Hope so, labour need a good clean out.
Forget the current team making the decisions, they need to bring in some new talent.
Problem is it's the backbench who will lose their jobs and the muppets on the frontbench who keep them, then it will be up to the labour membership to pick the best of a bad bunch (they should used to it by now).

Looks like one of Labour's MPs, Greg O'Connor, has already thrown in the towel as far as Labour as being the next government is concerned, but pleading with Ohariu voters to give him the electorate vote as he is not on the list.
And why was he ranked so low on Labour's list?
This explains it : " A former police union boss from the West Coast, his advocacy for arming police and taking a tougher stance on drugs put him offside with many on the Left."
Sharma karma on the Labour MPs who kept quiet when the bullying was going on inside the caucus.
https://www.thepost.co.nz/a/politics...m_id=mh_skybox
"Labour MP Greg O’Connor has conceded his party will likely lose the election, with his electorate opponent Nicola Willis appointed finance minister.
With National leading in all public polls it is an honest strategy – although not one which will endear him to colleagues. On the campaign trail leader Chris Hipkins has hammered home the message that the party can still turn the result around.
In a bid to hold on to his north Wellington seat Ōhāriu, O’Connor also said residents should give him their “electorate vote only” to ensure he remains in Parliament."

Going to take Labour a long long time to regain any respect from the voting majority. Any credibility has been obliterated

This is where the real debate is going to be :

It's going to be a spectacle worthy of being held in a colosseum.
The lineup: David Seymour, Debbie Packer, Winston Peters, Marama Davidson

It's a pity James Shaw won't be there - he could be asked about his fictitious BA from Victoria University and MSc from the University of Bath.

Panda-NZ, have you received a knock to the head in the last day or two? You're being mighty polite and reasonable.

How long do you think it will take for Marama to call David a racist?
