    That's so FUNNY! Why? Well, yes, after Ed Koch term limits were voted in by the people, including for City Council, borough Presidents, BUT after 2 terms our Mayor managed to get that overturned "Just this once" & the majority of those folks went on, with Bloomberg, to a third & final term.

    Money talks. He now plans to spend his time & billions backing anti-gun candidates & issues.

    gggrrrr don't mention Mayors to me ..ours wants to ban smoking from the entire CBD. No open air smoking at all. bloody lunatics all of them . Could you imagine being a tourist lighting up a ciggy in the street and being confronted by a copper to put it out even if there is no one around you?

    Ours (the Dems' new golden child, Julian Castro) tried to make it illegal for people to smoke in their own front yard if a parade is on their street.

    Coke won, How to take over a country through the backdoor. Well if any of you come here in the future to see Ulura or our outback don't trip over the rubbish being left behind.

    but wait there's more

    If the Northern territory government doesn't grow some balls and kick Coke to the curb we're stuffed.
