For f&^%$ sake, who does John Duthie think he is spouting off this unbelievable nonsense. The Cynic is absolutely astounded at the way these Auckland City Council officials pedal their poo.

To John Duthie, please answer the questions asked by the Marketplace. Do you honestly think that if you spout the same bullshit often enough it will become the truth.

George Carlin once said, Just think how dumb the average person is, then you realise half of them are dumber than that.

And to the Marketplace, it is good to see you starting to ask the hard questions.

Certainly not enjoying the number of dropped calls on the new Telecom XT network. I have not experienced call losses like this since the start of BellSouth. Coverage is worse both where I work and where I live.  I guess when it is this crap it can only improve. Heres hoping. Stand by for more details.
