Tory Destroyed
Wellington Mayor,Tory Whanau was hung out to dry by one of her favourite and most frequently visited Wellington restaurants just recently.
I cannot believe that a restaurant whose staff must know the Mayor from her frequency of visits and her profile would have treated her as a sacrificial meal and whose manager/owner was so willing to take the Mayor through the media wringer as he did.
Ok, so a bill was not paid by ANOTHER member of her twosome until the next day - on no prompting by the restaurant.
OK that the Mayor was tipsy/slightly drunk as the result of a kind of celebration of a successful major task for Wellington's benefit. Give her a lot of rope I would say and yes, just refrain from serving her and her friend any more alcohol but maybe offer to call her a cab.
It was shabby and un-neighbourly. Treating a young, hard working, vivacious woman the way this so called upmarket restaurant did.
Reminds me a little of the way another young woman of note was treated and who consequently suddenly resigned from NZ's top job. I hope Whanau stays the course not that I am a fan of some of the planks she stood for in her winning an election by a landside in trouncing dour, drab male opponents of little vision.
