Labour's next Candidate for Rimutaka
It looks like Moana Mackey will not be Rimutaka Candidate for Labour next election, but Paul Chalmers. Who?
Labour looks likely to select a candidate for the upper half of the Hutt Valley who is chairman of their Whangarei Electorate committee, their candidate at the last election in Whangarei (but not ranked on their party list), and lives in Northland "to be nearer to crayfish" - okay, but Rimutaka is a landlocked electorate, and there are not many Crays in the Hutt River.
I checked to see what I could find about Mr Chalmers - there is nothing unusual - he has previously been an education officer in a Union and now owns and runs a Private Training school in Auckland aimed at foreign students.
However, I checked out the driving distance from his home (according to a public register) to Upper Hutt, according to Wises, the shortest route is a mere 808km!
