Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed šŸš—šŸš²šŸ‘Ÿ

While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.

We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? šŸŒ™šŸ¦‰

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.

This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.

We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?

šŸ“ŗ Hisense Replaces Panasonic — And Why It’s a Smart Upgrade

TV Signal Solutions Ltd. from TV Signal Solutions Ltd.

For years, Panasonic TV held a strong reputation in New Zealand homes for reliability, picture accuracy, and long-lasting performance. But as technology evolves, so do the brands leading the market. In recent years, Hisense has stepped forward as one of the strongest and most reliable TV manufacturers, offering impressive quality at a price point that makes sense for most households.

If you’ve recently replaced a Panasonic TV with a Hisense model, you’ve likely already noticed the difference — and in many ways, it’s an upgrade worth celebrating.


Why Hisense Has Become a Top Choice

Hisense has invested heavily in modern display technology, smart features, and build quality. The result is a TV lineup that consistently punches above its price range.

Key strengths of Hisense:

• Excellent picture quality with vibrant colours and strong contrast
• UHD 4K and QLED options that rival premium brands
• Smooth motion handling, great for sports and gaming
• Built‑in Smart TV features (VIDAA or Google TV) with fast, intuitive navigation
• Strong reliability backed by solid warranties
• Outstanding value for money


Hisense has essentially taken the space Panasonic once dominated — offering dependable TVs that perform well for everyday Kiwi households.
