WHAT STANDARDS DO WE EXPECT OUR LOCAL MP TO LIVE BY?
Politicians have to be thick skinned and live with more scrutiny than the average voter. Rightly so, and this includes Nick Smith.
"We know that he is feeling under pressure in his seat of Nelson this year, but staggering about in the dead of night, ranting about Nazis and having to be forcibly removed from the chamber is not the way to behave as an MP."
"Wood said Smith's behaviour was unlikely to endear him to local voters, who want an MP focused on representing them."
