Travel home for free on public transport this Friday

Ellen Comber from

For anyone thinking of indulging in the Christmas spirit this Friday, we have some good news – Auckland Transport buses and trains will be free from 4:00pm! The free services will include night buses and comes as Police warn of increased drink-driving on the Friday before Christmas. Keep your car keys in your pocket this Friday, 21 December and make it safely home for free to your loved ones. Thanks Auckland Transport!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
