Poll: Auckland waterfront stadium - yay or nay?

Emelyn McHardy Reporter from Franklin County News

Hey Neighbours,
On Monday Auckland mayor Phil Goff announced that Aucklanders might have to wait 20 years for a new waterfront stadium.

Some have been against the idea, Eden Park chief executive Nick Sautner said Auckland already had "a stadium for all" in Eden Park.

Redeveloping Eden Park up to international standards was also found to be a chaper alternative, that would cost $700 million less than a new waterfront stadium.

Do you think Auckland needs a new waterfront stadium?
Or do you think Eden Park provides a good 'one stop shop'?
Are you glad the new stadium idea seems to be pushed back?
Do you even think we need to upgrade our stadiums/ make stadiums of an international level?

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
