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)

Discovery of remains could answer one question but leave more

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

It’s been more than 900 days since Alvina Smith last saw her partner Shane Edwards - standing at the kitchen sink doing dishes.

Now, if human remains found near a Tokoroa creek turn out to be his, it’ll resolve at least one of her many questions.

Poll: Is a Santa parade a must for you?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

South Waikato councillors have deemed Santa a “must have”, and a core part of fostering community spirit in the district, with the man in red set to return despite the lean times.

South Waikato councillors have deemed Santa a “must have”, and a core part of fostering community spirit in the district, with the man in red set to return despite the lean times.

In December 2023, the South Waikato District Council had to cancel the town’s annual Christmas parade after a local Lions club, that traditionally organised and ran the parade, had to pull out due to a lack of manpower and escalating costs for traffic management.

Is a Santa parade a must for you? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

There are some really awful people around at the moment. This is what happened on Sunday.
We live in Hinemoa Street opposite the Waiwhetu Stream. At around 3.40 in the afternoon I was looking out my window and saw a car pull up and start to feed the geese and ducks out the window. Then The passenger an asian man jumped out and threw himself onto a goose. he picked it up and put it the boot of the car.
I immediately ran over and stood in front of his car to stop him moving I also called my husband to help. A lovely man was riding his bike and saw it and stopped to help me. The driver tried to drive into me but I didnt move. He tried telling us it was his pet. These are wild geese.

They had a cage in the boot and some wire all ready to catch the poor bird like they have done it before. My husband took the bird from the car and released it. I then moved out of the way and after lots of abuse from the driver they drove off threatening to come back and get more.
No one should be allowed to take these beautiful birds and certainly not like this. they are all starting to have wee babies at the moment the whole thing was so upsetting to me. Another neighbour further down the road also saw it all happen.
Please keep a look out for this car and if you see them by the stream go over and watch them lets all stop this happening.
