Vote in our poll and share below whether this influences how you're gifting nowadays.

What do you make of these comments?
Hamilton councillor Andrew Bydder believes it’s ‘absolutely acceptable’ for his constituents to hurl profanity laden abuse at him in order to get him to do his job.
And he contended lowering debate among the city’s leaders around the council table to a similar prison-yard level could ‘improve governance’.
The comments come after an expletive laden submission Bydder sent to neighbouring Waipā District Council over constructing a third bridge in Cambridge.
