Whoa!

Helen Clark just stood down as leader of the Labour Party!

Was not expecting this at all!

Very good speech - gracious and dignified for the most part.

So, who's going to head the Opposition now?

I did a quick *boggle* there! The Labour MP for our city used to be Helen Clark. She was such a waste of space, I had to abandon principles and vote for the other side. When he won, she promptly resigned citing lack of support from the party. I've yet to meet anyone here who did think she was any use, so I'm not quite sure who voted for her! So whenever I hear of your Helen Clark, I always wonder what she's doing on the wrong side of the world...
