National has no tolerance for bullying.
This comes from the party's deputy leader, after two Young Nats resigned following the trolling of three Christchurch left-wing politicians.
Wigram MP and Cabinet Minister Megan Woods, Ilam MP Sarah Pallett and Christchurch City Councillor Sara Templeton were harassed online, with Woods calling the comments misogynistic and toxic.
Nicola Willis told Mike Hosking they first heard of the allegations yesterday morning, and then their board initiated an investigation.
She says hiding behind an anonymous identity to attack others isn't acceptable, and no political party would endorse it.
