We want to talk to you!
We're seeking both a family with teenage children, and a retired couple to be featured in the paper..we're running pieces featuring Kiwi families acting as our 'Budget testers'. We'll ask our volunteers a series of questions about their current situation: what they hope to get from Budget 2019, whether they would have supported a Capital Gains Tax, how fair they think NZ society is, etc, and then run the responses in the paper. Then, on Budget day, we will come back to them for their reaction to the details. They'd need to be happy to be photographed.If this is you or someone you know please get in touch either through Neighbourly or at virginia.fallon@stuff.co.nz
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
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)
.
