Rabbit awareness for Easter

Leah from Naenae

I'm sure most know about the buying of pet rabbits for Easter, it also unfortunately leads to a lot of rabbits being abandoned, I've heard of it happening here not anywhere near as much as in other countries but still, since it's getting around that time of year I figured it can't hurt to make a post here to at least have awareness that there could be pet rabbits let go, they can't survive outside so if you see any around try and catch them or phone the SPCA or something

I will say they're pretty good escape artists from my own experience so not every rabbit roaming around is an abandoned pet, might have just escaped from the hutch

But yeah not sure what the response will be to this post but I had to at least say something especially as I've also noticed that a lot more people have dogs in my area, so please keep an eye out for any rabbits

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?

Public Transport fares face 70% increase..

Mike from Alicetown

Wellington region users says increases to public transport fares of more than 70 percent would be "ludicrous", and would lead to them working from home more often, or taking the car rather than the bus.
