This is sad and desperate now…
Darleen Tana off to the Court of Appeal to argue for her place in Parliament
Independent MP Darleen Tana will go to the Court of Appeal to argue for her place in Parliament, according to her former colleagues at the Green Party.
The Green Party, in a statement, said it had been notified of Tana’s intention to appeal the High Court ruling, which threw out her claim that the party acted unlawfully during its investigation into her connection to allegations of migrant worker exploitation.
That High Court claim was Tana’s bid to save her career as an MP, as the Green Party was set to meet to discuss whether to invoke the “waka jumping” law. That rule allows parties to kick out MPs who have left the caucus but continue to sit in Parliament as independents.
However, according to the Greens, Tana’s latest court action will not delay their plans. The party was scheduled to meet on Thursday, holding a special meeting with party delegates, to discuss whether to try and kick Tana out of Parliament.
…this madness needs to end now.
The Party membership have to trust Chloe to use the waka jumping legislation to finally cauterise this mess.
Chloe needs 75% and I think the amount will be close to 90%.
The uber woke clique supporting Darleen have to ask themselves if this is really worth destroying the Greens over.
Drop the hammer, it’s time to end this and allow the Greens to get back to holding this terrible Government to account!
Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.



It’s been a great series so far. I hope they don’t end it with the traditional cliff-hanger though – it’d be better for the ratings to have a new villain in series two.
She’ll/they’ll, them will waka jump to the National party as it is the perfect fit for both her/they/them narcissistic traits. It won’t end well this series.
Five bucks says it won’t be National. . .
Don’t worry, Parliament is littered with villains of every colour, shape, form and pronoun, not just Greenies.
But mostly ex greens.
Andrew Bayley, mostly National.
Any list MP who chooses to leave her party or the vast majority loses trust in should automatically leave Parliament. Obviously, list MPs represent their parties not an electorate.
Agree, should be a provision for list MPs.
It’s wonderful to watch this slow-motion train crash. I hope it serves as a reminder to voters as where this brand of politics always ends up.
Yes Andrew, we saw this brand of politics with Nationals Jamie Lee Ross. Although that train crash was even slower. We saw the sordid infighting with Simon Bridges and Paula Bennett and even recently the brand of politics that allowed Sam Uffindell to be elected.
In tye dying days of Labour’s time in office there was a string of ministers that dug a deep deep hole for Labour . Labour is still the only party to have a member jailed . Politics is a dirty business and no party is not tainted by ministers behavior.
Name them Trevor.. I provide evidence , your silly little rhetoric…

Labour may not be the only party to have a member jailed, trevor.
Oh shit Trevor now Andrew Bayley. You are embarrassing.
She was only suspended in March. I’m sure there’s still time for some korero to happen.
I’m a they/them and I want Darleen gone
Fuck me there are a lot of juveniles on here wanking on about pronouns or what ever .You think you are mature enough to vote but the average 16 year old is way more mature and would actually focus on policy .Time for the so called adults to grow up .All Chloe needs to do is take Darleen out side and kick her up the backside with her DR MARTENS boot .
Greens hug you to death they would not resort to violence
It’s Friday. Did they do it or bottle it?
