Labour’s crack-pots

Unrepentant, Labour’s finance team should at least consider being embarrassed by their boorish heckling of the Finance Minister.

Far from presenting a government in waiting to steward New Zealand out of a cost of living crisis, the party’s three most senior money MPs were more ‘Regina George’ than ‘rigorous opposition’. …

But what Barbara Edmonds, Deborah Russell and Megan Woods brought to Scrutiny Week was a het up and, at times, rude heckling that risked undermining their own credibility and Labour’s.

But the hearing won’t be remembered for showing the minister up on the matter, it will be remembered for the chaotic cacophony of Labour MPs yelling: “Which table?! Which table??!!” at Willis, drowning the finance minister out, after she suggested they had misread a table.

National should take the select committee footage and use it in “Vote Labour for more of this” ads 🙂
