I do seem to be getting somewhat radical as I get older - I think it should be required that anyone wanting to become a politician should:

1) Immediately relinquish any properties apart from one house which is where they actually live when not in Wellington (those from outside Wellington can be provided with a very modest Kainga Ora house to live in at a reasonable rent, while in parliament) & one other [property which is a bach/holiday home. And I don't mean transfer to to family/friends, or somehow 'hide' it.

2) They also should imo be required to live on the same amount as the lowest benefit/wage for at least 3 months each year (over winter) so that they remain in touch with the reality of life for many of those they claim to represent.


3) Perhaps they should also be required to work at a less desirable part time job for a few hours each month - cleaning seems an excellent idea, & should ensure they remain very down to earth.

I'm not altogether sure whether or not I'm serious about these - but it certainly wouldn't do that lot in the beehive any harm if we insisted they abide by these conditions; once it had been run past a group of lawyers to make quite sure there were no loopholes for them to slime their way out of anything...

They should be legally required to list properties very publicly at the time they enter politics, with six monthly updates.

in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
