Poll: What is New Zealand's most iconic identifier?

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

New Zealanders' identities are no longer just invested in items like jandals, the Buzzy Bee, or hokey pokey ice-cream.

Instead, according to an Auckland University of Technology study, Kiwis' modern identity is changing – and it's Māori culture, wine, oysters, flat whites, and the silver fern that's on the way in.

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.
