Poll: Yes or no to the robots?
Imagine walking through Hamilton’s Garden Place and being followed by a futuristic - and slightly Dalek-like - robot the size of a dining table, rolling beside you, recording everything you do, and ready to speak up if it spots trouble.
It might sound like a sci-fi movie, but Hamilton City Councillor Ewan Wilson says it’s worth exploring as the city grapples with increasing drug use and antisocial behaviour in the CBD. “It’s an option,” he says. “Maybe it’s a discussion that we should have.”

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
