	Description:		A council in the northern Hawke's Bay is pushing to ban gang and other insignia from headstones. The Wairoa District Council will put out the proposed change to the cemetery's bylaw, for public consultation. Three existing gang-branded headstones are considered huge and offensive. Mayor Craig Little told Mike Hosking there may be push-back from the gangs. “But funny enough, I met with the gangs about three years ago and I said look, there’s an issue here, somehow you need to pass the goalie on this one and we need to sort it out.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
