Labour is insisting it would have handled the Sam Uffindell saga differently.

The new National MP for Tauranga has been stood down while the party investigates new allegations about his behaviour at university, allegations which he denies.

Uffindell had already been under fire, over revelations he was involved in an attack on a younger boy while he was at high school.

Senior Labour Cabinet Minister Megan Woods told Mike Hosking while Luxon wasn't told about the allegations; the Labour Party always informs its leader about such matters.

National’s Mark Mitchell told Mike Hosking Luxon is right to be taking the matter seriously.
