Street sign advertising too distracting?

Jared Nicoll Reporter from Kapi-Mana News

Have you ever noticed the advertising around street signs in Porirua?
The council has a deal with Nu-Lite Illuminated Signs that gives them the exclusive right to erect illuminated signs with street names.
But has anyone been distracted by the advertising around street name signs? Maybe ended up somewhere you weren't intending?
We'd love to hear your stories.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
