Fed up with tiny red council rubbish bins

Brian from Flagstaff

My household has been pushed to get all our rubbish into one small red bin while the recycling one is rarely more than half full. Whatever posessed the council to use such a small size? We now hear we will be "invited" to buy bigger ones. (Disgusted council lands us with another stealth tax BTW.) Whats wrong with the recycling bin becoming the rubbish one and the small red one becoming recycling??

Poll: Would you commute by public transport if it was free?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.

Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.

So, neighbours, if public transport had the perk of being free, would it be your main way to commute?

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.

Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
