Regarding the 'Tauranga City Finances” advertisements of August 13, 20 and 27.
May I request the shy ‘Concerned Citizens' who have anonymously paid for these election adverts to reveal their identities.
Attacking people – eg Mayor Crosby – and calling for ‘full disclosure' without naming themselves undermines democracy and fair play at election time. It also discredits their disputed claims.
Can they be brave enough to reveal who they are, or will they choose to remain under cover, perhaps to be likened by some readers to those wriggly little things found under damp rocks.
