The Week in Politics: Will the Greens use the law they hate? (www.rnz.co.nz)

I must admit, I don't fully understand the green party's objection to this piece of legislation, a party is elected with a mandate to represent the wishes of the people who voted for them. If an MP doesn't want to do that, then they should indeed resign, at least as a list MP.

Agreed, this situation has none of the aspects that they opposed about the law.

It would be an embarassing change of course if they turned around and used the legislation though.

You'd think she will have the integrity to stand down though.
