VIP limo campaigning

1 News reports:

Today, Carmel Sepuloni attended a number of events across Wellington while campaigning for Labour, and she travelled to and between them in her chauffeur-driven ministerial limousine — a high-end Audi.

Crown limos are normally used by ministers when they’re conducting ministerial business, although exceptions are made for the PM and Leader of the Opposition during the election campaign.

Amazed at this. Its not as if there is any shortage of local Labour MPs who could have driven her around in their own car rather than using VIP Transport.
