I did find the quote in the Newsroom article about seeing each other at church events to be pretty telling.

Just with this getting a bit out of hand, I am referring to the following quote in the below article: “Next time you attend church events … make sure to ask Jevon … how many unsolicited photos he takes to try blackmail them into silence.” newsroom.co.nz/2025/11/11/f...
Police watchdog scathing of former top cop Andrew Coster on McSkimming case
The IPCA found serious misconduct at the highest levels of police over how they responded to accusations of sexual offending by former Deputy Commissioner Jevon McSkimming.

I think Coster attends a different church (The Street) but both are very much in the vein of weird, exclusive churches like The Upper Room. Also one of the anonymous emails cited by Newsroom included a suggestion that Coster ask about McSkimming's behaviour at church events.

I think what has already been revealed raises serious questions about his judgement and ethics, especially given the profile of his former role, to the extent that a responsible employer would place him on leave from a senior leadership role. Whether there is more to come, I guess we will see.

They opened one this year near us. It's a disaster. The cabinet food is good too.

We used to go to fancy pants Westmere Butcher because the quality was better. Now we go there because it's cheaper (and the quality is still better).

Successive governments have had every opportunity to do something about the supermarkets and instead they just sit on their hands.
