"London has some of the most expensive property in the world and the cost of the lease is in line with what you would expect to pay for properties in that area, " he said. - very true.

Where do you expect him to live? Woolwich? Harlesden? Kentish Town? Hackney?

Labour foreign affairs spokesman Phil Goff said there was no reason Dr Smith could not stay in the high commissioner's house until it was sold .

"If they were intending to sell, then surely the high commissioner could live in the property pending the sale of the property and save taxpayers' money," he said .

The four-bedroom home, valued at £5 . 5m, was bought about 10 years ago under the former Labour government, while Goff was foreign minister .

Alternately, he could turn the place INTO a backpackers for Kiwi's ... this would reduce the rent by around a £100 a week ... :D
