Poll: What do you think about sweary submissions to councils?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

A furore followed a city councillor’s obscenity-filled submission to his local authority, but it’s far from the only example.

Andrew Bydder’s profane submission to Waipā District Council came to light in June and his colleagues later ruled it was in breach of Hamilton City Council’s code of conduct.

Poll: How are fuel prices affecting you?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

We’re taking the bus or the train and trucking companies are getting slammed with price rises to simply stay on the road.

Welcome to the world of $3 a litre plus for fuel.

As the average price of 91 octane petrol across the country rose to $3.32/L at the start of the working week and politicians nervously eyed storage figures, Waikato households feeling the strain were offered little but hope.
