Pollies: "Leave with dignity": MPs agree Darleen Tana should 'pack her bags'

Today on Politics Wednesday National’s Mark Mitchell and Labour’s Duncan Webb joined Mike Hosking to dig into some of the biggest political topics of the week thus far. 

Darleen Tana is still undecided as to whether she’ll resign from Parliament.  

She has resigned from the Green Party, which is urging her to quit Parliament after a report on her knowledge of alleged migrant exploitation at her husband's business. 

Tana told 1News that if she hasn’t decided whether she’ll resign from Parliament by Sunday, she'll likely be sitting come Tuesday. 

Labour’s Duncan Webb told Mike Hosking that she should pack her bags. 

He said she came in on the Green’s ticket, and since the Greens don’t want her, she shouldn’t be an MP anymore. 

“Leave with dignity, find something else to do.” 

National’s Mark Mitchell agreed, telling Mike Hosking that Webb summed it up very well. 

He said that Green co-leader Chloe Swarbrick has handled the situation quite well considering their party’s vehement opposition to the waka jumping bill and the difficult situation they’re in.
