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?

    Oh wow, so it’s still unclear whether there anything more than just accusations. What a mess, but I look forward to this playing out.

    I really hope it’s not a case of shoplifting

      Wasn’t it shayne Jones that got stung for buying sunnies on his parliamentary card? (Admittedly a bit different…)

      What other gaffes have we had?

      Possibly, but given the police are involved, I’d be taking it pretty seriously. Filing a false complaint is a crime, after all.

          People don’t necessarily shoplift for logical reasons. It’ll be an interesting one to watch, for sure.
