Around 60 seniors gathered outside Parliament, chanting "Gold Card, Gold Card" and calling on passers-by to, "join us - you'll need it one day". Grey Power members have presented a petition against changes to the SuperGold Card scheme to NZ First leader Winston Peters. We don't want to lose the Gold Card, we need our Gold Card. Former Tauranga Grey Power president Christina Humphreys started the petition, which had been signed by about 4000 people, six weeks ago. Most of what we do as Grey Power is really for the next generations."
