Now Goff can’t even remember genders

Bad enough that Phil Goff can not recall being briefed by the SIS, but now he can’t even recall the gender of his own candidates.

Andrea Vance at Stuff reports:

Mr Goff denied Labour had used the same tactics to ensure Progressive leader Jim Anderton was elected in Wigram. “We always ran a candidate in Wigram and as I recall he ran quite hard but got thrashed by Jim.”

Labour’s candidate in Wigram in 2008 was Erin Ebborn-Gillespie, whom I am informed is female.
