Our Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment, a Harry Potter character?
Sally McIntyre of Gore thinks so, and tells Southland through her letter to the editor that Jan Wright's 'wizardry' has been prevented from wreaking its havoc, thanks to the commonsense approach of Environment Southland chief executive Ciaran Keogh. The CE has declined the commissioners invitation for the regional council to express its concerns about lignite mining to the Government and Mrs McIntyre applauds him for this. She also strops-up Chairman Timms and 'a number of ES councillors' for their over-emphasis on environmental issues, painting them 'green' and 'supposed experts who pretend to have solutions'.
Quite a morning for the councilors of Environment Southland - we are, it seems, Draconian greenies, hell bent on destroying Southland's economy.
The Harry Potter reference is an interesting one though - must dust off my wand and invisibility cloak and get out there amongst the muggles - they're as restless as house-elves!

Nice self-portrait,Rg.
Or is it how you took the news nearly two thirds of National and Green supporters polled favour acceptance of an invitation to join in coalition - if it was proffered by National?
Didn't believe that crooked 'data' , Fred. Not for a moment.
And thanks. It's the look I've worked on for some time now. I have a wand. Will post photo. And a stave, though you may be disbelieving.
