Notice served on union members

Union members and other Labour drones from Mayors downward, who think they are safely ensconced in their little fiefdoms, around the JafaLand isthmus would do well to pay attention.

Notice is served that your cushy number will be non-existent in three years time when a new super-city arrives. You will have to actually work for a living in a real workforce or join the soon to be terminated Labour MPs in the queues at WINZ.

The commission on governance opened for business yesterday and already the usual suspects are covering off on their 'indispensable' jobs. As an aside, I was once told that graveyards are full of 'indispensables'...

As expected, Mr eco-Taliban himself, Harvey wants more cities, not less, to futher the employ of more unionised Labour voting drones. By the way Bob, can I budget for my 12.5% rates rebate, you so eagerly bribed ratepayers with, in the upcoming rates cycle?

Mr Lee of the Auckland Robbery Company only will allow change if cost benefits can be proven. I feel current costs rising sharply, the shredder warming up and pencils being sharpened to hide any real figures.

New broom, Banks, continues sweeping through the region, suggesting that other incumbents would do well to consider their long term options elsewhere. He has the right persona to knock some heads together. Good move to the Town Hall.

New kid on the block, Mr Williams, north of the buckling bus lanes, is digging in for a fight - he is opposed to any merger that might cut North Shore grass, having only just got his patch.

Mr Ball, of the fringe in Franklin down south, is peeved at his pet funding sources possibly being forced in the future to pay for things northward.

Mr Brown of Manuakau, Mr Penrose of Papakura and Mrs Webster of Rodney are fence sitting, saying hello to the commissioners, but bugger all else.

One city, one office, one set of bylaws, properly funded from Central government. Take a big knife to the bureaucracy. Auckland is one city, just ask any person outside of the region or internationally.

Bring it on.
