Parliament.

I am a big fan of NZ politics. I enjoy watching Parliamentary tv , writing to MPs and collecting their business cards. I also like to meet members of parliament. Most members are pretty approachable and are happy to answer questions and keep in touch. New MPs that  keep in touch regularly are Simeon Brown and Hamish Walker from National and on the Labour side Angie Warren Clark , Marja Lubeck and Jan Tinetti. At the moment I am very interested in David Seymour's private members bill for the right to die when you are terminally ill. I am in favour of the bill because I watched my father die suffering for 6 weeks. He died of lung cancer in July 2016 after being transferred to Christchurch then back to Nelson. But I do think that the Bill needs some work on it.
