MP Database Part 1

This list is in alphabetical order. Where possible we have a short assessment of how sympathetic each MP is to our goals and policies. This is purely a subjective assessment and is open to reassessment/change where needed. Those of most interest to us are the Minister of Justice Simon Power with his associate minister Richard Worth . Also of keen interest to us is the Minister of Corrections, and the Minister of Police - both now Judith Collins.
