Poll: What are your thoughts on buying a meth-house?

Briar Hubbard Reporter from Franklin County News

New Zealand has gone into a frenzy over the P problem, when in reality many supposedly meth-contaminated houses pose no risk to human health if you simply scrub down the walls with a decent detergent.

That's the view - some would say surprisingly - of the New Zealand Drug Foundation, and Massey University environmental chemistry expert Nick Kim.

With most Kiwi home buyers now getting properties meth tested and walking away from the deal if the result comes up positive, it begs the question whether it's possible to pick up a bargain if you're prepared to don rubber gloves and invest some elbow grease.

Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟

While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.

We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
