Cunliffe: 'We must stop the leaks'

Labour leader David Cunliffe called again for an early leadership contest and pledged to get behind whoever wins if he loses. His comments this morning in advance of Labour's first caucus meeting of the new term follow calls from other MPs for a leadership contest to be delayed until the party has time to digest its loss and the reasons for it. Flanked by his deputy David Parker, Mr Cunliffe said the party's ruling Council would launch an immediate review of the election today, but Labour had to get on with rebuilding as soon as possible.
