Congratulations Councillors Guy and Grainger. The Boobs and Bikes was a success thanks largely to you two by deciding to use it for political gain by taking the moral high ground and keeping your voters happy.

I'm sure you would have been aware that the constant media attention generated by you could only work in favour of Steve Crow. You should have told your voters the best way to combat this man is to ignore him.

Personally I couldn't care less about the parade, I was just happy to see that bars and cafes full for a change.

I find it somewhat ironic that for a Council that does nothing in the way of events for the CBD, you actually made one successful by trying to stop it. Why don't you spend the same amount of time and energy creating an event for the CBD, perhaps a Christmas parade for the kids of Tauranga or are they too young to vote?

John Harvey, Amphora on The Strand.
