Such are the failings of a GRC system of voting. You could argue that if the NSP had won the Marine Parade GRC, you'd be getting a highly paid 'warehouse assistant' sitting as one of our MPs.
Personally, I'd do away with GRCs, make electoral seats all single ward entities and the problem of under representation of minority groups would still exist but it would prevent people getting into Parliament on the coat tails of others. However, unlike some, I am of the mentality that it's how he/she serves their constituents that matters and not their skin colour.
do you all think gms can really handle the marine parade grc?
1 small pc shop maybe yes.
