      <title>Why I voted against Mayor Prendergast for Local Government New Zealand</title>
      <link>http://pepptalknz.blogspot.com/2008/05/why-i-voted-against-mayor-prendergast.html</link>
      <description>The position of president of Local Government New Zealand is too important to be held by a peak oil denier. That is why I would not support Mayor Prendergast in her bid for the position. Peak oil is the most serious issue that we face on a local and global level. I made that clear while the Dompost reporter was recording proceedings. Furthermore, the mayor has shown nothing of the balancing qualities needed in a democratic role. Democracy is much bigger than one person getting their way. Majority rule is always to be balanced with minority protection and sharing the benefits.Bryan Pepperell Wellington City Councillor for Southern</description>
