Poll: Should Claudelands Events Centre be sold?

Matt Bowen Reporter from Waikato Times

Morning neighbours,

A contender for Hamilton's mayoralty has advocated selling the city's Claudelands Events Centre if a suitable buyer is found.

Angela O'Leary​ said selling the showpiece venue would improve the city council's bottom line, with Claudelands notching up yearly operating deficits.

But others disagree.

What do you think should happen to Claudelands?

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)
.

What do you think about this car park's condition?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A Tokoroa local says the car park at Tokoroa Hospital is a “third world” shambles and is not a good look for the town’s public medical centre.

Olaf Langhenkel said the state of the car park, which is riddled with potholes and past attempts at repair, had been deteriorating for around five years and nothing had been done about it.
