Dear Mike Davidson, you MUST take the next Green Party list position

Next person on Greens’ list to replace Doyle unsure if he wants it

The former Christchurch city councillor who is next on the Green Party’s list is still deciding whether he wants to join Parliament, after Benjamin Doyle resigned yesterday.

Mike Davidson, who was running for the community board in the Innes ward in this year’s local body elections, is next on the Green Party list.

Davidson is currently the Operations Manager at Whitiora, a skills and employment centre. He represented the Papanui ward as a councillor between 2016 and 2022.

At a mayoral debate in Christchurch, Davidson told 1News that the “opportunity” to go to Parliament is “something that I need to consider quite strongly, and I’m going to do that over the weekend”.

Dear Mike Davidson, you MUST take the next Green Party list position.

After all the flakey shit from the Identity Politics clique who were empowered by the Greens inane woke voting structure, (Kerekere, Darleen Tana, Doyle) the Greens desperately need some stability, and nothing says stability like heteronormative white cis males.

The Greens need Mike way more than Mike needs the Greens right now, and if he doesn’t stand, the next person on the list is this one...

..Stephanie Rogers who pole danced to raise funds for her election campaign will just become the next advert for ACT/NZF and National to use in the election.

I’m not sure more angry feminists is what the Greens need right now.

Can we please focus on trying to win the election rather than score points against the patriarchy?
