    Default Wellington's Mayoral Drunk

    https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/wel...previous-mayor


    Tipsy mayor a 'sad day for all of Wellington', says previous mayor


    As more witnesses to Wellington Mayor Tory Whanau’s behaviour on Friday night come forward, a former holder of her office says the city’s “number one citizen” needs to be constantly alert while the capital’s deputy steps up to defend her boss.

    “It’s a sad day for all of Wellington to get their newspaper today and see their number one citizen on the front page with an allegation as was reported,” said former three-term mayor Kerry Prendergast on Monday.

    The Post revealed on Monday that staff at Wellington restaurant The Old Quarter said Whanau and a friend came to the restaurant on Friday already tipsy and got progressively drunker. Whanau allegedly asked the waiter, “Do you know who I am” before she and her friend left without paying. The friend got in touch on Saturday and settled the bill.

    Whanau, who The Post recently ran a full profile on, has now admitted she was tipsy and that she accidentally left without paying, but denies she asked if the waiter knew who she was.

    Fine style - Wellingtonians .. you got a good one there

    This is the calibre of our politicians these days. Act like arrogant dickheads, then lie about it.....

    Accountable to no one.

    Is Tory Whanau Carmen reincarnated?

    Looks similar.

    To be expected from a Green politician.

    Arrogance and hypocrisy in equal measures.

    Showing her total lack of class and self control, overheard using lots of Fs etc etc

    Since The Post on Monday revealed the Friday incident, two punters at the restaurant have come forward.

    One of them confirmed to NewstalkZB that the mayor asked wait staff, “do you know who I am?”. This was earlier claimed by the waiter serving the pair.

    One man, who asked not to be identified, said he and his 13 and 15-year-old teenagers were sitting near Whanau and her friend and heard a lot of loud swearing: “Lots of words beginning with F.”

    Whanau?? - since they didn't seem to know, perhaps she was just telling them who she was.
