Anderton wants EFA changed

Having been referred to the Police for breaking the Electoral Finance Act, Jim Anderton now wants it changed.

Basically Jim thought the law would just apply to “bad people” and not himself. Here’s the real irony:

The decision means all four parties that supported the controversial electoral law changes last year have now fallen foul of the tight new rules on election advertising – mostly for not carrying authorising statements.

There was close to a dozen decisions released on Friday by the Electoral Commission. If I have time later today, I’ll take readers through them one by one. As usual I agree with most of them, but differ with a couple.
