Poll: Time to ban Guy Fawkes?

Matt Tso Reporter from Upper Hutt Leader

The Petone wharf was set alight twice over the weekend during Guy Fawkes celebrations. Do you think it's time we seriously considered banning fireworks to avoid these sorts of incidents?

The PM is concerned at the number of pop-up fireworks sellers on the streets, but is not considering banning sales.

Poll: Should you ask before planting tall shrubs/trees near your property line?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It may be fine now but in a few years trees can block out light or views for neighbours.

Do you think neighbours should ask before they go ahead and plant these?
