Why I voted against Mayor Prendergast for Local Government New Zealand
- Bryan Pepperell - Back To The Future
- The position of president of Local Government New Zealand is too important to be held by a peak oil denier. That is why I would not support Mayor Prendergast in her bid for the position. Peak oil is the most serious issue that we face on a local and global level. I made that clear while the Dompost reporter was recording proceedings. Furthermore, the mayor has shown nothing of the balancing qualities needed in a democratic role. Democracy is much bigger than one person getting their way. Majority rule is always to be balanced with minority protection and sharing the benefits.Bryan Pepperell Wellington City Councillor for Southern

40 votes: now what?
- The Wellingtonista
- So after an intensely frustrating day for local politics anoraks, as every other city got to find out who its mayor was going to be, the preliminary Wellington results have been announced, and we have… …no winner? With all the other candidates knocked out and their preferences redistributed (this might be a good time to brush up on how STV works if you’ve forgotten) Kerry Prendergast is ahead of Celia Wade-Brown, 24,468 votes to 24,428. Yes, that’s a 40-vote gap. And what’s more—all the votes haven’t actually been counted yet. Say what? Update: The preliminary results are now up on elections2010.co.nz and the City Council website. And we’ve added a roundup of the council results down the bottom. What are the uncounted votes? There appear to be about 900 special votes still to be counted. We don’t have an exact number. Because the third-placed candidate, Jack Yan, is far behind the top two, all that matters is whether the special voters ranked Kerry or Celia higher. Additionally, votes that are postmarked today will be counted when they arrive. Nobody knows how many of these there are. So who’s going to win? Celia needs to get slightly more than half of the uncounted votes (about 55%, or 491, if there are 900 of them) to win. Otherwise, Kerry wins. Conventional wisdom says special votes usually favour ‘the left’. We’re sending a minion to research how the special votes broke in the last couple of elections and will post about that when we know. When will we find out who won? The only media coverage we’ve seen of this is a tweet from @NZStuff saying the election “may not be decided until Wednesday”. Update: The Dom Post is now reporting that special vote counting will begin on Monday. But the City Council Twitter feed said Kerry had been re-elected! Yes, and that’s very naughty of them. (Addendum: see this comment thread.) How many people voted? According to the Council website, 44,465 people had voted as of Thursday, about 33% turnout. That’s not counting however many more votes turned up on Friday and Saturday, but still—shame on the other two-thirds of you. Update: It appears the last two days of voting brought turnout up to about 40%. What about the Council? According to the preliminary results… Eastern Ward: Leonie Gill and Ray Ahipene-Mercer have been re-elected. Simon “Swampy” Marsh has knocked off Rob Goulden. Lambton Ward: Ian McKinnon and Iona Pannett have been re-elected. Stephanie Cook appears to have been re-elected as well, but she didn’t make it past Marcus Ganley until everyone else was eliminated, and if there are enough specials there’s an outside chance Ganley could sneak past her. Michael Fowler, if you’re wondering, came fifth behind Ganley. Northern Ward: Hayley Wain is out, pushed into fifth place behind Gareth no-not-that-one Morgan and newcomer Justin Lester, who topped the poll. Helene Ritchie and Ngaire Best have been re-elected. Onslow-Western Ward: Andy Foster, Jo Coughlan, and John Morrison have all been re-elected. Southern Ward: Bryan Pepperell has been re-elected. Paul Eagle has taken Celia Wade-Brown’s vacated seat.

Social Justice Week 2013: Unemployment – the local face of a global concern
- Welcom
- Social Justice Week, 8-14 September, 2013 September 2013 Unemployment affects everyone, particularly young people whose ability to find work has been hindered by the loss of jobs after the 2009 economic recession. Four years on, youth unemployment remains high throughout the world. In New Zealand, 75,000 Kiwis agead 15-24 are not in employment, education or training. For young people on the margins, the repercussions of long-term unemployment can be scarring. Each year New Zealand’s Catholic Bishops use Social Justice Week to consider Catholic social teaching on a specific social justice issue relevant to our society. This year the focus for 8 to 14 September is on ‘meaningful work for the young worker’. Caritas Aotearoa New Zealand has provided resources for Catholic parishes, schools and the wider community. The core booklet Walk Alongside: Meaningful work for the young worker helps us to consider what it is like to be a young worker today and the difficulties young people face as they look for stable work. The bishops also challenge individuals and communities to consider how they can accompany or ‘walk alongside’ the young people around them. Other resources include posters, prayer cards and liturgical resources, as well as a special website on the issue. Now more than ever, young people need the encouragement of their wider community and of the church. The local face of a global concern On his way to World Youth Day last month, Pope Francis talked with journalists about his concern for the impact of the economic recession on young unemployed people. In New Zealand, one in six young people looking for work cannot find a job. This is a concern for the whole community. Work that is meaningful enhances human dignity. It gives people enough to live on and leads to lifelong, secure employment. New Zealand’s labour market has been slow to recover from the economic recession and the number of jobs available is still below pre-recession levels. Young people are often at the end of long job queues. New entry jobs for young graduates are few. A baby blip in the early 1990s means there are now 42,000 more people aged 20 to 25 entering the labour force than five years ago. Fact – 42 percent of all casual workers are aged 15 to 24. Young people tend to work in casual employment with no fixed hours or job security. These jobs tend to be the first to go in times of financial hardship. Many tertiary graduates are struggling to find work in their field of study. In 2012, the Ministry of Education told Victoria University primary teaching students that only a fifth of graduates would find work within a year of graduating. A recent graduate, Nicole Jenness, has applied for more than 60 teaching roles and, after 10 months of searching, has yet to find a teaching job. Pope Francis has said, ‘We have all become accustomed to this disposable culture... With all the young people out of work, even they are affected by a culture in which everything is disposable.’ Government responses such as the Starting-Out Wage and the 90-day probationary period continue to reinforce a disposable culture where young people may be seen as a source of cheap labour and deprived of a just wage. Economic recessions come and go, but the impact of insecure work and unemployment on young people and our community can be long lasting. For young people on the margins, job insecurity and unemployment further pushes them towards disengagement because they miss out on a sense of belonging in society. Reflecting the sentiment of Pope Francis we, as a community, are called to walk together towards a culture of inclusion where the skills and contribution of everyone can be recognised and realised.

Gale Whips Up Entries
- Wellington Orienteering Association
- Would you believe another record entry - and after a day of gale force winds! In fact the winds died down right on cue as participants were set off four by four on Tony van Dyk's course at Silverstream Retreat. Constrained by the need to cross under a busy road, the course was nevertheless similar to last week - a two-loop micr-o on the Hutt riverbank followed by common third loop through the buildings (ancient and modern) of the retreat. This offered significant route choice so it wasn't just follow the leader, even for those groups which were closely matched.

LGWM: 3 Big Flaws
- Eye of the Fish
- Hi all. It’s been a long time since I’ve posted (feels like it could be ten years). But I’m back to raise some major flaws with the LGWM plans because this has been a near and dear subject to me over the past 20 years. None of these flaws appear to be necessary compromises forced by cost or other constraints. And it appears we could fix them without additional cost. If we do fix them, we’ll have a much better transit network for Wellington. We won’t get a shot to do this over, so we should do it right.

Sir Michael Fowler
- Eye of the Fish
- It’s a rare thing for an Architect to become a Mayor – and even rarer for an Architect to become a Knight. We (NZ) have only got a couple of benighted Architects, and there has only ever been one person who has attained both honours. Our only knighted Architect Mayor, Sir Michael Fowler, has sadly just passed away. I was not in Wellington when he was around, and only knew of him in a second-hand manner at the time, so I have asked an esteemed contributor to the site if he would like to say a few words. And lovely words they are.

Mahi māra Māehe
- Kaicycle
- The summer abundance is still upon us - our zucchinis and cucumbers have had a truly bumper season, tomatoes are ripe, and we look forward to harvesting sweetcorn and blue corn soon! Nevertheless, it cannot be denied that the sun is setting earlier in the evening and we’re starting to transition our garden beds to their autumn and winter crops, or a nitrogen fixing cover crop where heavy feeders had been. We’re pleased to say that we’ve had more volunteers than ever generously sharing their time and skills with us, and we’re stoked to have composting back on the menu at our Thursday evening volunteer sessions. Recently volunteers have helped us to upgrade the seedling hardening-off area, harvest oats and make a raised bed for asparagus. If you’ve been to the farm recently, you might have noticed that many of the plants are going to seed. Fear not, this is not neglect but intentional. Seeding plants make a great talking point for school and education visitors and we can do seed saving activities with them and volunteers. We are saving and reusing more of our own seeds, to increase our self reliance on the farm. We enjoy everyone’s company and time so are pleased to offer them some of the tasty produce from the māra. It also feels wonderful to donate masses of produce to the Newtown Community Centre’s meals and the Home of Compassion Soup Kitchen - sharing the aroha and nutritious fresh kai with those in need in our community.

Exhibition - Deborah Barton
- The Wellingtonista
- Deborah Barton is a Wellington-based print maker. She has done a number of exhibitions, and is about to open at the Solander Gallery in Lyall Bay this Saturday, 13 October. Deborah's prints are dark and intriguing, with overtones of childhood mysteries. And now for the good news. As a young artist Deborah's work is surprisingly reasonably priced... Need I say more.

Bob’s back
- Eye of the Fish
- You may well have noticed already, but an interesting little spat is brewing to enliven the local body elections next year. Apparently, the Mayor Her Worship Kerry Prendergast is being persuaded to run again, as no valid alternatives are coming forward. I find that hard to believe, and note with interest that Bob Jones, as part of Vibrant Wellington, is making moves.

A City for People
- Decades of inaction have meant house prices are out of control, while old rental properties rot out from underneath us. A whole generation of people are at risk of being forced out from the central city into new suburbs sprawling north, spending hours every day in traffic jams. We believe the Spatial Plan will allow Wellington to plan for the future so that new generations of Wellingtonians can share the city we love, and have a chance to live in a home that is affordable, accessible, healthy and warm.
