    Dunedin does not have the population to support the stadium and or we can't afford it...

    100 million dollars thats today... when the come to build it the final figure will be closer to 300 million (when have you ever seen anything be on budget)

    the fact is we simply can't afford it. The price of living is high enough as it... itf this goes ahead... rates will go up... and then rent goes up... which will effect those on the lower income... I know im not that good at math but I am not that bad.

    And if you're a renter, you don't even get to vote in the DCC "poll". It goes to "ratepayers" only, and only one per household (addressed to the person whose name appears first on the rates bill). On that basis, your landlord probably gets several votes......

    The DCC have had a barrage of outraged citizens phoning them, asking for their poll paper, but the DCC said they won't issue more as "it might skew the results".

    Got heaps of labour in the prisons...
    They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
    Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
    At the going down of the sun and in the evening,
    we will remember them
