Former Labour MP Stuart Nash has resigned from his job at recruitment agency Robert Walters, after a formal review was initiated by the company.
It comes after Nash apologised for telling the Platform a woman is a “person with a p***y and a pair of t**s,” on Tuesday.
Robert Walters confirmed a review was taking place after the company was made aware of his comments made in a “personal capacity”, a spokesperson said.
“The remarks are deeply inappropriate and do not reflect our values or the standards of our business. We have initiated a formal review, and we will not be commenting further while that process is ongoing.”
RNZ approached Nash to discuss the formal review.
Nash would not be interviewed but told RNZ he “thoroughly enjoyed working for them”. When asked if he’d left the company, Nash said “I’ve resigned”.
He said it was a good company, but had decided it was best for himself, and the company, that he resign, “effective immediately”.
