I posed several questions to xema and she has finally addressed a couple of them - what she neglected to mention is that she is actively against mainstay renewable energy development in all cases except rooftop solar. That completely contradicts the idea she floats that climate change is her primary concern.
There are two other issues I'd like to see addressed. The first is why she didn't tell Skinner that a discussion was ongoing. In any election process the action can only be seen as a (successful) effort to steal an election.
She's been asked to explain but she is dedicated to avoiding answering for her actions.
The second is her claim to be able to be fair. There is another thread on whaling where after a series of attempts by her to falsely portray me as being a supporter of whaling, I brought up the questions she has been dodging. Her response was to 1) threaten to lock the thread, and 2) promise "I will make a good faith effort to be fair"
That brings us to another of my questions above. HEr claim is that she will be fair, yes. But she conducted a multiyear "don't feed the "kea" campaign that is still hanging out there waiting for an explanation.
Since the campaign was directed at me and she is claiming the ability to be fair generally, I like her to explain openly what the intent was in making all of those posts to the people who were responding to me?
Perhaps she will address those questions here, now.
In any case, I'm pretty sure this thread on whaling is a good example of what anyone who crosses xemasab is in for:

ETA: This is the 2008 post that caused her to launch a her vendetta against me.
