Interests

1.  Former legal Spokesmanship for the Sensible Sentencing Trust   www.safe-nz.org.nz

2.  Reform of the Criminal Justice System If Clinton can cut US crime back to 1960’s rates, so can New Zealand.

3.  Reform of the Welfare System Poor welfare decisions have rotted the self respect of hundreds of thousands of New Zealanders.

4.  Education Standards I’m a proud member of the Management Board of Samuel Marsden Collegiate School in Wellington.  The high standards achieved by that school are not mysterious.  They come from uncompromising expectations.  We need to ensure every school recaptures that dedication.

5.  Free Speech This right was earned in the blood of heroes.  It is under serious attack from the institutions that should be protecting it – judges, tribunals and commissions.
