Transparency New Zealand

It is exactly 12 years ago today  when  I met Penny , I remember the date well , because it  was her birthday.   We  are the most unlikely  mates, I am  the ex cop  and she  the activist . In the  spring bock tour  we were  on opposite sides of the fence , she had an opinion but my uniform  prevented me from having one.

Since leaving the  Police and Becoming a  Private investigator   I  stumbled  onto corruption.    I thought it would be a simple task to bring the  lack of existence of a Law enforcement body to the notice of the government,  but    I was wrong and encountered   a cover up of   gigantic and unbelievable proportion  that has  apparently called for a 12 year character assassination of me  which   continues to this day .  Heaven forbid that some one should believe me or look at the evidence, then some  very prominent people would be taking up beds in our   prisons .

With Penny’s activism and union  background   and my police prosecution  and investigative  Background we    formed a very close relationship  of mutual support trust and respect.

Penny and I  are  on the same page    with corruption,  we do not  always agree on  everything  but the good part is   that when we   talk about  our different  views  we often  find that   there is  yet  another angle  ,one neither of us anticipated.

I have learned heaps  from Penny , having been in  Government service  you come out rather  blinkered  and  Penny  helped me see beyond the things that public service blind you to .

In return  helped Penny  with my prosecution skills ,I remember her  coming to me because she had been thrown out of the town hall and arrested for trespass  , I said whoa  that is a public place you can’t be trespassed from a public place , there is specific legislation  with regards to removal from council meetings    and so Penny    learned  from me  and    won some 22  cases of trespass .

We  took on projects  individually and worked on others together  one day we ended up in  Rodney Hide’s office   and  together  learned  from him of the   magic of the privacy act. So obvious  once you know .

It is hard to believe that when we met in 2006   that the internet was still  pretty much  in its infancy , all sorts of things were being loaded on line , like the companies register  and those who had  been hiding  their business connections  in the  files of the companies office  suddenly found their  business  exposed .  we unraveled the committee for auckland and saw how   the  tail was wagging the dog,  this was he start of the super city   and it was all about $$$$.

I started to blog and  we  soon found   that transparency was not  welcome . What it did however  was to bring people together  and  we built a network   of people  who needed help on the way, a network of mutual support  and information sharing .

Penny rang me one day about the Tamaki  redevelopment company  limited  and together  we   worked through the  quagmire of trading names, domain names  and   fake names  which facilitate the transfer of   a massive government housing  stock to a company other than  the one where it was  intended to go . We cared bt apparently no one else did  , but that is something that one day will become obvious .

We have made headway on corruption, the corruption  we saw occurs through using  fake identities  , false names and   fictional trusts.  it is not on a person identity thing but using fake entities . the banks are now  checking the validity of   companies  and the  directors and shareholders, but you can still register a company and have  a liquidation   through a liquidator who is totally fictional   and hopefully soon  the questions will be asked about  the tamaki redevelopment company  Limited, Tamaki regeneration limited and the fictional  tamaki regeneration  company limited which , to add to the confusion is is referred to as TRC 

see also Corruption Alert ..Tamaki Regeneration limited   and Crown Entities , Fictional entities and making things up as they go

I  knew that  fictional organisations existed after questioning   the existence of   the animal welfare institute of New Zealand  which was in reality nothing more than a trading name used by Neil Wells.  Wells was the  barrister  who  drafted  and was adviser to the select committee on the animal welfare   bill  which, when passed    facilitated the  granting of  coercive law  enforcement powers .  Wells made a fraudulent  application  to the minister   and   subsequently  obtained this law enforcement power for  his fictional organisation   this was   covered up by his associates  in   court action  against me   to re write history. despite many requests  this has been covered up 

Penny came to court with me   and stood beside me more times than I  can  mention , no other friend has stood beside me like she has .

The state of corruption : New Zealand  Questioning  corruption is not for the faint hearted especially in New Zealand , because we are repeatedly told that there is no corruption , we must be delusional, ignoring   corruption is liek   ignoring cancer  while penny was    fighting  corruption  she  did not notice the tumours in her own body .

Penny You are  going  to have to get better    we still need you  , I have had plenty of friends at  deaths door   and  they are here today ,   You are  a fighter   your work is not   done  .

Get better  girl   and  Onward and upward     there is much more work to be done

Hugs
