I READ that this Government is going to increase the intake of refugees from 1000 to 1500 (ODT,

1.7.20). Being a registered voter and with the elections coming up, I would like to know where these refugees are coming from, and where they are going to.

I LIVE in Central Otago and was recently admitted to the cardiac ward in Dunedin Hospital. The attention I received was just brilliant. Doctors, nurses and all other staff were very helpful and I received all the medical help I needed. Excellent meals. Well done and thank you, Dunedin Hospital.

THE National Party seems to have followed the advice of the gardening fraternity who tell us winter is the best time for cutting back any old wood or weaker parts and removing wayward younger growth that is difficult to control. Simon Bridges, Paula Bennett, Michelle Boag, Hamish Walker and Todd Muller have all had the chop!
