Dear John .. Although I've been a Labour supporter for many years, since National was elected last year, I've found myself unexpectedly, to say the least, agreeing with many of the things your Government has done. However, when it comes to having the Royals over, I hope this will not incur a cost to the New Zealand tax payer, as if so, what a waste of cash, having dossers like them poncing about the place trying to look as though they have something to do. It has to be said, I'm sure Labour would have done the same. I would've criticised them for it, so it's only fair I give out to the current Government who support this too. Regards, Wayne Forde
