[@Thebuilder-v7q]

It’s time for the mayor and the councillors to listen to the ratepayers, we don’t want cycle ways we want the waste to stop, they continue to waste money at a rate that is unsustainable, now they are going to raise the rates by16%, this is unacceptable and incompetence management, it’s time for the government to take action against them

[@johnburnett3942]

The treaty principles Bill has nothing to do with council. Fix the water pipes, fill in the pot holes, and clean the streets.

[@simon-ds1vp]

[@Malcom4850]

[@Ian-u5q]

Crazy, overconfident, narcissistic know it all. A 7 or 8. She’s totally deluded. Lucky to rank a 2 all year.

[@geoffwalker6739]

1/10 for performance is being extremely generous....

[@stuartsavage3654]

If this was a job interview would you hire her? The BS meter is off the charts.

[@Homemade1772]

Politics have nothing to do with the council - She's not honest, she's not listening to the rate payers - She has to go! What is the point of the Crown Observer, What the hell is going on? - She's so full of shit!

[@janetamplin7318]

Cooked books. And friend family. Employees

[@mobbarley7517]

Local government has nothing to do with politics?.... 😂😂😂

[@Malcom4850]

For God sake just resign and go..

[@Malcom4850]

Stop now on the spending. Fix the pipes and leave the rest for a while we cant afford it . Listen for a change..

[@InnocentPolarBear-yo1wg]

We don't want cycle ways at all... please stop waste to money

[@franklove9117]

Has no idea what the majority want She get a 0 She is a green clown

[@Jon-wf3wg]

Completely delusional. She thinks she is more popular when implementing Green party ideology rather than what Wellingtonians need, want and can afford. That just shows she is only listening to her Green groupies. Not only have the council failed to maintain the pipes but we are losing the likes of the Begonia house, which was gifted to Wellington by a generous family and all the council had to do was maintain it. Which they didn't. And now when they are supported to be putting all their effort into managing the budget out of a crisis (affordable rates are a distant dream), they are instead spending their time naval gazing on national politics which has nothing to do with the city council (Treaty bill)

[@rustyone7299]

She's basically a DEI mayor what else do you expect in Wellington 😊😊

[@joannamacfarlane5404]

A total embarrassing disgrace.

[@dossnone4554]

Amazing how she sees the world. Frightening that her view affects the lives of so many people.

[@aunutz5698]

how did this woman become mayor? Surely, all her voters can't be happy with her performance?

[@Pedromanus56]

Tory thought they named a bread after her, then realised it was called thick cut

[@barrygeary9362]

Not what the public want

[@KAHouli-p1x]

[@luckyM9963]

Please resign.

[@bobbuilder-h8b]

this woman has destroyed wellington.

[@jamesthomas6611]

Also a woke radio interviewer how useless

[@simon-ds1vp]

a woke interviewer ? please expand

[@Malcom4850]

Yes for sure he could do a lot better. He will never be a professional like Mike Hoskins

[@jbm8444]

Nick does a good job of highlighting how useless Tori is without her realizing , if he was too tough she would do a Jacinda and not turn up.

[@Sicklyconservative]

Disgraceful

[@janetamplin7318]

Why are counsellors. Having to vote at their job.on a personal view that has nothing to do with their job

[@graymcmic1419]

Delusional.

[@joannamacfarlane5404]

THAT IS PUTTING IT MILDLY!

[@TheAtheistRealist]

For her, reading the room means checking if the media responds favourably or not. My god!!

[@luckyM9963]

She could not even manage a fish and chip shop

[@KAHouli-p1x]

nick mills aint no sean plunket, i promised cycleways , but wellington is broke lucky I dont live in wellington

[@jasonpoihegatama1347]

likes drama

[@darcynicholas234]

Wellington city can only succeed in a global community with the support and cooperation of Porirua, Kapiti, Lower Hutt, Upper Hutt, and Wairarapa working on complimentary investment, sporting, and cultural and creative programmes that will help each other. The senior staff and councillors need to meet and develop a strategy together because the problem we are facing is a global change one. Collectively we are only the size of a small American city. Otherwise we are again loading the mayor and future mayors of Wellington with an unrealistic demand.

[@bronzie59]

Nick mills was too easy on her…what a terrible intv… having watched this I found myself getting angrier with each of her stupid replies

[@sherylchapman4773]

Go and take Walker with you.

[@ducker09]

She fails on only one count . Basically she /it's just not up to the job.😮

[@luckyM9963]

Ended on 7 or 8!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol hahahahaha i would say -20

[@MandeepSingh-fk2jr]

Auckland is ruined already and she yet cannot learn from the biggest example and is proud to go ahead and ruin welly 😂

[@Abuamina001]

This woman is incompetent and unprofessional at multiple levels. Can she even spell 'Wellington' without autocorrect ?

[@gibsonandpickett]

She will never get back in as major

[@murrayforsdyke5634]

She is a self serving narcissistic

[@tamaashford7196]

WHANAU FOR MAYOR ❤

[@Elawz]

Loser go catch a butterfly won’t ya

[@rossclarke211]

I like Tory but she is a not cut out to be a Mayor. So Wellingtonians, think long and hard about who we vote in to council at the next election.

[@caravanstuff2827]

Only the electors of wellington will decide if she's done a good job..not tragic loser's who make negative comments on social media post and KZbin.. there's to many councilors who have delusions of grandeur that want her job but can't get the votes who are doing every thing to undermine her at every turn..hope she gets back in to anger the haters even more!!.❤️🇳🇿

[@mobbarley7517]

Wellington is slowly being destroyed and you want someone who's proven to be completely incapable so you can make the haters angry?... perfect example of why some people shouldn't be allowed to vote.

[@dalet1001]

I am guessing a lot of the negative commentary are rate payers. It is impossible to say that she has done a good job, it is why a crown observer was installed. The reality is that the council has done significant damage to Wellington and wasted billions of dollars. There is very little to celebrate from her activities.
