Oh god. Was there not a similar mean girls photo of JuCo, Maggie Barry, Ann Tolley and one I forget (but was not Hekia Parata)?

I think the most any gardener can hope is that some of their good, long term trees outlast them. The rest is pretty much froth, being realistic.

Sounds plausible.

Oh I am sure there are likely to be others, groomed to satisfy his sexual fantasies.

Yes. But this a National coalition. Nobody falls on their sword.

You could have ended that sentence without the last 5 words.

That is indeed the one I have seen named as the church of both Jevon Mcskimming and, funnily, Andrew Coster.

I think the new mayor is running away as fast as he can. The three deputy mayor structure looks to be a desperate attempt to restrict Chong. I am sure the mayor thought him a useful idiot that he could manage. Ha! Only the idiot part is correct.

I do the driving these days so we have overcome that difficulty.

Or, as I said to another councillor who publicly endorsed the mayor and his deputy - if you lie down with dogs, you get up with fleas.

Which is insulting to dogs but I knew he would understand.

I have always had to think carefully about giving directions . And not good in an emergency (turn right. No! I mean left.)
November 11, 2025 at 10:24 PM
I would say outrageous. Ludicrous.

BOTTOM RIGHT, dammit. Sorry Nelson Mandela for my dreadful mistake.
November 11, 2025 at 8:22 PM
Oh dear. I have never fully mastered left and right.

Prior to standing for New Conservatives, he stood for NZ First in the 2017 election. Although vaccinated, he joined the Parliamentary occupation, big Chantelle Baker fan, VFF, Groundswill (though he is an urbanite) etc etc.
And still people vote for him,

on which he was a longstanding councillor, in an attempt to overturn the appointment of the previous mayor, Neil Holdom, to head the new water authority for NPDC.

That is Murray Chong on the bottom left in a previous political poster he created. He is also Hobson's Pledge.
