Is it time to ban the private sale of fireworks in favour of public displays only? Or is Guy Fawkes just a bit of flammable fun?

Would you like to see tighter restrictions on fireworks or are you a sparkler fiend who sees no problem with celebrating safely at home?

New Zealanders are embracing the reusable bag ahead of a plastic bag ban, but they could be carrying something else around – bacteria.

ACT leader David Seymour says 20 people could die each year using reusable bags.

"It's coming up to summer and people will be in a hot car with their chicken in a canvas bag ... and suddenly, you've got a real serious case for poor food hygiene."

Food safety expert Steve Flint said it was a valid concern. Read more here

Hi everyone; someone has just asked me for a few petition forms, so instead of wrapping it up now, I have decided to run it till the end of November.
All those who have petitions on the go, if you have had enough, let me know and I will arrange collection, if you want a final burst that fine.
With nearly 500 signing the online petition, and from what I can gather more than twice that signing the paper copy, we have a strong case to take to Liardet Street in getting them to ensure that the mural retains its place.
