Labour's Deputy Leader Kelvin Davis appears to be relishing Destiny Church leader Brian Tamaki's suggestion that he and Hone Harawira may challenge him for the Te Tai Tokerau electorate.
"When someone like him says he's going to run a candidate against me, my campaign bank account flourishes," Davis told media this morning.
This comes after Tamaki told Q&A last night that he may consider going back into politics if not enough was done to address the high number of Māori in prison.
"Maybe I'll have to ring my mate Hone Harawira up in the North and say brother, we might have to take this electorate."
He would not go into much more detail but said the move would be more likely if "we don't get any action" when it comes to seeing Māori families suffer.
