Why didnt they support Ron Marks bill on Gangs. They are all talk at election time. I dread whats going to happen if them ACT and United Future rule this country. Winston and NZ first has stopped the PC agenda which was pursued with gusto in porevious years. Where is national heading when it supports more prisons more tax costs.

Small things make big differences - like greater use of the LSV programme. Certainly the way to go with young offenders, so glad to see a political party recognising the quality and the value of the work NZDF do in this regard. I am interested to understand further the "new measures designed to prevent crime 'at the source' to eliminate the reasons young people enter into a life of crime".

A very worthy election issue for NZ First. Sam, I do believe that we support the Sensible Sentencing Trust on that, and have the strongest policy & politician (Ron Mark) on it so far?

There should be mandatory sentences for crime and these sentences served in full at all times. The Parole Boards and their ineptitudes (Graeme Burton, William Bell) are well documented. Also during criminal trials, previous criminal history should be tabled, for all to see. Law and order - what is needed is the abolition of the parole system..

We need smaller, localised schemes to reduce the demands on "base load" power which today also has to supply the "peak load". I would love a small wind generator and solar panels on my property, but the cost is prohibitive. For 2 people on a pension it is uneconomical. So I have to pay more and more. I cannot afford to become more self sufficient. We do not need the ETS with it new Wellington base bureaucrcay soaking up teh new taxes on power, fuel and food.
