Winston Peters addressed our ‘Grey Power AGM on 31 May. He noted that we didn't have our usual good sized crowd which was disappointing to say the least. In fact he gave us a talking to that this is one time when ‘Grey Power' really should be increasing membership and flexing its muscle.
Mentioning as I did in my last letter that we pensioners are and can be the largest lobby group in NZ, 600,000 people set to reach 1 million, who can argue with that, shake of the apathy, you can do something even if it's just pen to paper! Mr Peters gave a very informative address as he always does!
He said there is no way he thinks a written Constitution with the Treaty of Waitangi enshrined in it should happen and like the rest of us wonder why we are even discussing it for we have more pressing issues.
The next meeting is June 10 Bureta Park Motor Inn 7.30 pm Speaker David Round one of the authors of 'Twisting the Treaty' he will help enlighten you on the subject of the ‘Constitutional Review'.
