Cough, so um, THIS is the new National Party Auckland Central Candidate?
The board of the National Party will be asked to consider expelling one of its young members.
A falling-out among the Young Nats saw Emma Mellow, 20, barred – and then reinvited – to the party conference this month.
Now some Auckland members have moved to put a motion before the board asking it to throw out the former northern regional chairwoman.
Young Nats president Daniel Fielding confirmed a motion would be put before the board at its meeting next month to consider “allegations” against Ms Mellow.
“There are people that have issues with her and they are discussing that with the board and I suppose expulsion could be one possibility. The only organ in the party that has the power to do that is the board. They haven’t been formally approached yet.”
He would not say what the allegations are. “I don’t want to bias the process.”
That was 2010, fast forward a decade and we have a candidate process that has been ruined by dirty politics.
No wonder Nuwanthie has that look on her face.

FFS – what’s next – ask the new candidate to count to 10 in Maori.
I’d settle for competence.
Or just maybe, a little integrity.
Yes and ask her if she knows what ‘climate emissions’ means?
definitely a prerequisite for being proficient
If the Nats all vote labour for electorate in Auckland central -then the greens could be out of parliament. Maybe that’s the grand plan.
Well if you want to play it like that then, winning.
Really meet the who, hope her intellect is deeper than the make up, or shall the candidate just be as deep as a puddle splash.
What a delightful collection of characters Judith has inherited! It couldn’t have happened to a nicer girl.
no wonder Mr Muller was out of there when he had a look inside.
What can be done to attract a different kind of personality into politics? How can we be a respectable country if these are our leaders?
