John Banks has gone big on billboards in his campaign for mayor. So I thought I’d show some that I’d like to see…

    It is sad but we will end up with either the Nat fuckwit or the Labour fuckwit as the next Auckland mayor – rates will continue to go up along with the numbers of do nothing idiots employed in the council offices a pox on both of the fuckers…… in the immortal words of Russell “gimme back my rwates……gimme back my rwates !”

    John Banks: “I don’t want to sound racist, but if you took the Maori criminal out of the equation, New Zealand would be the safest country in the world”

    Does anyone have a link to the exact quote he gave the Dom Post a few years ago when he said if he ran on his real policies he’d never get any votes..?

    i dont know his name, thats how interested i am in this thing. i know banks isnt telling the truth, and brown can not be trusted. so, i go with the craig fella, what ever happens from that point forward i dont care i didnt vote for them.

    1. 10.1

      Er, you do know that the Craig fella is a right wing crackpot, Graeme? If you truly believe that the left/right thing is bogus, best you vote Jedi, Macgillicuddy or one of the other ‘fun’ candidates.

      1. 10.1.1

        yeah Graeme don’t ya know anyone who doesn’t vote for Brown is a right wing crackpot and anyone who doesn’t vote for Banks is a left wing crackpot – how dare you vote outside of the Nat or Lab mainstream.

        1. 10.1.1.1

          C….go away fool…you’re doing nothing more than performing an act of indecent exposure. everyone knows what you think, and nobody cares.

          1. 10.1.1.1.1

            “everyone knows what you think, and nobody cares.”

            ….yet still you continue to read it and feel the need to ejaculate your paff.

              i come her to read informed opinion, when it’s on offer. you don’t offer more than irritating schoolboy namecalling…

              if you would try to put forward opinions that have some intellectual basis, then i would be happy to hear them. have you got it in you? try it, it’s not that hard, really.

    Why cant Brown be trusted given the great work that he has led in the South Auckland Communities. I accept he is not perfect neither am I! Or have you been fooled/duped by the right wing smear campaign over the credit card bollocks.

    Just another small point,voting for someone who you know will do nothing means you have not voted to solve the problems.I accept that democracy also has its problems but Democracy will/ can only work if we rock up to elected people and hold them accountable for their actions policies/slogans. So if Brown gets in and dosn’t do things that build stronger communities I for one will be actively engaging him and I would hope someone like your self who obviously does care to some level would do the same.
    Come on Graham vote Brown .

    PS Browns not my cousin by the way either.

    1. 11.1

      Voted Brown. A vote for Craig will be a wasted vote. Brown has the best policies, a good track record, and a team of councillors & ward representatives supporting him. Banks would do too much damage and won’t listen to us. Brown has pledged to engage with the communities on an on-going basis.

    Banks, when campaigning as a Nat candidate, once told some voters in Whangarei that they needed to get a Labour voter off their street as he was reducing the value of the properties on it by $10,000.
    His policies for Auckland would (and have ) reflect this unchanged attitude to people.

    John Banks: “It’s fair enough that women are paid less than men”

    Interesting Jeremy. I will pass that on to a few interested parties. More detail though please – what context.

    John Banks: “I don’t have a council credit card…but I do have a ratepayer funded garage for my Bentley!”

    John Banks: “A city without people stumbling around drunk at 5am is not a world class city”

      Roger… could you point me to an article or such that quotes that? i hadn’t heard that one. would like to put it on my wall as a poster. could make it into a rallying call for newly legalised drinkers…
