Knox's Scott ward election

What happened to the interview on Dwayne Lawless in the Scott ward interviews? There is no information available on this nominee? 

Why did Cr Peter Cole decide to nominate for a different ward from his current councillor position? There were queries about his excessive absence in the local newspapers recently - can we have more information? 

Was David Cooper the councillor who promised no rate increase some years ago but when he was mayor, and the rates in Knox jumped tremendously? He seemed the most experienced of the candidates and I wondered what his views are regarding the never ending increases in rates, excessive use of council funds for seminars and self-development, as reported in recent issues.
