Today’s Nincompoop of the day is Green electorate MP Chloe Swarbrick. Using her logic MP’s shouldn’t be able to make any laws about cars if they own cars or laws about bicycle lanes if they own a bike. Heaven forbid they should make laws about G.S.T on fruit and veges if they eat fruit and veges!
If a politician is a tenant then should they be allowed to pass Landlord bashing laws? She hasn’t thought this through as there will always be multiple conflicts of interest.
In the last term of Parliament, 115/120 MPs owned homes, the majority of them owned multiple. In any other sector, making decisions about something you have a direct financial stake in is a conflict of interest. When I suggested this in Parliament, I was very angrily shouted at. https://t.co/lQ0249HtbE
