The Hive did not expect such a quick reaction to the questions it posed this morning about NZ First's relationship with Owen Glenn. In her blog Audrey Young confirms that NZ First did get a very large donation late last year, but the Party President is unsure whether Owen Glenn is the donor. WOW. This is interesting.
New Zealand First received a large mystery donation in December last year but Party president Dail Jones does not know whether wealthy expat businessman Owen Glenn gave it.
Jones told the Herald this morning the sum was between $10,000 and $100,000." but added: "It is probably closer to $100,000."
"It is a substantial amount for us."
It raises more questions at present than it answers and it is time Glenn gave answers. In January Glenn told Herald reporter Martha McKenzie-Minifie that he had given money to other New Zealand political parties but would not name them.
