Meeting Report East Coast Election Whakatane Rotary Club Incorporated Meeting War Memorial Hall Last night 26/9/2023
Went like this I got there on time and a very ebullient Billy Clark of the Plains said repeatedly that he was the compere as such would not allow me to speak Told him chance would be a fine thing
He unwisely questioned if I was a Parliamentary candidate. I asked him to talk to any of the other candidates and they will tell him that I was at the other meet the Candidates meetings
He failed to do so
When I told him he needed to remember his place being in the War Memorial Hall he became stronger in his falsely held belief that I would not be speaking for the want of a better word and claimed the ability to have me removed from the hall by two security officials
Told him not to be so silly and not to attempt to interfere with the democratic process and embarrass the community
Compere Billy then fobbed it off to someone else who went away and talked to someone else who talked to someone else and eventually overdue sanity prevailed
The Police had been asked to attend before hand
Then the leading elderly male from the Whakatane Rotary Club in charge of the meeting claimed twice that he had been threatened So please go down to the Police station and inform them and ask them to lay charges TODAY
I had contacted the Whakatane Rotary Club Secretary Chris Bullen to say I was coming who said I was supposed to send an email to someone else. Wrong. The Whakatane Rotary Club Incorporated knew I was coming
Then we had to put up with Mayor Luca rabbiting on wasting more precious time and pretending he was authorised to dictate what we as candidates could and couldn’t say Again embarrassing Haven’t you heard of freedom of speech Victor, Your out of order prose reminded me of the letter we got from the sacked Race Relations Commissioner Moon Feng before and after the Tauranga By Election Mayor Victor instead go away and prepare a speech in relation to the outcome of the two employment contract matters involving the Chief Executive of the Whakatane District Council
The seven minutes per candidate could have been ten or more if properly organised “Piss up in a brewery” comes to mind
Again, when I looked at my prepared speech and letters of proof and compared those to the need to explain the abject failures in the Justice system
I decided upon traversing the example of the proceedings in a District and High Courthouse involving a lying Ministry of Justice warranted officer and a lying (likely employee) of the Labour Party Inc. endorsed by the then Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern Leader of the N Z Labour Party who also featured in the legal proceedings (not by me) herself Can’t get a fair hearing in a room full of liars
Next access to justice is provided the alternative to the Justice Police Courts Unaffordable Lawyers is the Alternative Disputes process
At a recent Alternative Disputes Resolution [ADR] conference in Wellington I as a long-time member attended The lawyers present were talking High Court hearing dates in 2025 Note not 2024 Not enough Judges
I also witnessed the potential President of the Arbitrators and Mediators Institute Incorporated Nicole Smith whose offices are in the Mount being asked to resign at the AGM of some 40 people including Kings Councils and lawyers from most of the leading law firms throughout New Zealand. Still awaiting her formal decision. Begs the question why does it take so long to decide whether or not as President she is going to resign? It is time the ruling Council of AMINZ Inc. tell the public and users of the institute of this now well overdue decision
The Labour mob were present but significantly down in numbers and almost no red t-shirts this time
However, the Secretary of the local branch was present and so she was asked if she was able to confirm that she had done the right thing and send off the documents of the branch to the Human Rights Commissioner to see if how they behave locally constitutes “Political Discrimination”
Documents were presented and made available to the attendees from the then Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, current Labour Party Leader Chris Hipkins , disgraced Hon Jan Tinetti Minister for Women and Education, Hon Andrew Little about my money being kept by the greedy N Z Labour Party etc![wink wink], Hon Grant Robertson about the well formally discussed establishment of the Ministry for Men and Boys, Warren Olsson Detective Inspector of the National Criminal Investigations Group of the New Zealand Police, Dominic Hayden Detective Senior Sargeant, Detective Inspector of the National Criminal Investigation Group, David Kirby of the National Criminal Investigation Group, Electoral Commission documents referring matters to N Z Police for investigations The named participants include Labours Hon Jan Tinetti, the New Zealand “Labour Party” and others
There were lots of very rude interjections and these rude people did not understand that although they might not want to hear what was being said by the candidates said the other members assembled did One incredibly and repeatedly rude person was repeatedly asked to leave, He refused. Billy again whilst at the outset was telling me he was able and willing to have me thrown out failed to control the mob
At the end and after being reminded of his place in the scheme of things Billy apologised to me. I am considering it Mr Clark! You should have apologised to me and the assembled members at the outset
Retiring Labour MP and oops now again candidate Tamati Coffey was specifically asked to tell the assembled throng who told him not to come out of Parliament and speak to his constituents who were calling for him to come out He refused to provide the truth. Labours Tamati Coffey was also asked if elected by one of the above-described attendees who would he represent. The Labour Party or his possible constituents? Again, he refused to tell the truth
I tried to raise the question of his false and misleading statements when he publicly stated he would not be running for Parliament because he had two children to look after and family comes first. Then all of a sudden, this family comes first public statement goes out the window and instantly he did a politician U turn and was somehow selected after there was this driving incident involving our M P and alcohol. Who else was at the selection meeting Tamati? Just you? The Secretary of the local branch from Hillcrest can tells us. Please do so Madame Secretary
I also asked Candidate Tamati to join me on nationwide talk back 0800 801080 for a debate. I await his commitment to this electorate
The subject of the Ohope Breach Fire Brigade running over and bringing about the death an innocent child on the Maraetotara Reserve in Ohapathy Beach was raised. There was no fire, no emergency and no right for them to be there Who gave the Fire Brigade permission to be there or who told them it was, ok? Who?
The result of the organisers allowing a non-East Coast electorate candidate to speak reduced the time allowed for the real candidates for the East Coast Electorate Plus he spoke too long each time and did not address the issue of the Act Parties name on the Electoral Commissions and other publicly available documents relating to breach of the Electoral Act
One of my policies I intended to announce was an addition to the Tenancy Agreement whereby departing tenants are required to provide a statement that they have made all reasonable attempts to stop the mail and couriered parcels from being sent to the landlords address Additionally the bond not to be released until this part of the end of tenancy documents is completed and lodged with the Tenancy services and signed as agreed by the landlord Why? Because I got arrested by the boys in blue (took 5 of them with a Police dog nearby) as a previous tenant informed them that I had a food blender belonging to them in my possession The Constabulary all left crestfallen and empty handed, tipped over my office and significantly, did not drop the charges to the last minute To the officer who forgot himself and got close up and personal I remind you of this Sergeant. I had been mopping the floor and when you did this my rear foot slipped on the wet floor For a brief moment, I had a vision of my forehead coming down on the bridge of your nose Fortunately for you Sergeant I was able to regain my balance, save your nose and the sight of your redness gushing rapidly down on your blue shirt
Then we talked about former Prime Minister Helen Clark’s role in repeated regions of N Z in which she dictated the list places in the Labour Party regions in which she did not reside That’s right “dictated”
I would like to thank the lady who came up to me and apologised for the embarrassing behaviour of the assembled throng Throng is a good word
Compere Clark you must stop showing your personal bias by allowing the Labour candidate to talk for more time than the rest. This is an ongoing problem at these events Please get a stop watch
We discussed the subject of women getting lighter prison sentences
We didn’t have time to talk about the long-time tax burden women have become in N Z. In short, they don’t pay their way. Beneficiaries or Bludgers are other words. A man is tax neutral from commencing work to the grave but a woman costs another $150,000 to be maintained by the taxpayer for the same period Hence there should as my Aussie mate says be a bloke’s tax and a sheila’s tax i.e. No GST but BST at 15% and SST at 20% to pay their arears They also have always cowered away from defending our shores. What is the word that best describes a special group of people who cower away from protecting our shores with life and limb? You were expected to turn up at our 7th Annual Mens and Boys Wellbeing Conference in Ohapathy Beach earlier this month but you failed to join in the discussion
Then we had question and answer from the floor
When It was my turn, I asked the floor/throng if any of them had the balls to ask Labours Tamati Coffee why he would not come out of Parliament and speak to his constituents when they called him to do so during the gathering outside Parliament. Winstone Peters and David Seymour did Far too many of the collection of N Z citizens present looked at the floor instead and they cowered away from asking one simple question the rest of NZ wants to know and now!
I also asked him who told him not to go to the steps of Parliament to meet with his constituents He continued to show a lack of respect for the meeting attendees and put his head down in shame You cannot trust anyone who won’t answer basic questions before the election Correct?
A copy of Labours disgraced M P for East Coast Kiri Allan’s Police file in relation to the Evan Bay driving matter was presented for all to see and read
None of the attendees wanted to read the Police report. They therefore remain ignorant which is their choice but speaks volumes of the mostly elderly attendees that attended last night
Police file number “IR-01-23-23215” “Dated 15 August 2023” The Police withheld some of the information claiming it wasn’t in the “public interest” for more of the details on the file Given Hon Kiri Allan was our M P and the Minister of Justice What do you think?
For the avoidance of doubt, I did have a quiet word with the senior male of the Ohope Fire Brigade and gave him a simple way of avoiding this public issue involving the unnecessary loss of a young child’s life on the Maraetotara Reserve in Ohope Beach being raised publicly. I have been asked to raise it by a concerned citizen and voter

The current Secretary of the N Z Labour Party finally showed her face at a public meeting but then she complained to me afterwards that I had pointed her out to the crowd If time had permitted, I would like to have asked her what she knew about the Labour Party Secretary being arrested by the Bay of Plenty Police. Additionally the Whakatane Branch Secretary of the New Zealand Labour Party Incorporated member and Whakatane Branch Secretary Peta Barker of Hillcrest failed to produce the requested letter from the branch in relation to the formalised request for all branch records to be supplied to the office of the Human Rights Commissioner to enable him to rule as to whether or not they were as a branch practicing Political discrimination
Also Local Labour Party senior person Anne Collins is still not speaking up in her own defence Would those people in the last subdivision on the right before the Port Ohapathy Golf Course remind your neighbour Ms Collins [formerly Anne Fraser] Labour M P for the East Cape she has via our resigning PM Jacinda Ardern been formally asked to stay well away from the list selection process till the Human Rights Commissioner has completed its investigation Come on Labour Party colleague Anne Collins you can use Facebook when you want to
