Estate agents sacked for racist posts stand for Whau local board

Melanie Earley Reporter from Western Leader

Kia ora neighbours, a husband and wife who were cut from a real estate company they worked for over racist social media comments are standing in the local body elections.

Paul and Kathryn Davie were real estate agents for Ray White in Auckland’s Blockhouse Bay but had their contracts terminated after making derogatory posts on Facebook about Muslims and Africans in 2019.

The couple are candidates for the Whau Local Board, which covers New Lynn, Green Bay, Kelston, Rosebank, Avondale, New Windsor and Blockhouse Bay.

Paul Davie has a political background and ran unsuccessfully for the Conservative Party in the 2017 General Election. He stood in the New Lynn electorate.

Suspicious Guy

Jan from Te Atatu South

Keep an eye on this guy, pretended to read the water meter, then wandered up the drive crowbar in hand when I asked what he wanted he said power and is there a dog.We have smart meters. He opened my neighbours gate (we are 3 units) and went in the back of her place with his crowbar. My son went round there and he took off. Police informed.
