On the basis of the report into Darleen Tana, the Green Party have excluded Tana from their caucus and asked her to resign as an MP. So far she has not, so she is now an Independent MP.
I will give credit to Chloe Swarbrick who was very good at the press conference making it clear how unacceptable Tana’s behaviour had been, and how the whole investigation wouldn’t have been needed if Tana had been truthful to then.
If Tana refuses to resign (as is likely), then the Greens will need to decide whether to use the wake jumping law to expel her from Parliament.
The post Tana now an Independent MP first appeared on Kiwiblog.
