New MPs to represent Christchurch

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

Christchurch could end up with six new faces in Parliament, depending which way special votes go.

Christchurch could end up with six new faces in Parliament, depending which way special votes go.

Former television producer Reuben Davidson, small business owner Laura Trask, freshwater ecologist Lan Pham and health researcher Hamish Campbell have all made it as either electorate or list MPs, and they all have Christchurch top of mind.

You could also add a doctor to the list if National’s Vanessa Weenink manages to hold on to her majority in Banks Peninsula after the special votes are counted.

Kahurangi Carter, the Green Party’s candidate for Christchurch Central, is another waiting on the results of the specials to confirm her place.

It has begun.

Todd's Total Property Services has just completed its first job since making the move from the Taranaki down to Canterbury.

Bill's fence had taken a beating with the recent wind, rails gave out and iron went everywhere.

With a quick trip to Bunnings for new rails, bugel screws and roofing screws, a leisurely drive out to Oxford, a few hours labour, some good yarns and a laugh we had the fence fixed up in no time, strengthened a couple of dodgy rails and cut up a downed tree for good measure.

Naturally the neighbour wanted an insurance quote for her back fence which was unfortunately beyond repair. With some luck, the quote will be accepted and I'll be out in Oxford next week!

Looking forward to helping out the good Canterbury folk, spinning yarns and bringing the community together.

Take care out there everyone.

Todd.
