David Parker has resigned as Attorney General after an Investigate Magazine article showed he had filled false annual returns with the Companies Office. Question is why hasn't he resigned from his other portfolios?
Big come down for the minister favoured by Clark who awarded him a bagful of high profile portfolios in only his second term.
Another scalp for Investigate who snared John Tamihere and should have had David Benson-Pope with their last issue.
Parker seems to have paid price for Labour's recent scandles, namely Benson-Pope and the pledge card, they couldn't afford another one.
