Poll: Should Southland and Gore District Councils merge?
Former Southland Federated Farmers president Allan Baird has called on the Southland District Council to consider a merger with Gore District Council.
While the division of the district into five wards was a reasonable approach in the short-term, Baird said it was an "anomaly" that not all of the Southland Province was represented.
Having 12 councillors responsible for the whole of the Southland province would be more appropriate, Baird said.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
