It is amazing how we can all hear the same content in a variety of ways, but I am not compelled by all this second-guessing after the verdicts have been delivered.

that Parliament be a place where sexual harassment allegations are taken seriously
If anything, Goff took too much responsibility for what was always the job of the Prime Minister and the senior National party hierarchy. He also took too long to shut up and get out of the way once the spin became clear.
Worth probably would have done his party more sustained political damage if he were suspended and the criminal investigation allowed to unfold. A cynical opposition would probably have been less vigorous.
In any case, Brent Edwards on RNZ news just reminded listeners that Key dumped Worth on the basis of the case being investigated by the police which Labour had no role in whatsoever. It was also noted again that unlike many previous Ministerial sackings, Key left no possiblity of rehabilitation.
Worth says he will now make his contribution by "helping New Zealand win international trade".
