Good morning, welcome to our daily General Debate.

Our evening General debate is called Backchat and will start at 6 pm.

On General debate, you are encouraged as a commenter to share your own stories, discuss other news, bring NEW news, catch up with friends or make new friends with other commenters.

To participate you’ll need to sign up for a Disqus account which is free, quick, and easy. All you need is an email address to register a username that suits you.

On posts that are not articles such as this one, you do not have to stay ‘on topic’ but you do still need to follow our commenting rules.

Please read our rules before you start commenting on The BFD to avoid a temporary or permanent ban.

To check if your ban might have been caused by Disqus, or to ask for a banning decision to be reviewed, email the voluntary helpdesk @ thebfd.co.nz with your Disqus username in the subject line. Please be respectful and do not make demands.
