A quick word
Clark, Gluckman, Fyfe: “Save the economy.” Ardern: “Save lives.” Take your pick.

John Laing, Drury.
Doesn’t National want to return to power? Pamela Russell, O¯ ra¯kei.
Let’s give some tourist dollars to the Cook Islands, I am sure they would prefer this to any handouts or loans. This country has the NZ dollar as its national currency . . . well, at least at the moment.
Chris Parker, Campbells Bay.
