Another Labour Fail
The Labour Party diverted a press conference that was to be held outside a supposedly overcrowded South Auckland house after its occupants denied they
had housing problems.
Other media had reported there were 17 people living in the Bairds Road, Otara
home including in a tent on the front lawn.
But as media waited on the street for Labour leader Andrew Little on Tuesday a man came out to say he was the owner of the house and the claims had
been greatly exaggerated.
The tent had been erected because the family were renovating, said the man, who
declined to give his name.
"They say there's 17 people living here, it's not true," he said.
