A109 Light Utility Helicopter flight with mayor Gisborne City from the air in November 2023.

A109 Light Utility Helicopter flight with mayor Gisborne City from the air in November 2023.

Re: Kiri’s Journey, GH January 27 story.

The terrifying part of Ms Allan’s “journey” is that at the time of her mishap she was #10 on the greasy pole.

Her pattern of behaviour is consistent with the acts of entitlement demonstrated by other elected officials whose grasping, bullying, shoplifting, benefit and electoral fraud, and “loss of focus”, have purged the mana of all involved and made a laughing stock of the office they held.

Don’t hang about madam, your Uukaipoo’s mana is sacrosanct, yours is expunged.

Waiho te tuutuuaa ki te tuutuuaa. Ka Taka te Kapa.
