Fish 0 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Sorry to interrupt the salacious rum talk Auckland Council, Mr Len Brown, has made a statement that they (Auckland Council) wont appeal the High Court decision saying the resource consents were wrong. What fascinates me about this statement is, all along, he was saying its nothing to do with Council, its all POAL, and Council can't control what they do - its all quote "out of his hands" - funny change of tune all of a sudden. And now for the clanger - Ports of Auckland have not said they wont appeal the decision. This looks like PR snow job - Ports of Auckland are the only body that can appeal the decision, but Mr Len Brown comes out and says Council wont appeal - distraction, smoke, mirrors... Note photo in article of work that is occurring at the moment extending wharfs into the harbour. PS, isn't Appletons the only rum worth drinking? http://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/news/article.cfm?c_id=3&objectid=11469860 Link to post Share on other sites

Fish 0 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Its funny you mention that Chloe, I do have a fondness for Havana Club, developed on a trip in Cuba (that also involved sailing). It didn't seem to matter how many people were in the round, the barman would always use a whole bottle regardless of the number of glasses... Link to post Share on other sites
