Dear Editor, Can someone please get the PM Mark Brown to stop globetrotting and get down and do some hard work. Like trying to slow down and manage the cost-of-living increases and limit price increases for fuel, bread and power. Households are struggling. MPs wouldn’t know as they are highly paid.

By the way, leave the flag alone, it’s ok as it is, if you want to change it, then carry out a public referendum and let the people decide, not a bunch of politicians.

The Albert Henry free pardon releases him from the effect of a penalty and the consequence of his sentence but it does not quash and overturn the conviction, which remains after the pardon. What about a pardon for the Minister of Finance at the time and a senior official who were also convicted with Albert Henry.

Leave the past to the past and get on with the priorities of government.
