Kiri Allan has resigned all her portfolios after being charged with reckless driving and resisting arrest following a car crash.

The Prime Minister today confirmed the former Justice Minister was taken into custody after the crash on Evans Bay Parade in Roseneath just after 9pm.

She was charged with reckless driving and resisting arrest, and was released about 1am.

ZB senior political correspondent Barry Soper says Kiri Allan's political career won't recover from this incident- and that Labour's done and dusted.
