    Cr Mackay continues to show disrespect to Cr Johnston, this time by blowing raspberries at her. The chair called the behaviour out but not the councillor specifically (“whoever made that noise …”) but it was very obviously him. He’s an embarrassment.

      Wait, it was him? I actually went back to rewatch that moment multiple times to try and figure out who it was, paying particularly close attention to Cr Mackay, but I couldn’t see any evidence of whom it was.

          Hmm, I guess I can maybe see it? Like you say, unfortunately the quality is not very high, so it’s hard to say with any confidence.

            Cr Johnston and someone else (maybe Cr Massey?) called him out specifically on Twitter.

            Plus he has form: 14/06/2023 minutes (.doc file warning)

            Councillor JOHNSTON: The LORD MAYOR stood up in this place and he put out a glossy brochure. He said, there’s going to be a second bridge and he and the Councillor for Walter Taylor Ward are on a unity ticket to see thousands more cars come through our area. Well I’m not—I mean the Councillor for Walter Taylor Ward is actually repeatedly blowing raspberries at the moment, which I think is kind of offensive but, you know, as he turns his chair and turns his back, I mean I guess that’s just how he rolls in this place.
