My highlight from last night's smaller but perfectly formed venue, courtesy dj Peter McLennan and Jackson's hospitality:
For bonus points, imagine the latest Muppets movie on screen in background.

Hard News: Not good enough, Eden Park, in reply to Angus Robertson,
this sort of behaviour is practically enabled as policy
So you are incapable of reading and responding about the venue's terms and conditions being discussed here? How about you go do something you're better suited to. Finger-painting, perhaps.

Apparently MBIE was cc-ed on the letter. Standard govt practice would have got it to both his and the Building Minister's attention. Just like your Council should have had better internal risk management/escalation in place.

Council's planning committee chair confirms who decided not to tell Councillors.
Ms Wells says the council chief executive Tony Marryatt had seen the letter, but had failed to share it with her committee, which oversees the consenting process.
"Management team has advised us it was an internal management matter," she says. "Because they were dealing with things they didn't see the need to inform the governance group.
"We've had a free and frank conversation about what the governing body needs to see."
Christchurch mayor Bob Parker has also admitted finding out about the letter yesterday, telling Radio New Zealand that it "would have been nice to have known".
Nice? I'd fire the prick.

I'm also unsure about Parker after watching him on Campbell Live tonight. Not taking his word about Council's consenting fitness if the independent accreditation agency doesn't. But Brownlee's behaviour is always worthy of suspicion.
