Herald calls on Logan to go

The NZ Herald does an editorial on the sad of the Environment .  I'll just quote their conclusion:

The chief executive cannot remain when his organisation is revealed as having, at its head and perhaps also at its heart, a culture so politicised. It was wrong to hear and act on Mr Parker's recommendation of Clare Curran; to give her the work uncontested; to ignore Ms Leigh's protestations.

It was wrong to discuss Ms Setchell's appointment with Mr Benson-Pope; to effectively sack her; to twice mislead Mr for answers he gave to the House. And it is wrong for Mr Logan and Mr Mallard to think they can wait out the criticism again, as we await inquiry No 4. The former should resign, the latter ought to apologise. Then begins the job of restoring this ministry to the tasks it should perform impartially and professionally.

Logan should put his ministry ahead of himself and do the decent thing.
