    Wow, the comments there do nothing to change my opinion it’s a matter of when not if one of David Farrar’s resident trolls land him on the thick end of a successful defamation action.

    It was like a car crash - couldn't look away. Though it's nice that DPF now has colour-coding on comments based on how many likes or dislikes they get. Plus the ones that get hidden for too many dislikes, which are obviously the ones to read.

    I think I'll go have a shower, now...

    Whether this Government will fully play ball with Brown’s housing/City Rail Loop plans is another matter entirely, of course.

    Well, yes. But anyone in local government who goes in expecting the road to Wellington be paved with blank cheques is probably short on the pragamtism gene that marks successful mayors.

    You're right. Point taken. The matter of Banks' alleged fraud is being dealt with in a legal forum, so it isn't really necessary for it to be dealt with in the public forum for the moment.
