We met with former Prime Minister Sir Geoffrey at the gorgeous Wellington law building.

Both Eve and I thoroughly enjoyed his new book written with his granddaughter, ‘Democracy now Aoteoroa’. One thing both Eve and I agreed with was his disenfranchisement at the rise in ‘slactivism’. This is where people think they are helping a movement by posting on social media but real change on the ground takes giving time or money.
