[…] Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and her Local Government Minister Nanaia Mahuta were at odds on Tuesday morning over who deserved the blame for Labour’s decision to vote in favour of entrenching part of the Three Waters legislation.
[…] Mahuta made it clear that some junior Labour MPs would have been aware of the Green Party’s proposal to entrench.
[…] Ardern, Mahuta and the Labour caucus are refusing to say whether the detail of that proposal was discussed at Labour’s Tuesday morning caucus meeting, or whether the discussion focused on entrenchment more generally, leaving some MPs under the impression the vote was for the original 75 per cent entrenchment – a proposal MPs knew would fail.
