Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

Yeah I've often had this thought about protests too. As a student, the student's association would organise protests with a free BBQ to get the students to come.

In this specific case, I think the entertainment was at Waitangi Park? So it's an event for protestors, but in my mind the protest itself was the walking from Cape Reinga/Bluff and gathering at parliament.

Good point, the travel disruption and congregation on parliament grounds was the protest
