Prior to moving home to New Zealand in 2017, I had been living overseas working on humanitarian and disarmament campaigns. I was abroad for 16 years, and as a proud New Zealander I frequently promoted my country as a humanitarian, peacekeeping, environmentalist, progressive multicultural society. At the time I believed these narratives completely, however, now that I am home, I know that the perspectives I shared with people in Laos or Lebanon were not truthful representations of Aotearoa New Zealand. Since my return I have been confronted by the deeply contested identity within New Zealand society. We celebrate our nuclearfree status and the suffragette movement as defining foundations of our modern society. Yet other inspiring dimensions to our shared history are less well known. The role of Kate Shepherd as an anti-war activist and the role of Parihaka in inspiring Ghandi on strategic non-violence are two significant examples. I began thinking about the contradictions which exist between how we see ourselves in New Zealand, and how the rest of the world views our society. I began thinking more broadly about how our identity shapes the role of Aotearoa New Zealand in the world. Instinctively I also began seeking platforms to share new ideas on how New Zealand engages on the global stage. I discovered that the conversations relating to our role in the world are often reserved for academics, diplomats, business leaders and suited officials. Foreign policy is not an area that receives much political or media attention and the conversations tend to exclude Maori, Pasifika, young people and community organisations. As a response, in 2018 a group of us set up New Zealand Alternative - an organisation dedicated to opening up public discussion and debate about the role our country should play in the world. We want to start a conversation with communities around the country and to generate creative ideas for what we might do as a progressive actor in the world. We’ve started to open up the space to ask these important questions. We’ve produced a report proposing that New Zealand build on our effective peace mediation work in Bougainville in the 1990s and set up a Conflict Prevention Unit. Thomas Nash Continued on page 6 

CAPTION COMPETITION WIN A $10 FERGBAKER VOUCHER FOR THE FUNNIEST CAPTION!

Continued Editorial from front page.... We’ve got some good ideas about how New Zealand can be a leader in progressive politics in the globalised era and we’re working on some policy briefs that address initiatives such as a global treaty to phase out fossil fuels, and rethinking colonialism, sovereignty, free association and migration in the Pacific. We’re holding community hui around the country from Whangarei to Dunedin to discuss what an independent foreign policy for New Zealand might look like. Our Queenstown workshop is being co-hosted by Catalyst Trust. Among the questions we are asking are, if a small Pacific nation like New Zealand can have an impact on global issues - how, what and why should it be? We look forward to Queenstown community’s input, which will be included in the framing of multiple policy papers due out by the end of the year. This is a great chance to have an informed discussion about global issues that matter. Please join us at The Rees Hotel Queenstown, 6 to 8:30 PM, Wednesday, August 7. Registration is required on Catalyst Trust’s Eventbrite page, as numbers are limited and dinner will be provided for those who register. Further information about the event on www.catalystnz.org or on Facebook, catalystnz.QT. For further information on New Zealand Alternative, see https://www.nzalternative.org/

Arts+Culture Ever wondered what Queenstown was like in the 80s? Radio K.A.O.S. is the latest production from one of Queenstown’s original theatre companies – Whirlwind Productions.

And if you’re really stuck in the 80s, track down Margaret O’Hanlon or Charlotte Graf.

Performed, written and directed by real people who survived the 80s in Queenstown (plus a few talented, fresh-faced newbies), the show is a satirical look at radio culture in the 1980s and a fun tribute to some of Queenstown’s pioneering entrepreneurs. Written by Charlotte Graf, the story follows a small-town radio station that proudly plays original, up-and-coming music. Owner Errol Spearme is the King of the town, and the sales and champagne are flowing. It’s all fun and games until the stock market crash happens and Radio K.A.O.S. 87FM is bought out by Giant Radio Network. The new network proposes to replace the DJs with computers and automate the station, but there’s a brilliant pushback from locals involved… Director Margaret O’Hanlon says the show is a, “tribute to Queenstown ‘back in the day’, but it’s fresh and off-the-cuff.” “It’s got all 80s music and a lot of Australasian musicians whom we’ve talked to directly to get permission to perform their music. We talked to Mike Chunn, the bassist from Split Endz who went on to form Mushroom Records; Debbie Hardwood from ‘When the Cat’s Away’; Dave Dobbyn and Margaret Arlette from Peking Man (a big Kiwi diva from the 80s!). A few of them have said they’ll come down to watch it and that’s a beautiful feeling that they’re so supportive.” In creating the script, writer Charlotte Graf has drawn from her own experiences. She worked as a Marketing Executive for a radio station in Queenstown ‘back in the day’ and isn’t holding back in mocking her former life. Rumour has it that co-writer Mike Legge is still in the spirit of the 1980s in that he likes to hand-write all of his scripts. Those who have been in Queenstown for a long time will recognise much of the cast, some of whom are returning to their old stomping ground to take part in the show. There’s Martin Grounds, Mark Ferguson – even local radio legend David Crow will have a part as weatherman David Bird. There’ll be plenty of newbies in the cast too. Fresh from Disney Studios in the USA is Danika Leigh Cuillo and Margaret’s daughter Violet Hirst will make an appearance too (“She plays a dizzy broad, she’s good at that,” adds Margaret.).

What’s Happening

Margaret promises an excess of 80s tunes, permed wigs, nostalgia and good humour. Find out more at whilwindnz.com or Facebook (@whirlwindnz).

Art News Yorkshire sculpture ‘too popular’

30th July, 6pm - 8pm The Sherwood, (554 Frankton Road) Free

The ‘twin’ of a Queenstown sculpture is being moved due to it being “too popular”. ‘The Seated Man’, by renowned English sculptor Sean Henry, is one of two near-identical bronze sculptures depicting a man sitting on a threelegged travelling stool. The artist travelled to New Zealand to install the 3-metre-high sculpture on Sir Michael Hill’s private golf course in November 2017. In the same year, Henry installed the sculpture’s ‘twin’ in Castleton Rigg in the North York Moors (UK). Unfortunately, the publically accessible sculpture became so popular, concerns were raised over the condition of the sculpture and that the sculpture’s many fans were causing damage to Image: James Allan Photography. ‘The the moors.

Like his Queenstown brother, Michael Hill and artist Sean Henry. Yorkshire’s Seated Man will now be housed in a private sculpture park. The sculpture will join more than 80 other art pieces at the 500 acre Yorkshire Sculpture Park near Wakefield. Following the artist’s wishes, the sculpture will sit in an impressive natural location and will still be a little tricky to find.

DRAMA WORKSHOP. Remarkable Theatre Night: Practical Workshop A practical workshop on a first working of a short play by local artist Scott Kennedy. Titled ‘The Amazing Adventures of Captain Thunderbolt and the Return of Lord Thunderclap’.

Tea’d off

1st world issues. How hard is it to get a decent cup of tea in this town.... very hard it seems. The amount of times I’ve asked for a cup of tea and get a cappuccino. Why is it we have umpteen choices if coffee but if you like a good old kiwi cuppa you get English breakfast as the only choice.

You inquire of more common brands and you get a nose turn. Why cant COFFEE shops stock a $5.box of common tea brands and can someone teach their staff how tea bags need to brew before adding milk. Gumboot etiquette

Weird Deli Service Righto, I’m reaching out to see if anybody else has been dealt this weird deli service.

She starts whipping open a plastic bag. I stop her immediately.

The other day, at popular supermarket in Frankton, I tried to get the deli to use my own containers... Actually, the same plastic container they use, just rewashed - the lady refused it - saying it’s now South Island policy to NOT ACCEPT customer containers because they’re not of food safe quality???

I’m sorry to swear here, but that’s seriously F*&^%d! How come North Island is all for this BYO container service but not the south. Have we turned all hick and backwards now??? Self Contained and trying to do good

Replies to No 1 Bus issues I’d like to add, why does the no. 2 bus from Arrowtown to Arthurs Point not go both ways. It would make so much sense to have two buses traveling in opposing directions. I would absolutely take the bus to work in Queenstown, from Arrowtown, but as it goes through Frankton it takes such a long time I would either have to get to work an hour before necessary or be rather late, so I drive. If the bus went through Arthurs point, no traffic, no problem, and I can’t be the only one that thinks so. No 2 Bus issues

I’m sure the people in the house next to the bus stop at the top of Fernhill Rd who were in a Scene story a year or two ago would love this idea too. Those poor people have buses idling their engines outside their bedroom windows 18 hours a day, 364 days a year. A bylaw states buses cant idle engines longer than 5 minutes at a time but the bus drivers say they need to keep the engines going so the buses stay warm. As soon as one bus leave there is another one in the queue right behind them too so effectively the engine noise is constant. If the buses just carried on to Sunshine Bay on every trip they wouldn’t need to do a U-turn at the top of Fernhill Rd and wait outside someones house.

In few million years the earth will still be spinning around the sun and we will have long vanished into history. I do think before we go we need to rename our species from the self proclaimed wise ape to something like the stupidest species ever created... so far.

Nameand Shame Reply to ‘Snow good Forecasters’ As soon as there is any snow, DQ and TVNZ make sure that there is wide spread coverage of the snow fall on Australian broadcasting...on the Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane chanels...its called marketing...Air NZ are probably involved in the deal as well...

Mr Greeny Reply to ‘We declare a climate...’ Should be fine unless nuclear war kicks off. Highly recommend ‘The Doomsday Machine’ from Daniel Ellsberg if you haven’t read it. Absolute miracle we are still around.

Queenstown App relaunches, delivering significant benefits to residents and visitors. The Queenstown Media Group today launched a major upgrade to its Queenstown App to improve the experience for users. The Queenstown App (previously Queenstown NZ App) has an upgrade to its platform that will increase speed of performance and improve the volume and quality of content that residents and visitors to Queenstown have told us they want. The new app is now available on Google Play and the Apple App store. “If you already have the app, great just update your existing app and it will automatically carry you across to the new platform and if you have never downloaded the local Queenstown app now is the perfect time” say David Gibbs, Commercial Operations Manager. The upgrade means the Queenstown App will sit on a local Southern Lakes designed platform and can now co-ordinate as part of a local independent app network delivering better functionality, more features, faster connection and download speeds The local network includes the Wanaka and Cromwell apps which will enable a partnership to develop across the region and deliver a regional network of information relevant to locals in Queenstown.

Other key elements of the new app include: • Increasing our commitment to local stories and stories about locals. • Introducing a features section that offers the ability to easily access key themed content. • Introducing a dedicated events section covering all the festivals, fêtes, fairs and commercial offerings. • The gig guide for everyone going out which is updated regularly. The initial site upgrade and platform development has been completed and finished testing last week with Apple App store and Google Play accepting the new app. “Already 14,600 people have downloaded the Queenstown App and the upgrade will make sure the experience is one that users will appreciate and keep returning to. We’ve seen increasing usage of the app and expect that demand to continue” says David Gibbs. When existing users next update the app they will automatically switch across to the new platform. With Apple products go to the App store and click updates. The upgrade is a major investment by the company and a commitment to providing great local content and information in a timely way and available anywhere there is wifi or a data signal. The Queenstown Media Group is the publisher of The Lakes Weekly, Queenstown TV, The Source, JobFix as well as The Queenstown App and we are continuing to invest in new products to ensure we offer the best in local content, for all Queenstown residents, locals and visitors.

Is that legal?

The financial fish-hooks of moving into a retirement village will be explored at a free public seminar in Queenstown on August 16. Many people do not fully understand the financial implications of retirement village contracts when they pay for a ‘license to occupy’ a unit, says the National Manager of Retirement Villages at the Commission for Financial Capability (CFFC), Mr Troy Churton. For example, the occupation right agreements offered by some village companies have little financial sympathy when an occupancy ends, due to the resident passing away or having to move to more intensive rest home care. The company may not pay out the unit’s capital to the family until the unit is relicensed, which can take months in some areas and they may demand that weekly fees continue to be paid during that time. “Another fish-hook may be if a married couple buy into an independent-living unit, then the husband or wife needs to move into a care facility, additional costs may apply” says Churton. The Queenstown lakes district has seven retirement villages, each containing 60-100 units. Those numbers are expected to increase to cater for the growing 75+ population, projected to rise 140% from about 16,000 today to more than 38,000 in 2043. Churton is running the free seminar on behalf of the CFFC, an independent government agency that monitors the retirement village industry. “The CFFC aims to ensure New Zealanders are fully informed objectively of the implications of moving into a retirement village before they do so and have time to obtain legal advice and discuss their decision with family” says Churton.

My African Project by Mandy Melhuish My name is Mandy, I am very much a newbie in town, having moved to Queenstown from the North Island a month ago. I have always been passionate about creating an impact in the world and when I traveled to Africa last year with the EPIC Foundation, I knew instantly this was my passion. I am leading a project to build a library in a community called Lupa Lama in Tanzania, Africa this September. Last year, I went to Tanzania as part of EPIC’s fellowship program. EPIC (Everyday People Initiating Change) is a non for profit organization, who takes on new projects every year in developing countries. The main types of projects are drilling clean water wells, helping with community development and improving health and hygiene. During that time, I took a journey, with my team, to Lupa Lama village. The head of the school shared with me the communities dream to build a library and there and then I decided to make this my objective to enable this dream, for the children, community and generations to come. The community had very limited resources for educational purposes compared with what we enjoy in New Zealand. In Tanzania especially the Government are trying to encourage the reading culture however in Lupa Lama and like a lot of rural villages, the kids have nothing to read and a lack of school materials. The cost to rebuild the internal and external structure of the room including costs of materials, labour and advice from the technician is $20,000. This is a huge goal and I cannot do this alone, so I am reaching out for your support and every small donation will help me get there. I have created a gofundme page to reach as many people as possible who would willingly to donate and support this cause because the reality is the village needs help to make this happen. The link can be found here gofundme.com/buildingalibrary

The entire project will be documented and shared in a public Facebook group where people can access all the updates. EPIC is fully supporting me and allowing me to lead the project with 3 of my close friends who are coming with me. Who are EPIC- This, non-for-profit organisation was created in 2005 by two ladies with a similar mission – Tennille Amor and Alexi Panos. (Co Founders) The main goal of EPIC and why it was formed is to show people of every race, age or social status that we all have the ability to change the world for the better every day in whatever ways we choose.

Brilliant, audaciously rogue police officer Harry Hole is back and in the throes of a new, unanticipated rage. Harry Hole is not in a good place. He’s been given a chance for a new start with the Oslo Police but it’s in the cold case office, when what he really wants is to be investigating cases he suspects have ties to Svein Finne, the serial rapist and murderer who Harry helped put behind bars. Finne is now free after a decade-plus in prison and Harry is certain, ready to take up where he left off. But things will get worse. When Harry wakes up the morning after a drunken night with blood that’s clearly not his own on his hands, it’s only the very beginning of what will be a waking nightmare, the likes of which even he could never have imagined.

19 year-old Vivian Morris arrives in New York with her suitcase and sewing machine, exiled by her despairing parents in the Summer of 1940. Although her quicksilver talents with a needle and commitment to mastering the perfect hair roll have been deemed insufficient for her to pass into her sophomore year of Vassar, she soon finds gainful employment as the self-appointed seamstress at the Lily Playhouse, a charmingly disreputable Manhattan revue theatre. There, Vivian quickly becomes the toast of the showgirls, transforming the trash and tinsel only fit for the cheap seats into creations for goddesses. Exile in New York is no exile at all. But there are hard lessons to be learned, and bitterly regrettable mistakes to be made. Vivian sets forth her story, and that of the women around her – women who have lived as they truly are, out of step with a century that could never quite keep up with them.

Well known for her artistic cake designs, Bets is a force to be reckoned with.

STILL WAITING FOR WINTER!!!!

This has feed through to the hiring decisions and fewer vacancies advertised this June. Once again open positions were down across every sector and overall there was a 15% drop in open roles compared with May (which in turn was down 15% on April). As the weather reports held little hope for snow through June the job numbers declined every week through the month, even as the school holidays approached, a traditionally better employment period.
