An apology to Ross Taylor from Mike Hesson and David White would put the matter to bed...

Is the Ross Taylor cricket captain sacking controversy supposed to be over with a John Parker apology to Blackcaps coach Mike Hesson? Yeah right! I believe it will be all over rover when Mike Hesson and CEO David White apologises to Ross Taylor for lying. Hesson claimed, with the support of White, that he had offered Ross Taylor the test captaincy after relieving him (sacking) of the Twenty 20 and ODI roles. Ross Taylor poured cold water on this claim. It was actually freezing water in this instance. Ross Taylor wants an apology from Mike Hesson and David White. This would put the matter to bed!

John key said any amalgamation in the Wellington region will have to be led by Wellington City. What does that mean Mr key? The National government will force amalgamation? The Hutt Valley doesn't want to be part of any Wellington Super City, or any other amalgamation to do with Wellington City. What National forces together, Labour/Greens can force apart!

One Hutt Valley !!!
