"You can go back to Jami-Lee Ross, Hamish Walker, Andrew Falloon, we had a leak just before the election, leadership issues," he told Chris Lynch. "Quite rightly Judith Collins, who I 100 per cent support, has said we are going to have to have a review and a bit of a reset." National Party support in the electorate also dropped from 53.5 per cent in the 2017 election, to 28.7 per cent in 2020. He said he was humbled by the support he received in his Waimakariri electorate which returned him to Parliament. Labour was the big winner in greater Christchurch this election with nearly all of the seats going to the party.
