I feel so sorry for James Shaw.

Does anyone know what the procedure is here if Golriz needs to step down permanently? Does she stay a member until the next election, does the next person on the list step up?

Honestly I feel like we shouldn't even have known which MP it was until someone has confirmed if the allegation is credible. The current reporting feels like a feeding frenzy.

She's not an athlete or in the Act Party so no name suppression..

Yeah she really should have jumped wakas before she got accused of shoplifting

Aside, what the hell is a green doing in a shop that flash? Shouldn't she be sustainably op-shopping or something?

Or taking overseas holidays during a climate crisis?

That's a good point actually.

Nah, that's not fair to the innocent.
