Hayley Holt Green MP?

The Herald reports:

Well, she's back at the University of Auckland (part-time) and is seriously stoked with the 96 per cent she got for an essay on Karl Marx. Politics is her latest thing and let's just say the might do well to have a chat, even if they've already made the same mistake as many others.

“She gets under-estimated an awful lot,” says Ric Salizzo, the self-described High Commander of Prime's The Crowd Goes Wild.

“People see the pretty girl on television and judge her straight away – well, more fool them because there's a lot going on.”

And it does happen a lot: people see the model features and hair, then one plus one equals bimbo, or, as the women's mags alliteratively put it, “bubbly blonde”.

I've met Hayley. She's definitely no bimbo. A very genuine fun person. Her politics were pretty Green back then, so no surprise she'd be thinking Green Party. I suspect sadly her essay on Karl Marx wasn't about how he was wrong on everything.

If Holt did stand for the Greens, she'd potentially attract considerable support for them.
