Hard News: Moving right along?, in reply to BenWilson,
Well Russell (or whoever is in charge here) is welcome to edit posts as they see fit.
I'm out of here. Something unexpected has come up, so seems I get to escape the pollution and head somewhere sunny for a few days.

Legally prudent?!?! I'm laughing here. My statement was simply based on Bevan's account of what happened.
Two people have threatened to sue me for defamation in the past couple of years. Both are pathological liars who resort to these weak threats to shut people up. Mayor Brown is more than welcome to join the queue.

Not a crime, but in most workplaces this would be a sackable offense.

Look if Len was standing up at mayoral functions and wanking off I think we'd both agree he was unfit for the job. Nothing wrong having a wank, but lines need to be drawn.
So where does one draw the line? Everyone's opinion will differ, but to me, for the mayor to be wanking in the mayoral offices, while on the phone to someone who works on council-related issues, and as part of a mayoral campaign to pester that person into sex. . . well, it just seems a bit unacceptable.
This has nothing to do with church-goer style morality, it's just basic workplace standards.

LOL!
Who did I vote for?
It must have been Darth Vader, right?
Actually I am in China, so I don't think I was eligible to vote - though through my rates on Auckland property I still begrudgingly fund the Mayoral workplace bonk-fest.
But since you want to classify me, I'll help you out. The only party I vote for with any regularity are the Greens. I would prefer to vote for the anarchists, but that isn't practical. National and Labor can both piss off.

I'm not sure I ever indicated that I thought Bevan had been 'harmed'.
I'm mostly just amazed at the way Public Address readers seem interested in dissecting anything and everything other than the central issue - that Len Brown feels above being held to any kind of behavioral standards.
I've been noticing this trait (which often includes total detachment from reality) in many people who perceive themselves as 'awfully important'. It's starting to piss me off in a big way.

I'm not sure how civic process is trumped when a mayor who has behaved very poorly resigns and a new major is elected.
Also, has the mayor not been trumping civic process in swinging ratepayer funded jobs for his shag? I don't think this is part of his job description.

Blue cover art on a film called "The Sapphires". I'm appalled.

Well said. The spam + Chongqing hotpot combo is strangely delicious..

This place resembles an echo chamber at times.
