And the Herald unabashedly gives Banks a campaign platform in a story about outgoing Council CEOs' golden handshakes - as if Mayors get to decide that on their own.
No wonder the public don't know who does what. And I'd expect a strong formal complaint about biased publication during an election period.
[Banks:] "Whereas the CEO of Manukau City has received a huge exit package, which has been kept secret as we can clearly understand it would.
"Ask Len Brown to tell you how much some of the poorest people in New Zealand have had to pay the CEO in golden handshake and golden exit packages."
Banks said any money paid in packages wouldn't be recouped.
"It's too late. It's gone. The remuneration packages will be made public. Like I've just done with my CEO.
"Secrecy surrounding this speaks volumes about how Len Brown wastes ratepayer cash."
The Herald on Sunday revealed in June that Manukau chief executive Leigh Auton was in line for a massive payout. The council decided to keep details confidential. Auton said: "The figure I've heard being quoted is absolutely incorrect."

Are you saying they are no longer together?

when you're encouraging people to vote for your partner, a little full disclosure would be in order.
McCarten did omit that highly relevant fact - and compounds it by saying (without a hint of irony) for the same ward:
"It would be a victory for ‘name over substance’ if C&R’s Christine Fletcher beat one of them because she married into the family"
Not up to the standards I'd expect of the man. Also ignores another competing candidate with a strong track record in the ward.

Didn't Density pull out of politics?
