Some kinda hilarious quotes from the owner here.

I'm not even sure what they're doing. I believe they're protesting against light rail or something."

Gazley said the dealership supported sustainable transport options.

"Maybe they should inspect some of the vehicles that we have, because the majority of them are hybrid and electric vehicles."

And then...

"And then I believe they tried to glue their hands to the footpath, but the glue didn't set in time and they were arrested by the police."

Maybe they'll go after a Tesla dealership next?

Sure, but Renters United isn't active in Christchurch. I'm not aware of any local events they're promoting. As far as I'm aware, nobody is even attending council meetings or community discussions that are often held at churches.

I had a quick look through their website, they want to implement rent control as a way of controlling the housing crisis.

Because the best way to increase the supply of something is to limit the price of it.

They focus on renters rights but I wish they'd do more about having a proper housing market. You know, complete with competition and stuff like that.
