Andrea Compton was elected in Takapū/northern. She started her campaign as part of them. But she was one of them that distanced themselves after Chungs comments about Whanau.

I wonder if the distancing might have favoured her? But not sure, given how the ward can vote

Act knew there would be enough white supremacists to get rid of a lot of Māori wards and they were right.

Does Marlborough and other regions realise by removing the Māori wards it could or might affect where people live and holiday🤔

Cover of the classic children's book Frog And Toad Are Friends.

Drawing of Toad, a brown toad, sitting on a bench, dressed in a green jacket and slacks. He is reading a book to his friend Frog, a green frog dressed in a brown jacket and slacks. They are surrounded by green plants and mushrooms. There is a silver Caldecott Medal in the corner.

Text has been altered from original. It reads

To be honest Ray Chung should be on a behavioural bond.
And no 3 strikes either.
He has gone way past those already.

I have to agree.
Luxon will have a hmmmm moment this weekend and by the time the gears click in his head, it will be Tuesday 🤭

Andrew will spend more time babysitting those idiots than running the council.

Tony from Welly @tonywelly.bsky.social · 4h

So that means that Luxon will keep his interventional team attached to the Wellington City council🙄

We can also dish out some bullshit.
I hate councillors who think they are above everyone else.

We all work together as a team to make this city successful.
Not as individuals.

Its upsetting that there wasn't a way to legally get his nomination pulled for mayor and councilor after his behaviour towards Mayor Tory Whanau became apparent.
It's not acceptable that he could still run.
