Why are we linked to Te Puke's Neighbourly?
Just asking, not complaining. It's nice to have a much wider audience (James Parlane will be ecstatic) But I am mystified as to why Te Puke, Lake Rotoma and Kawerau etc., are now connected to the Waipa/Otorohanga/Waitomo Neighbourly page.
When I asked the people at Neighbourly HQ if I could post a notice about Otorohanga's Steamfest last year on pages around the Central North Island I was told it was not permitted.. Now we are getting all sorts of advertising stuff from all over the place.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
