Boobs on Bikes row goes to court 

Auckland City councillors have voted to seek a High Court injunction preventing the controversial Boobs on Bikes Parade.

The event involves topless women, porn stars and drag queens parading down Queen Street to promote an R18 expo.

Councillor Cathy Casey says the organiser's claim the parade is about freedom of expression is nonsense. She says it is just free advertising for a porn show and the council finds the parade offensive.

Casey is confident the High Court will grant the injunction.

But one councillor says the parade should go ahead. Bill Christian believes the council is overreacting and he says the parade attracts a decent crowd.

He says the parade reflects life in the 21st century and there will be times when women will show their breasts.
