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?
Act MP Awatere Huata stole from a government funded foundation and paid for a stomach staple.
Holy shit, that’s amazing!
“Nah, fuck you - I got mine!” encapsulated perfectly!
Possibly, but given the police are involved, I’d be taking it pretty seriously. Filing a false complaint is a crime, after all.
Agreed. Surely she’s not that stupid, but who knows? Time will tell, hopefully…
People don’t necessarily shoplift for logical reasons. It’ll be an interesting one to watch, for sure.
