Darleen Tana is no longer a Member of Parliament, as Speaker Gerry Brownlee finalised the process of her removal this morning.
Tana, who resigned from the Green Party earlier this year following allegations of her involvement in migrant exploitation at her husband’s business, had been sitting as an independent MP.
The Green Party initiated legal action under the 2018 waka-jumping law to remove her in July, which concluded today.
Benjamin Doyle will take Tana’s seat, and her removal is expected to increase Green Party funding.
Tana is reportedly appealing a High Court ruling that upheld the Greens’ investigation.
One green commie out, one green commie in. Of course it wasn’t the taxpayer funding the commies were after was it!!
Wonder when she will spill the beans on what she knows.
The last chapter is far away.
I would suggest a holiday for Darleen after the debacle of “bicyclegate”
Maybe a trip over to Scotland to check out some old family ties?
Bye bye Darling. Whoops, I mean Darleen.
Your contribution to parliament was zero. Sadly, your pay and perks wasn’t.
