Len Brown, eh?

[oldrider]

Voting was well down in the other election areas throughout the country as well but keep up the "hate Auckland" mentality if it makes you happy.

No ... hate that Auckland sets the low standard for the rest of the country ... only because they back Brown rather than hold him accountable!

But the quite high amount of votes for Palino suggest they don't back Brown. Also, the enquiry into Browns activities needs to be completed yet.

I don't know anything about the other Mayoral contestants and thought that any enquiries into Brown's duplicitous deceit had been glossed over!

I look forward to an honourable conclusion to this sordid chapter in Auckland's history.

If anything, the enquiry is widening and will dig into the details of Chuang getting the Auckland art gallery job with Brown's assistance.

I hope it doesn't get glossed over.

Me neither ... I believe Auckland (and ultimately New Zealand) deserves better than Brown!

[puddytat]

Nah, the rest of New Zealand is just sitting back and laughing.

Says a lot for and about Aucklanders doesn't it! ... Unfortunately Auckland is the majority in NZ and the rest of us are judged by them!

Fucking 'rs most of them, or so it appears!

Yep, and they deserve all they get. Let them putrefy in their own shit, if they can't be bothered to clean it up. Why are you so worked up over it?

We do. That's why the intelligent among us didn't vote for him (based on his ineptitude over the last term in office).
Sadly the alternative candidates were few.

Rest of us are judged by them? By whom? Nobody gives a fat rat's arse about our little pimple on the space rock we call a planet, in the larger context. A google news search for "Auckland Mayor" returned 4 pages of hits. Of those 4 pages, only three individual stories where from outside NZ. One from South China Morning news, that did an HI piece on Chuang, getting her roundly abused in the comments for being a tarty asian stereotype. One from CNN that they probably picked up from the wire and is simply more filler - no comment or analysis. One from the International Business Times Australia - doing a hatchet job on Chuang.

All of the rest are simply NZ media pretending that they do any investigative journalism, other than publishing press releases or repeating news bites that have been handed to them on a plate. When they go all out, they reprint something off a twitter feed, a facebook page, or a recollection of a past music teacher. That's what NZ gets judged on.

Laughing is good for people who have piles...

Today my first grandson turns sixteen.

Tomorrow I turn seventy four.

I had hoped that my generation had left this country a better place for our descendants!

Cunts like Len Brown spoil my dreams and I am now too old to rectify the problem but Aucklanders can still do something about it so I'm still trying while I can!

Grow some balls Auckland show some real leadership to this apathetic fucking country kick Browns arse like he really deserves!

Happy birthday for tomorrow oldrider.

I think the anti Len Brown brigade is doing their bit but there's much wider issues here. Don't get too wound up about the Auckland drama.

So .. naked photos were used to blackmail Bevan Chuang into going public ...

Now we know the morals of the people who went public with the story are worse than those of Len Brown ... should these people (The Nats) be allowed to run a city let alone a country?
