Yesterday I posted onthe NBR today it was removed I have therefore placed a further reply on thier site as follows
Corruption will flourish when good men stand by and do nothing
The citizens of NZ have to wake up as to how dangerous our defamation law is.
It appears that it is enough for the party alleging defamation to say hey what she said is defamatory without proving that what was said was untrue and should have been known by the person making the statement to be untrue.
It appears that tactics rather than evidence wins defamation cases. It is hard to believe that my truth was not accepted even though I had documentary evidence and Mr Wells was believed without corroboration.
Both transparency International and united nations encourage people to speak out against corruption. One definition of corruption is the use of public office for private gain. I identified such a situation and asked questions of council and government and for that was accused of defamation.
Apparently it is Ok for someone to have a business plan and write the legislation to facilitate it and it is OK for someone to run a private SPCA from council premises using council staff and facilities and collect donations using a logo which is identical to that on the building and bank it into an account only they control.
Fortunately the donations went to good use they paid for the court proceedings which saw $57,000 awarded to Mr Wells .
John Davies and Marianne Thompson made false claims in their CV . Mr Wells said a trust existed when it has been proved that didn’t but the judge excused it saying Mr. wells got ahead of himself. It is very hard to determine who will be condoned and who will be prosecuted .
I recommend that if any one sees anything questionable just close your eyes and keep walking you cannot afford to question anything .
Corruption will flourish when good men stand by and do nothing. But if you do do something .. even as simple as raise questions – your life will surely change dramatically.
