Can't stand the guy and now the supercity has stopped the popular Coatesville market. It happened once a month and now some big wallet has complained about the parking. It's the country idiot where else do you expect people to park but on the side of the road. Not to mention the harrasment of stall holders about licences the first market after the new council came in. We're all doomed to beaucratic PC BS

The only road-block Len faces is lack of support from the government. I can guarantee that if John Banks got the super mayor job, as everybody knows John Key and National wanted, he would not have faced any of the opposition from Key that Len has.

the Super Mayor job was always going to be hard. Brown made promises he NEW he could never fulfill and is a failure already. One of the easiest promises, free entry to council pools, has not been done so how on earth can he get any hard jobs started??
