Has the bad smell from the Māngere wastewater treatment plant returned?

Kendall Hutt Reporter from Manukau Courier

Hi neighbours. One Māngere resident has got in touch with us to say Māngere still has the bad smell from the Māngere wastewater treatment plant. A problem at the plant in February last year caused a sour milk-like smell to linger for two months. Has your nose detected any foul odour from the direction of the plant lately? Is the pong worse than normal? Let us know!

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.
