Labour has outlined their stance on the recent Biometric Capability Upgrade project saga - and claimed MBIE's Nic Blakely should have resigned from the role.

Last week, Parliament’s Privileges Committee found Blakeley was among officials who deliberately misled MPs by not revealing the project had been scrapped.

Labour MP Phil Twyford says the report was debated in Parliament today - so it felt appropriate to showcase the party's stance on the matter. 

"This is such an important issue... these very senior public servants came to Parliament specifically to answer questions from MPs about the public money being spent by these ministries. This is Parliament's role - holding the executive or the Government of the day to account."

Nearly 30 years after the death of rapper Tupac Shakur, a guilty verdict for the killer has been delivered.

Former gang boss Duane 'Keffe D' Davis has been found guilty of orchestrating the crime back in 1996, and recounted the shooting in a 2019 memoir. 

True crime documentarian Mike Dorsey says Davis didn't pull the trigger, but he supplied the gun that his nephew Orlando Anderson used in the crime. 

"Tupac basically punched the wrong guy that night, and that guy came back and got him."
