Dame Cath was a very loyal and firm Labour supporter. She came from a part of the Waikato known as Whataroa and she went to Matamata College, as did I, but, obviously, in different years. She and I would often discuss matters such as politics in Matamata. We were both young—well, obviously, not at the same time—girls who went to college and we were probably the only ones from Labour homes in our classes, so I think she always found that quite amusing that I ended up being, as she often called it, a Tory. It's not a term I normally use, but I'll give her that one, just once.
