Torrential rain warnings for West Coast and the Alps

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

More than half a metre of rain is likely to fall on parts of the West Coast and in the Southern Alps from early Monday until Wednesday.

While only a fraction of that amount of rain is expected to make it across the main divide to the Canterbury Plains, people in eastern parts of the South Island are being advised to prepare for northwesterly winds up to severe-gale force in exposed places.

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?
