Mitchell wins Rodney
April 26th, 2011 at 9:06 pm by David FarrarMark Mitchell has won National’s nomination for Rodney on the first ballot – a resounding victory. Congratulations to him.
I’ve profiled Mark previously here.
Rodney is a very safe seat for National, so Mark is likely to have a relativly long parliamentary career.

He’ll probably turn out to be much less than the narrative.. but it’ll take a year or two to find out. But we live in hope.

Absolutely marvellous. Well done Mark! This has really put the icing (and dare I say – a glace cherry) (damn this keyboard for having no acute accent!) on the metaphorical cake of what has been a superb Easter break.

I doubt that Mallard will be tempted to have a crack at him – he might end up back in hospital again
