The hostile culture of Parliament has broken people and careers.


Is there a better way to conduct the politics of the nation? Can our adversarial political system be changed?


Former MPs will debate the motion: Kiri Allan (Ngāti Ranginui, Ngāi Te Rangi, Ngāti Tūwharetoa, Te Rarawa), Marilyn Waring, Ron Mark (Ron’s iwi include: Ngāti Kahungunu, Ngāti Porou, Ngāti Raukawa) and Rick Barker.


Our speaker is veteran political reporter Richard Harman.

Generously sponsored by Christine and David Kernohan.
