Django 1.10 + mysql connector 2.1.4 (no replies)

I have been trying to get django 1.10 to work with mysql for a while now and i have managed to get it working with mysql connector i ran into a few issues that i have been able to figure myself.
A data timezone issue happened and i just changed this in setting.py
USE_TZ = False
I then ran into this issue:

Traceback (most recent call last):

    return "VALUES " + ", ".join([items_sql] * num_values)
TypeError: can't multiply sequence by non-int of type 'tuple'

I take it this has happened because mysql connector isn`t comp with django 1.10 atm.
Does anyone have a work around for this?
