Palmers rip off

Tony from Foxton

We purchased a pond pump from Palmers for $500
It lasted 8 months it shocked me and killed my fish.
I took it back in October last year, I finally got it back today and they said I bent the power cord and they wouldn’t warranty it.
The pump lies flat on the bottom of the pond.
When I got it back there was a bend in the cord that wasn’t there when I sent it in. Today I got an electrician to look at it, he said it looks like someone bent it with pliers

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
