supreme court in Wellington were there to tell prince William that Royalty had no purpose in being there. They claimed New Zealanders future was as equal citizens under a constitution. No head of state was necessary. This would make Kiwis part of a modern democratic republic like many other nations.
"Royal deference and judicial fawning diminished Kiwis and was an anachronism in today's world" said Jack Gielen and Kerry Bevin who want a real republic of New Zealand for New Zealanders. |

Suicide Horror
|
As part of "The Working Party On Suicide" republicans Jack Gielen and Kerry Bevin helped launch a petition, into an Inquiry into suicide, Parliament today. They claimed male persecution meant the body count for males, due to suicide, was 4 times that of females. In 2 days in Wellington, hundreds of people signed the petition. Many had direct connection to suicide, several with experience in resent days. The secret shame and horror story of suicide can no longer be ignored. The working party and the Republicans want greater resources for suicide investigation and are calling on Peter Dunne, who is responsible, to do so. The petitioners want much more focus and commitment on the problem and will continue to gather signatures. |
