She should be removed from parliament, now that the investigation has concluded and she was found to be corrupt....get rid of her.

I guess when she isn't in the government and she's now independent she probably doesn't have much sway in parliament anyway.

I was just reading this from 2022: https://www.1news.co.nz/2022/08/17/explainer-what-happens-if-an-mp-is-expelled-from-their-party/

And noticed this closing statement:

The Waka Jumping option is available to all parties - however, it is unlikely National will utilise the legislation.

National voted against the law change in 2018 and still oppose the legislation. Leader Christopher Luxon says the party would repeal it if in government.

Luxon says a lot of things ๐Ÿ˜†

Odd that blue and green agree so strongly on this.
