Matt McCarten has aannounced that he is going to stand in the Mana by-election.
This could create an upset. Union loyalists upset at the parachuting in of Kris Fa’afoi could easily chuck enough votes Matt’s way to make a big dent in Labour’s majority.
Will it be enough? Probably not.
Matt at least has true left wing credentials and for that reason alone the workers of Mana should support him. (No equivocating here with endorsements)
Meanwhile I’m not sure the Labour spin-weasels were thinking too hard with Kris Fa’afoi’s signs.
Doesn’t he have any Mana and is that why he is working for it?
