Spokesperson for Welington CC ride?

**Colapop** · 7th November 2007, 17:11

Anyone have any ideas who this person might be? Anyone have any constructive suggestions? I have put the feelers out but have had a minimal response as yet - ok, none...

Apparently Zukin, who has said he will be going, has done toastmasters etc...pm him

**Colapop** · 7th November 2007, 17:54

Hmm will do...

what about Grub? He has done a lot of research on this (and been quoted in the papers). He is also very articulate and would make a great spokespereson.

so might be happy to speak again in addition to Grub eh.

I can't be the spokesperson, I really am sorry, I'm passionate about this cause.

I can't go into the reasons except to say that it could pose a threat to my personal safety. Mock me if you like, but you won't know whats behind it.

Ok mate, fair enough, we'll repect your wishes.
Zapf may be happy to do it, and someone else may yet come to the fore.

Its not hard - you just need someone who's not too excitable but will still give the media their 'quote' / 'headline'....

However, said person would have to actually have a clue what the campaign is actually trying to do and no - removing all barriers now won't do it... A Q & A or Fact sheet for the media is always a good idea..

Cheers
