Spokesperson Finance

David graduated from University of Auckland in electrical engineering and philosophy, after which he spent time ion Canada as a policy analyst for a Think tank. After a number of years in Canada he returned to NZ and was first elected in 2014

David believes:

Government should be there to help in the hardest of times, but it should not breed dependence or try to impose some people’s vision of the good life on others. When the government taxes and funds services, such as education, it should give people a choice of provider.

On social issues, people should be able to live (and die) as they please so long as they are not harming anyone else.
