Why you shouldn’t double dip

On the 6th of November at 3 pm Mike Davidson gave his maiden speech as a new Green Party MP in Wellington.

At 4 pm he was meant to be getting sworn in at the inaugural meeting of the Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Community Board in Christchurch. He missed that meeting.

This is why MPs should not also be on local government. You can’t do both jobs.
