Labour comes out against S92A

NZPA have just reported:

Labour MP Clare Curran has drafted a member’s bill overturning the section and will attempt to get Parliament to consider it.

Well done Clare. That is great news. Generally MPs need the permission of their Caucus to introduce a private members bill, so I read this as Labour reversing their previous support for S92A. It is a very welcome u-turn.

This now has S92A opposed by Labour, ACT, Greens,United Future and presumably Progressive.

The ball is firmly with the Government now.

Once again big ups to Labour for their change of position. I’m delighted.
