Cam Campion
Cameron John Campion (1943 – 16 October 1995) was a New Zealand politician of the National Party. Member of Parliament Campion won the seat of Wanganui from Labour in 1990; the seat had been held by Russell Marshall, who was retiring. Once in Parliament, Campion quickly became associated with Michael Laws, Hamish MacIntyre and Gilbert Myles in objecting to the monetarist policy of Ruth Richardson, known as Ruthanasia, which the fourth National Government was following. He voted against the 1991 "Mother of all Budgets" and was publicly critical of National's decision to break their election promise to remove the superannuation surcharge. When Myles and MacIntyre founded the breakaway Liberal Party Campion was widely tipped to follow them into the new party. Campion said that he had not yet given up on National and was still "flat out" trying to change National's policy direction.

The redistribution created 15 additional electorates with between one and three members, and the electorate was split into two separate electorates: the electorate and the Wanganui electorate, with one member each. Population centres The current electorate is based on the urban area of Whanganui, the towns Ōpunake and Hāwera, and smaller centres Kaponga, Eltham, Normanby, Manaia, Patea and Waverley; broadly speaking, the Whanganui and ...

People Educated At Whanganui Collegiate School
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts.
