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

If she refuses to resign, it will be interesting to see if greens use the "waka jumping" rules against her.

They were against them at the time, as they felt they could be used to silence dissent in the party ranks, so to use them would be an embarassing change of direction for them.

I personally wouldn't see it as hypocritical. Not sure why it would be embarrassing.

Using this to get rid of a corrupt person is not the same as using it to silence dissent.
