I'm Back!

I'm Back!

I have spent two years with the team working Epsom. The hard work is paying off.

I have spent a year get ACT's anti-Red Tape Regulatory Responsiblity Bill through Parliament. I believe that we can pass a Bill before the election that will be progress and we have improved the drafting of the original Bill for passing post-election.

I have spent two years getting myself into shape for this election. I'm leaner, fitter, stronger.

ACT has spent two years studying and planning our MMP strategy.

I spent the Christmas break around New Zealand meeting people and doing as many physical activities as I could: bungied off Auckland Harbour Bridge, tramped the Humpridge track, canoed the Wanganui River, parachuted from 15,000 feet at Rotorua, rafted the Upper Buller Gorge.

I spent January with the Board and Party finalising ACT's election year strategy.

It's all looking good.

I haven't gone to Waitangi this year. I have been flat stick getting everything done. Instead I am giving my first speech of the year at Remuera Rackets Club at a BBQ ACT has organised. I will post my speech later today.

It's good to be back. Thank goodness it's election year.
