Suspicious fire on Māngere Mountain
A fire which tore through 1.6 hectares of scrub on the Māngere Mountain is being treated as suspicious. The blaze took a hold of a large area of "knee-high" grass near the mountain's crater and rim area about 2.30am on Wednesday. The slow moving fire, which also burnt some pōhutukawa trees, could be smelt by residents across the region, including as far north as Albany. Police are making inquiries.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
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)
.
