When Judith Collins was asked about Police Minister Mark Mitchell’s “absolutely misogynistic” comment “I don’t know if a gang member wants to deal with a perimenopausal woman”, her look said it all.
Collins turned and eyeballed Mitchell, who grinned, before the Speaker of the House Gerry Brownlee quipped:
“The look would probably do as an answer.”
Collins, who was standing in for absent Minister of Women Nicola Grigg, faced questions in the House from Labour’s Jan Tinetti over Mitchell’s comments, made during an interview with The Platform.
