Style Council
Sweeping views across the city
My sight comes to pause upon a space
Caught momentarily by the billboards
Advertising those in the mayoralty race
Some wear their hair up and some like it down
Some wear skirts and some wear pants
Whatever their choice of clothing
They all stand for one's own politcal stance
Vote for me or vote for us
As a democratic society we have a choice
Either to go to the polling booth
Or don’t - not bothered in your freedom to win or lose
All who are pasted upon the boards
Leave you no choice to be doubtful
An example to those who take time to stare
Be sure to vote for your preference of Style Council

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
