    Why would an ambitious aspiring politician bother, knowing that the glittering baubles of office are forever out of reach?

    Are you saying Luxon should be excluded from membership of the party? Or are you saying he shouldn't be able to stand as a candidate?
    I don't know the first thing about him, but I gather he has made his name in the corporate world, rather than as an axe-murderer.
    As far as I know, I could join any one of our political parties. I also think I could try and get elected as the candidate in any party. So could you. Why not Luxton?
    I have no idea why the glittering baubles of office would be out of the reach of any capable MP, or why you think they would be.
