A now-removed sign that caused social-media uproar in two Hawke s Bay suburbs was deliberately provocative, says the Flaxmere man who erected it.
The sign on the corner of Flaxmere Ave and Wilson Rd named the website loveflaxmere.site and asked: Do we want Flaxmere to be like Maraenui? I wanted to provoke Flaxmere people to find out what s happening, David Pearse said.
