Poll: Do you support the 70,000 primary and secondary teachers going on strike?

The strike is the first time all teachers in the compulsory schooling sector have taken strike action simultaneously.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

75.8% Yes

22.8% No
