Andrew Bydder: Hamilton Councillor defends expletive-laden comments directed at neighbouring council - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

Hamilton city councillor Andrew Bydder is on the defence, after delivering an expletive-laden rant to a neighbouring council.

In a letter directed at Waipā District Council, Bydder used derogatory language to voice his displeasure with the placement of a third bridge in Cambridge.

He has since claimed he tried to be polite to the council - but it never got him anywhere. 

"I did this because it cannot be ignored. It was the only way to get a reaction, and to get the issue dealt with. I'd rather not do it this way, but if it's the only way they react, then I have to."
