Something to go to in Auckland

Professor Raymond Miller will be giving a public lecture at Massey Albany next week on "Should we vote to retain MMP?":

Is MMP (Mixed Member Proportional representation) worth keeping? This presentation will weigh up the strengths and weaknesses of MMP and what can be done to improve it. We will also look at alternative systems being offered in this year's referendum, particularly the Supplementary Member system favoured by some of MMP's most vocal critics. What would be the likely outcome of any change for the make-up of future parliaments and governments?
When: 18:00 - 19:30, Wednesday 3 August
Where: Sir Neil Waters Lecture Theatres, SNW200, Massey Albany

They have limited seating and catering, so you need to RSVP to m.mannering@massey.ac.nz.
