Why Louisa Wall is a Perfect MP

"At 36, Ms Wall - young, Maori and lesbian"

Need we say more.......

Having served in the Northern Districts woman's Cricket team with Louisa Wall I can state she will make a fabulous National Party MP.

Louisa turned up to her first Cricket game proudly sporting a pair of black shoes.

Those of us familiar with the game of Cricket will know the issue with this.

Louisa is a non-conformist who will struggle with the structure of Parliament. Oh, she has already:

She recently earned a ticking off from her party leaders for saying she intended to campaign for the party vote, rather than the electorate vote, in the election lead-up.

I do wish her all the best as this is going to be one exciting MP to watch for these reasons. Dear Leader will NOT, I repeat, will NOT be able to control this one. Louisa marches to the beat of her own drum.

Louisa is an amazingly talented sportsperson who can I am sure excel at any sport she plays. She was a great Cricketer for the period of a few months ...... until she got bored with it. Politics may suffer a similar fate.

A team player she ain't. And any Journo should ask her about the Christchurch 2nd XI tournament and Lance Cairns.

As I said, I like her style in life, no prisoners, no favours asked for. It's just about as suited to politics as I am. Which is a resounding "not".

I can't wait to see the first Labour MP who pisses her off.

So do tell about Cairnsey CK?? And while you're at it... was PD's LA jaunt problem a mild indiscretion such as a useless traffic ticket, or was it one of those "just wait 'til the fit hits the shan" moments??

I will say that Cairns was disgusting. Louisa handled him admirably.

PD - refer Whale Oil.

No she is worse than an academic, she is 'civil servant'.

National gets to tick all the minority boxes with one MP.

She wont survive after election 08 as she wont be high enough on the list. And even if she was the crushing machine would run her down
