Most of all, I want to thank the people of New Plymouth, of Waitara, of Ōākura, of Ōpunake, and everywhere in between for putting your trust in me. Our electorate is blessed with natural beauty, resources, and talented, hard-working, down-to-earth people. To my constituents, as your member of Parliament I will work for you all. I will be an MP for you, even if you voted for me or did not vote for me, and I am brimming with ideas and how we can bring the possibilities of our community together; my door is always open. My vision for New Plymouth is a city that leads New Zealand's green energy future, that we ensure that it is a just transition. I will continue to ensure that everyone has a place to call home, that we have a world-class medical-care system for our people in our region, and that our communities rediscover and reimagine the connectedness between neighbours and communities. I want to serve our region and our country, where it's not about just talking about issues and problems but it's talking about possibilities and the assets of the people within our communities.
