    A senior labour Party MP is criticising controversial comments on alcohol by Mike King

    A senior labour Party MP is criticising controversial comments on alcohol by Mike King


    The advocate yesterday said on Newstalk ZB, alcohol can stop negative thoughts - and could be a solution to mental health.

    Ginny Andersen says alcohol is our most harmful drug.

    She says it's worrying to hear such views from someone who's had a lot of Government funding.

    Andersen says King's comments seem uninformed.
