I don’t live in Wellington, but if I did Ray would get my vote.

Party candidates are completely compromised and give lip service to constituents. Independent candidates are the way of the future and the most effective method of keeping central government from screwing over local government and its ratepayers. From Local Water Done Well to District plan demands, it's time to tell parliment to butt out of how locals want their commu cities to be run.

Tell your kids, don’t talk about people behind their backs. Don’t put anything on the internet you don’t want the whole world to see. Ray has no one to blame except himself. Hopefully the storm blows over and lessons are learned.

Is she related to the National cabinet minister of the same name in the 80s?

She is his daughter. Funny I had always believed her father was a principled fellow but perhaps not????? She has apparently set her cap at a high position in WCC with Andrew Little but wouldn't Tory also want this position?

That's so annoying! I wasn't able to change the main video, but I've added it to the bottom of the article. Thanks for letting me know, Robin - I've gifted you a free one-month subscription as a small token of appreciation.
