    The man is an idiot.
    Good news.

    This guy is famous for pissing away $50m on a stupid cycle bridge idea, blowing the already over budget light rail elephant into budget stratosphere and calling people who protest a "river of filth". Good riddance to the smarmy little prick.

    So now they go to the barrel, reach deep down and scrape once more for a replacement. The last one was Ginny Anderson so don't hope for anyone competent.

    If they somehow find a competent replacement he/she will be the first competent
    cabinet minister in this government. Perhaps they could ask National or ACT if
    they would spare someone for a few months!!!

    Bring back Phil Twyford! ROTFLMAO!

    Looks like the 'river of filths' portfolios have been spread amongst his fellow incompetents. Poor wee Chris it'll take weeks to get the splinters out of his fingers after this disaster :)

    The article says,

    Quote

    "Hipkins said Deputy Prime Minister Carmel Sepuloni would pick up the Auckland
    and workplace relations and safety portfolios, David Parker would take transport, Andrew Little would become immigration minister, and Kiri Allan would take Wood’s associate minister of finance responsibilities."

    So nothing new.

    The scary thing is that he might increase the overall IQ of the cabinet. But not by very much!

    You bet - a clear indication that Hipkins has no options in his
    current caucus for new Cabinet ministers.
