· My wife and I were also at the Greens meeting last night in New Lynn described well below.

Breakfast-TV has only had one pro-GE message this morning - mine below was one read out. (anyone monitoring talkback? - tell us know where it's at) For non-Aucklanders - the Green meeting last night in New Lynn was passionate and uplifting. A couple of hundred people filled the hall with their determination to continue the fight for our future. Great speeches (short and sweet to allow for questions etc) from Nandor, Brendan Hoare, Steve Abel and Seager Mason? (hope I've got that right) - Brendan asked all those willing to engage in direct action to stand - the couple who didn't were noted! Ideas flowed thick and fast and the Greens were applauded for every word. I went feeling depressed and deflated. I left feeling resolute and reassured. The Royal Commission has fatally mis-stepped and missed the cues from 'ordinary' New Zealanders (actually we are not ordinary - we are extraordinary!) - but the ballot box is our powerful tool, that not one MP will fail to attend to. Get to it. Love H ----- Original Message ----- From: H.B. <.-.-.@iconz.co.nz> To: <breakfast@tvone.nzoom.com> Sent: Tuesday, 31 July 2001 08:10 Subject: Royal Commission > Where's the vision?
