Poll: Yes or no to the robots?
Imagine walking through Hamilton’s Garden Place and being followed by a futuristic - and slightly Dalek-like - robot the size of a dining table, rolling beside you, recording everything you do, and ready to speak up if it spots trouble.
It might sound like a sci-fi movie, but Hamilton City Councillor Ewan Wilson says it’s worth exploring as the city grapples with increasing drug use and antisocial behaviour in the CBD. “It’s an option,” he says. “Maybe it’s a discussion that we should have.”

From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort
Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.
He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
