Aucklanders does not mean the millions of people in the other districts who will be caught up in this waste of time- Franklin, Rodney, Papakura, which when polled/commented, wanted nothing to do with it. We can vote who runs this "country" all except for 1/4 of it

They might want a supercity (we don't actually know, including you, because there's no data on it), but they probably don't want their elected representatives being over ridden by a small group of Rodney Hide's hand picked businessmen, which is exactly the structure this transitional authority has.
