So Mike Baker is a candidate for Tauranga Mayor and Tauranga City Council - again.
For the past two years he has continually criticised, via letters to the papers, the performance of the current Tauranga City Council.
In the Weekend Sun, August 16, he again puts the boot into Mayor Crosby. Collectively, they may have not performed very well over the past three years. But when Mr Baker was a member of the previous council, did he perform any better? No, otherwise he would have been voted back in again. In many cases he sided with the Mayor's team for big, costly nice-to-have projects. Unfortunately for him, ratepayers have very long memories. So, if he intends to continue his election campaign in the same vitriolic vein, he will not win many friends let alone votes.
Being chairman of the Foodbank is a massive step up to becoming a councillor or Mayor.
Roger Bailey, Papamoa.

Nothing surprises me

Roger Bailey has constantly criticised me even though I believe that I have never met him. Rather than being so critical of other people's efforts why not stand up yourself as you obviously feel that you can do so much better. But remember that you only have one vote out of 11 Roger so you will need to get the support of at least 5 others in order to get what you want.
