Len Brown has been doing a good job as Mayor. However he had already been caught out over Manukau council expenses only a few years ago at the urging of the same right-wing critics, so what sort of fool goes and behaves like this again? And why weren't his senior staff keeping a close eye on him?
Conflicts of interest are about perception as much as degree, so the amounts involved aren't that relevant. It is dodgy to accept any gifts from SkyCity when you're involved on behalf of the public in decisions about the future of their business.
