David Farrar (Kiwiblog) has cut through the political who-said-what and media hype surrounding Richard Worth in a good backgrounder in NBR, The fall and fall of Richard Worth.
The sad reality for Dr Worth is that there were so many things it could have been. It could have been about his Indian business dealings. It could have been about the high profile defamation case he is a witness in. It could have been about his visit to a crime victim, despite knowing the assailants’ family. It could have been about his Korean business dealings. Or it could have been something to do with a woman.
He ends:
Until the exact nature of the criminal allegations are known, it is premature to say he will definitely go as an MP. But I have to say it is hard to imagine he will ever attend a National Caucus meeting again.
