    Overall a bit naïve, but nothing obviously fraudulent there. What did I miss?
    You missed the $300k+ paid by taxpayers to defend Trevor Mallard for knifing an innocent man in the back.

    Far from innocent imo unless you support men treating women like that. Mallard thought he was doing the right thing , and he was but to a lesser degree.

    A very good idea for all concerned.
    Very good except he stays for a few years drawing his salary and expenses.

    Yes snouting again.I have empathy for him taking time off to support his wife but he should do the decent thing by resigning and hopefully letting in some new blood to start a rebuild of this rotten self entitled party. What havoc he has triggered for his party .

    Why should he go early? He was duly elected by Tauranga voters only 7 months ago. He represents them and should continue.

    That's quite ironic given your stance on similar aspersions on Labour party members, especially Jacinda. You don't require evidence of wrong doing, but we do?
