Is your group, organisation or club looking for a speaker?

Angela O'Leary - Hamilton City Councillor from Councillor Angela O'Leary - Hamilton City Council

ATTENTION GROUPS, ORGANISATIONS AND CLUBS! I'm on a mission and I need your help!
Our lives are affected every day by decisions made by your city's Mayor and Councillors - people elected every 3 years to represent you. In spite of this, voter turnout for the Hamilton Council elections has been steadily declining. And next year, a new crop of candidates will put their names forward.

I have put together a fun and informative talk where I share insights into why people don't vote and what can be done about it. I will come to you. Send me a message or contact me at: angela.oleary@council.hcc.govt.nz or 027 808 7701

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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.

Do you have a most-hated intersection in Waikato?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

New data has pinpointed Hamilton’s most dangerous intersections, including a high risk Cobham Drive turn off that a resident and driving experts believe should be shut for good.

While that turn into Grey St has resulted in the highest number of injuries, most crashes occurred at the bustling intersection of Te Rapa Straight and Wairere Drive.

Do you have a most-hated intersection in Waikato? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
