Sauce for the Goose

"...The Dominion Post was granted permission by the court to photograph all witnesses in the case, including the spy car driver.

Yet another example of council "officials" being exempt the standards applied to us lesser mortals. Something that needs to be corrected by hemp rope, as the ballot box does zero.

They will ping you as pull over, double park briefly and wait for someone, who has indicated their intentions, to vacate a space. Complete and utter bastards. They should publish the snivelling little prick's address as well.

Too bloody right. The last assholes who claimed to be "only following orders" were hanged at Spandau prison.
