Great, Bex. Like you I read many great submissions that made my eyes spiral and made me think of the poor sods having to read them. Then I put in a simpler plea, like yours, to do the right thing and toss the toxic thing in the trash.
Thanks Anna, and yay us! I think I am still cross that so many of us are spending our time and energy on this, instead of doing other, more interesting and positive activities.
I too am often cross these days, Bex. Then I try to remind myself it's a blip, an appalling, irritating one, but still a blip, and it will pass. I do, however, worry about what Aotearoa will be like post-blip. The stuff of nightmares.
👍👏Perfect! Mine was much more verbose, but I have lost the art of distilling ramblings down to succinct points since I ceased to routinely write reports & submissions etc. However, I figured working out my feelings in writing was important too, & perhaps an Opposition researcher might find something they can use eh? 🤷

Wonderful, thanks.
Thanks Dr Bex. I needed to read this today! Simple is good what is important is that we have a say. Ngā mihi.
I have made a submission and posted it here if you are interested.

Thank you! Ramblings are good too I think? The best submission is a submitted one after all!
Done.
Thanks for the timely reminder! Just submitted mine now.
