Labour MP Damien O'Connor has said sorry after lashing out about a "gaggle of gays" and "self-serving unionists" having too much control over the party list. Mr O'Connor said a number of people had been overlooked in the ranking process. "Provincial MPs in the Labour Party have ended up being isolated ... there's a risk that then the party doesn't represent the wider New Zealand." Leader Phil Goff said Mr O'Connor had been told off for the comments, but that the "West Coast language" was actually likely to help him in his bid for the electorate.
