1142371 2010-10-07 05:26:00 I wouldn't say chasing votes, --going by the article (if you can) he's just a concerned parent, and its a shame his son got caught up in it all, being the Auckland City Mayor wouldn't exactly help.

As he stated "binge drinking was wrong". To many younger people think it's fun to get plastered to the point of death.

Nothing wrong with drinking, I think most of us have been a bit to happy:waughh: at one time or another, but when it gets to a point of self poisoning, thats a bit over the top.

1142373 2010-10-07 05:33:00 Possibly. Don't know dont really care. sounds a bit unusual but then i've seen other people do the same The Error Guy (14052)
1142374 2010-10-07 06:05:00 Yep. I'm sure he arranged to be speaking at the inquest just before the voting closed and after the time it was best to post votes so they get there on time. NOT! Snorkbox (15764)
1142375 2010-10-07 06:26:00 Voting is almost finished. To say he did for votes makes me sick, if I was him I would sue their defamation asses for every cent prefect (6291)

1142377 2010-10-07 07:31:00 As much as I dislike the guy, I think he was there today because he had a personal connection with the family (if only as a parent of a child at the same school).

At least his presence may have taken some of the media heat off the family...

As far as 'chasing votes' is concerned: too little, too late.

Postal voting closed yesterday and you have to visit a polling place if you still want to vote - until Saturday, I think... Anyone that was going to vote already has.

1142378 2010-10-07 07:35:00 As he wasn't there at the time I can't understand what he was in the witness box for except for a bit of electioneering. mikebartnz (21)
