    THE ACTION KICKS OFF THIS SATURDAY NIGHT Sir Peter Leitch Club Newsletter RLWC 2017 24th October 2017 It’s 4 days until the Kiwis play # their first game of the 2017 RLWC 193 Back The Kiwis By Enjoying Lunch By David Kemeys Former Sunday Star-Times Editor, Former Editor-in-Chief Suburban Newspapers, Long Suffering Warriors Fan E ARE only days from the kick-off of the 2017 Rugby League World Cup, with Australia and England W– in what will be a hell of a match - doing the honours on Friday night. Of course the Kiwis take on Samoa on Saturday night at Mt Smart, and that one should be a good game too. League legend Olsen Filipaina is taking the ball out, which is pretty cool given he has represented the Kiwis and Samoa. The game I am looking forward to is the Kiwis v Tonga in Hamilton, because there is not going to be a lot of love lost when those two sides meet, after everything that has gone on. Before a ball is kicked I have the Kiwis lunch at the Ellerslie Events Centre to look forward to on Friday. When Pete asked if I would take it on with Gordon Gibbons and Tony Feasey, I foolishly said yes, not want- ing to let Pete down. But in truth Gordon has been amazing and we have an incredible line-up of Kiwis greats taking to the stage, and players with a long history of World Cup and test glory in attendance. I have been to several of Peter’s Kiwis lunches and enjoyed every one of them.

    June 1, 2015 To Senators Sherrod Brown, Jack Reed, Charles Schumer, Robert Menendez, Jon Tester, Jeff Merkley, Mark Warner, Elizabeth Warren, Heidi Heitkamp and Joe Donnelly: Thank you for opposing the deceptively named Financial Regulatory Improvement Act. While the proponents of this legislation claim to be concerned about the needs of small community banks, the bill itself reads more like a deregulatory wish list for big banks and other large financial players. It was deeply worrisome to see a majority of the Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs voting for this measure. But we were heartened by your opposition, and we wanted to let you know, and urge you to do everything you can to work for a safer, fairer, and more accountable financial system. Sincerely, Dorothy E.
