NZ councils and social media. 🤔🤔🤔
My local council uses Facebook to disseminate a lot of information. For instance, it screens council meetings live on the platform.
Given that Facebook is based offshore and pays no tax in AoNZ should councils be using it?
Shouldn't all council information come from the council's own website? Why do we have to search multiple platforms to find information that should just be in one place?

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?
Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?
