Benson-Pope Encourages Vandalism

David Benson-Pope has resorted to gutter politics in his home electorate of Dunedin South.

Following a recent "Meet the Candidates" meeting Mosgiel, just south of Dunedin City, Benson-Pope slapped a Labour sticker on the car bumper of National Party candidate, Conway Powell.

Benson-Pope publicly accepted responsibility for the incident on local television, but tried to brush it off as just a harmless bit of fun.Nowhere near as harmless as Matt Flannnagan sticking posters over Benson Popes electorate office, of course.

DBP was outraged, even calling on Police to call round to the alledged offenders' home, to collect money to pay for the cost of removing the posters.

Conway Powell is rightly disgusted as DBP's actions, and his arrogant response. If I was Powell, perhaps I`d slap a tennis ball up DPB`s exhaust.
