Michael Woodhouse: Outgoing MP denies claims he ever said being male cost him a better spot on National's list

The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Sundays

Michael Woodhouse isn't angry, he's disappointed. He told the ODT he would have had a 45 percent chance of getting back in to Parliament, and says the National party gave precedence to diversity, rather than experience. But, he told Mike Hosking that he denies he ever said being male cost him a better spot. On Breakfast, National leader Chris Luxon dismissed allegations MPs were missing out on top rankings due to their gender. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
