George Ngatai was announced as a candidate for New Zealand First in July. He fronted the party’s own broadcast of its convention alongside current MP Jenny Marcroft.

He faced criticism for a comment he made defining a woman as someone who knows “where to shop for clothes and shoes and chocolates.”

Stuff made inquiries into whether he was still a candidate after being tipped off that he had been removed from the party’s candidate page.

Online personality Martel Wikeepa, known as ‘Shubz’ yesterday posted a series of screenshots which appear to show Ngatai attempting to join numerous parties as a candidate having been initially told he would not be fit for New Zealand First due to his connections to Destiny Church.

He is the literal metaphor of the scorpion on the Fox’s face for crying out loud.

After the farcical Heal the Nation Hikoi supported by Hobson’s Pledge, why would anyone give him a job?

The Culture War Right have attempted to promote inflammatory Māori social media personalities in the hope of making the type of inroads Trump did with Black and Latino male voters.

Watching it meltdown is glorious.
