Petition to NZ Govt to declare Russia a terrorist state.

Marina from Hamilton Central

People, pls, help Ukraine. Pls, sign petition to NZ Govt to declare Russia a terrorist state. The war is still going and Russia is trying to kill Ukraine every day. My friend in Zaporozhye was injured by blast, he was at the hospital for a few months. My 2 cousins in Nikolaev already forgot what is safety and normal life. I am trying to help with money as much as I can but it's not enough. Pls, don't think that we are safe here and the war is too far away. Putin is insane, mad. Signing petition is not hard, it takes 1 min. Please, kiwis. Have a look videos on Youtube about Bucha, Mariupol and others. Nothing left from those beautiful places. My heart is crying for Ukraine.

Plan to keep cash alive

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Keeping cash alive in rural Waikato towns is a big problem, but help could be on the way.

The Reserve Bank is proposing banks keep a minimum ability for their customers to access cash - often a lifeline in small rural communities where banks have cut branches and opening hours.

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.

While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.

And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?

Phillips was shot dead on Te Anga Rd, west of Waitomo on September 8, after a near four-year manhunt for Phillips and his three children.
