    NZ didnt have any convicts, you are thinking of Australia, but nice try.

    And I do get a vote... and I am going to vote NL, just to piss you turkeys off before I leave. HTH

      We don't have PR so your vote is unlikely to make a difference unless you are in a marginal seat.

            Well just think of it as me cancelling out a tory vote. Every little vote helps.. and yes I do live in a marginal seat.

              That is as cruel as just before leaving the pub programming the jukebox to play the smurfs ten times.

                breached an undertaking by the authorities in England, who, in setting up New Zealand as a separate Colony from Australia, had agreed that NO convicts were to be shipped. This action by the British Government was seen by the Auckland people as a total betrayal.

                Scarcely had this matter quietened down, when, just over a year later, on the 14th November, 1843, a second vessel named the Mandarin, under Captain T. Smith, arrived in the harbour with another thirty-one Parkhurst 'immigrant boys" aboard. She had sailed from Gravesend on the 18th June 1843 via Hobart, Australia.

                The news of the arrival of more 'Parkhurst Boys' aboard the Mandarin spread rapidly around the growing township. The populace of Auckland were outraged!

                  Well I wasn't intending on voting, but after reading this I shall use my vote for Mr.Cameron the other 'big' party to cancel your vote out.

                      Working class people are ignored because they don't use their voice.

                      If you can't be arsed to get up and vote, expect to get ignored.

                      Voter turnout in this country is shocking.
