Poll: Time to ban Guy Fawkes?

Reporter The Hutt News

The Petone wharf was set alight twice over the weekend during Guy Fawkes celebrations. Do you think it's time we seriously considered banning fireworks to avoid these sorts of incidents?

The PM is concerned at the number of pop-up fireworks sellers on the streets, but is not considering banning sales.

Speed limits around NaeNae

Susan from Naenae

Hi Neighbors, Just a heads up, I have just received a $170 fine for driving at 50km on Rata Street Naenae on a SUNDAY Morning. I wrote to NZTA pointing out and sending in a photo of sign stating that it was 30km on school days between those hours, but they said that the whole of Rata Street and some surrounding streets are 30km 24/7 and have been for over a year. Did I miss this been advised by council? Always good to be informed. Merry Christmas to all
