Barry Soper: Darleen Tana's ensured their removal from Parliament

A Green Party meeting's still planned this weekend, despite former MP Darleen Tana taking out an injunction hoping to prevent it.

The meeting was to consider using waka-jumping legislation to expel Tana from Parliament, because they're refusing to resign, despite quitting the Party.

Tana's challenge against the Party will be heard in the Auckland High Court tomorrow.

ZB senior political correspondent Barry Soper says it's looking more likely that the Greens will utilise the waka-jumping legislation and boot them out of Parliament.
