So for what I think is the fourth time in a week, we hear from Tory Whanau.

This is a problem in itself because in the third interview, or possibly her fourth she has given, she reveals that originally she thought mayors flew below the radar.

So in her ongoing quest not to fly below the radar she also reveals, in her third or possibly fourth interview, that the advice she has been getting about all the trouble she has found herself in has come from her friends, many of whom worked for —are you ready for it— Jacinda Ardern.

Say. No. More.

The original interview was with Newstalk ZB. That was her "I sold my car" interview.

Her next interview was the Stuff interview, with Stuff claiming it was an exclusive despite the fact it wasn’t, and we knew it wasn’t because they asked about her car and they couldn’t have known about the car without the ZB interview, which as far as I can tell wasn’t an exclusive either because she does a fairly regular slot on ZB in Wellington.

The third interview was on Q&A where she confessed the sold car story was in fact made up, but taken out of context, despite the fact she had raised it herself.

Having done the TV interview she seems to have wandered off and done a podcast, which is where she raised the fact she had done the TV interview, but it hadn't gone so well.

The podcast, and the TV interview by the way, were at no times claimed to be exclusives.

But she did raise the bit where she seems to get her advice from Jacinda's mates.

Of course, much earlier than this she should have stopped digging and basically tried to get back down below the radar because I'm not sure if Jacinda's friends have told her this yet, but she is making a spectacular dick of herself and dragging the city's reputation down with her.

It is a very, very good lesson in why some people are simply not suited for public life and leadership.

Without being too unkind, it would appear she struggles to run her own life, far less a whole city's issues. She also has suspect skill in choosing her friends.

So, four interviews down we know more about Tory than anyone would have ever wanted.

I'm not sure even Stuff would now want a follow up and call it another exclusive, and if we have learned anything it's that it's not hard to see why the capital is in the state it is.

It's not hard to sympathise with her fellow councillors. It must be a nightmare.

If the central Government woke up today and decided Diane Calvert was right and an administrator might be a good idea, I don’t know many would be left objecting.
